Not trying to start anything, b/c I'm a Madden fan, too.

But this game is going to SORELY miss the progressive lighting that is used in NCAA.

I dont give EA alot of props, but it is truly unbelievable. It's like you're playing 4 different games the way it changes after each quarter. The way the helmets look when it's partly cloudy 3:30, and beginning to get darker after halftime or so, and the way the grass looks when it overcast vs when the stadium lights turn on. You really do feel you're playing in the place you're playing in, somehow.

There's a pic thread in the NCAA forum if you want to see.

I just dont understand why EA can't make certain things as mandatory shares between the two games. The games should be seamless transitions from one to the other in many ways. It'd really make the customer want to buy BOTH(if they like cfb and nfl) instead of picking and choosing whichever one has certain core features.
