Looks beautiful but the commentary is still horrible, waaaay too many pronouns.

I keep watching some of these vids over, now that I'm on my laptop instead of using my phone, in transit to/from work, and these vids are really looking GREAT to me. The game just seems different with the new additions like the collision, tackling, and non-suctioning. Not to mention the new presentation looks WONDERFUL! I am really enjoying and CANNOT WAIT to get my hands on the demo. I can't say it enough, Madden 11 was just SOOO underwhelming and 12 looks to make up for it IN SPADES!! Bring it!

[TreyIM2]

Oh, and I must agree that the commentary needs a FULL overhaul, next year, so I hope EA has those engineers cooking up something marvelous but I'm not complaining. Madden 12 seems like it's implemented enough for me, this year.

This game looks absolutely amazing this year.But there's always a but; the running still looks like crap. This year they say weight and momentum are respected but the way it is so easy to turn on the dime is ridiculous. Players look like they are gliding on Ice. Thats my only gripe. If fixed i can honestly say the 2k5 discussion is over.
May be a game breaker for me.

I've heard them say momentum is improved and you have to play it to experience it and I have heard them say small quick runners such as Best will play differently than power backs, but I have not heard them say weight has anything to do with their physics system.

GRRR. . . the audio bug is still there where the play is described as second and 7 when it's second and 10.

Nit picky, and I love what I'm seeing, but I hope that little detail gets fixed after a year.

I noticed that when Cutler threw long to Hester Gus Johnson got all excited but when Hester caught it Gus just casually said "tackled at the 28" with no enthusiasm at all. Be excited it was a long completion.

Yeah I was wanting to hear "Ohhh what a great catch!!!"

But that is for next year.

Since madden 10 I have been reading "its a early build" when the game is being show cased at E3 or " its on a easy difficult level"
And everytime I buy the game it plays just how I saw it in these so called "early build" E3 vids

Deep down inside I feel this game wont have that "THAT BLOW AWAY" effect until there's a new game engine.

Until then madden will still have these die hard fans believe this pipe dream will come true

I think for most of us that pipe dream died sometime around 2007-08.

Looks like this year's announcers will be Mikael Akerfeldt (Opeth) and Rody Walker (Protest the Hero) for me lol

Disappointing to see that speed is still the only thing that matters in Madden, with Hester beating Tramon Williams on a 60-yard bomb. LAME.

First play of the game, Cullen Jenkins whips the LT from a three man line. FINALLY, a blindside DE winning!!! Would have been even better if it was a fumble. Now hopefully the results are the same in Human vs. CPU matchups and hopefully, the OLB's can be just as disruptive.

Also, on the final play, the Rodgers pick, it looks like the pocket was collapsing pretty nicely.



edit: thought the Jenkins hit was a sack.

Consider, it IS the Bears O-Line.

Sees the Cutler-to-Hester bomb

*Sigh*

Cheesers UNITE!

[JaySmooov]

Man, with every vid that comes out, the game DOES look better and better. The hype train is preparing to leave the station.

[JaySmooov]

I hate how Gus Johnson still butchers Robbie Gould's name.

A lot of announcers butcher names. Ever notice how most announcers completely avoid saying Nnamdi Asomugha's last name? They just say "Nnamdi" most of the time now, haha. But it's just common human error, which I think is good for Madden.

Many times I find myself saying, "his name is such-and-such."

Ahh, a random 2K homer. Never fails.
