BRING BACK LEE CORSO!!! "Ahhh F*** IT!" , "he took that back like a bad christmas present"

The only thing I noticed on the motion blur video was the horrible running animations of the special teams LOL.

The sound clips were pretty good though.

I just listened to the Florida State samples. WOW, what a difference. There is going to be a big difference in the sound of the game this year.

For what feels like the hundredth time...how can anyone be complaining about gameplay and animations from a 15 second clip of an unpolished product? All we saw as of now is what they showed us in the SIGHTS AND SOUNDS webcast, and I think most of us would agree in saying that stuff was pretty promising. Wait until April 17th before you start incoherently bashing the gameplay and animations.

Exactly. Let's focus on what's being presented to us, guys. If you, as a poster, cannot do this and address what's in front of you, just don't post at all and save it for later. The "RAA, ME ANGRY" stuff is just so old at this point.

Promising start, but this isn't the meat of the game for most of us.

Sights and Sounds doesn't sell me on the game, but it certainly doesn't hurt their chances either.

What was cool is that they were open to taking sound in a new direction. I think that will make a big difference in the game.

I hope they put as much (and more) effort into gameplay and dynasty & recruiting. Looking forward to hearing about the "meat" of the game!

Good post man, people need to get a grip.

Inductive reasoning.

Hume's got a great critique of it, but it's never failed me before...

Definitely understand and feel what you're saying, but seeing all this stuff for so long, there has never been a huge difference in what we see early in these type of videos, and what we see later. I definitely agree that we should wait until the 17th, but I can't blame people for being disappointed or skeptical.

Exactly...I can speak for myself in saying that I've been following this franchise and the Madden franchise since the first were created (late 80's I believe). And more specifically over the last 10 years of pre-release internet videos and you're exactly right, if it's the videos, it's in the game. I haven't been pleasantly surprised once on next gen and I probably won't be again. It's like I have "battered wife syndrome"...I've convinced myself that EA will change and things will be better next time so I keep coming back only to take another back hand to the chops from EA.

A huge "meh" Was this supposed to get us excited?

Sure, the lighting/textures will look nice & the crowds might sound better, but the main points here being motion blur (is this need for speed?) and USC Song Girls does not bode well. Where is the improvement on ESPN? Halftime anything? Situational crowd sounds? More info on how Kirk/Nessler will be better? And how many years are they gonna talk about dynamic lighting?


I realize it's "early" but lets look at this:

• Running animations are still really, really bad
• I'm guessing no new cleats/equipment
• The football, from what I can see is still gigantic
• Sidelines have not been touched
• Player models are still huge/bulky

Motion Blur lol

It's how it usually goes. They throw a fresh coat of paint on top and everything goes gaga. Then when the paint starts to peel we see the final product. The same game since 2010 lol.

When the announcer announced the score, it still sounded very robotic.

I love how we get blogs about sights and sounds, and some people start to complain about things that are completely unrelated to the blogs, like player animations and things they haven't gotten around to showing yet.

Thank you! I don't get how you guys are getting this secret footage of the NCAA 13 running animations and gameplay...I'd love to know where that is! That stuff hasn't been released to the public yet. Oh? You're referring to the 5 seconds of a clip meant to focus on the presentation of awards that quickly flashed what you think is gameplay? Seriously guys...calm down until the 17th, as Broncos said earlier, all this "ME ANGRY...NCAA Y U SUCK SO MUCH?!?!?!?!?!" is really getting old, and isn't warranted.

I'm all for being critical, but how can you be critical of what you haven't seen yet? All we have to be critical of is the Sights and Sounds webcast, which showed me a lot of good things and that the series is headed in the right direction (with the sound at least.)

I see where you are coming from and I used to feel the same way. However, I can see you are new to this site. Those of us who have been here for a long time have seen this all before. Promises of "its an early build" and "work in progress" dont cut it any more. They say the same things year after year and everytime we are let down when the final product is the same or WORSE then what they were previously showing. Then the developers begin their "we ran out of time, wait until next year!"

I signed up to this website in 2006 and used to love following the development of Madden. I used to get so excited at every little bit of information that came out. As consumers you can only buy into the hype so many times before you get fed up.

I believe that the foundation of the game was rushed to push out Madden '06 in the first year if next-gen. Since then they have been trying to build on that very flawed foundation but it is just to archaic and flawed to make a good game. My hope is that EA is already full steam ahead developing a new game engine for the new XBOX and Playstation coming out in the next year or two. The developers are not stupid and they know this generation of football games has been a complete disaster. I truly hope they do not let this happen again.....
