Oh man..this article put a HUGE SMILE on my face. One of the most glaring problems with Madden football games as far back as i can remember "seriously" has been the deadness of the game..no "soul", no "excitement" ..nodda, nothing, nathan..just pure dullness. Finally i see a new enthusiasm here with the presentation dept with madden which makes me smile.
I love the idea of adding both a boat load of cutscenes and various camera angles to mix up the entire deal here ..this is exactly how to make the cutscenes from repeating way to quickly throughout playing this game. Its going to boost the excitment level up a huge amount with the combination of the new play-by-play with the fresh new voices. Getting rid of gus and chris was a godsend ..seriously..i thought Chris was ok when he chimed in but gus....oh my goodness did that backfire so bad with madden. Now i heard a bit of the new commentary and i must say it sounds blistful to say the least. This will really make madden feel like a new revamped game presentation-wise along with the new HDR lighting of course.
Im excited..my wishes have been answered..
the only thing i personally would love to see now is the ability to break tackles by quickly pressing a button to shake loose from a tackle and pressing a button to take down a ball carrier....this needs to be added to madden ..seriously..this tiny option would make so many gamers happy..i just KNOW IT!
