    I'm not sure if they are supposed to talk over the highlights, but 4 demo games and nothing yet for me. I would love to see this kind of stuff in the game though. Authentic to me is gameplay and presentation coming together as a complete package to give me that NFL experience I haven't had since the 2K series and in no way were they perfect either so like I said it's not a put down, just an example.

    Thank you for taking the time to recognize my posts and concerns. It's appreciated you guys are in the trenches today hearing us.

    NFL2K5 presentation pre,half,post game style even on "play now" games would be the best thing I could ask for and finally make me put that game on the shelf for good.

      Chase,

      Tremendous job on the audio for Madden 13! You knocked it out of the park. Always room for improvement though...

        Hahahaha. I haven't seen him in ages. I'm not on as much anymore but I still get on there. Maybe Madden? We can talk about the kick *** audio production.

          I just finished my first game of the demo. I played as the Redskins and defeated the Seahawks 17-7. I played on All-Pro with default settings except for game speed which I dropped down to "slow".

          The pre-game open is pretty nice. They show the teams' logos and then focus on some of the key players. I'd rather they do what NBA 2K does in the open when they show on-court highlights of the players before the game, but I still enjoyed the open.

          Nantz and Simms are a definite improvement over Johnson and Collinsworth. I spent most of last year with the commentary turned off, I've only played one game so far, but I expect I won't have to do that this year. The only mistake I noticed was when I brought a pick back for a TD and Nantz said "Time for the no-huddle offense". Other than that I enjoyed the commentary.

          The gameplay feels improved over M12. I didn't notice any of the unbelievable moments that I dealt with in 12. Last year the CPU would always bomb it on 3rd and long and my DBs would do nothing to stop it. This situation came up once in my playthrough and both the CB I was controlling and the safety went for the ball and broke up the pass.

          I've only played one game so it's too early to tell, but overall it feels like the on-field aspect of M13 is an improvement over M12.

            I played All-Pro 2k8 for the first time ever earlier today, and I can see what all the "hoopla" is about. It's a genuinely fun game based on gameplay, and the commentary isn't bad either. The graphics are just a tad bit dated. Hopefully for the sake of the betterment of madden they will acquire a joint NFL license really soon.

              agree that the audio is one of the best parts of this game in terms of upgrades. really enjoying the crowd noise and commentary.

                This is actually my first madden game in a while, so I have to catch up. But I've notice the game plays better on slow or very slow game speed.

I'd also like to hear Jim and Phil talk about what's happening around the league during the games and have game breaks with score updates around the league. They also should talk about the Playoff picture and mvp races as you get late into your season.
                  I'd like them to do something similar to NHL - tell me what each team was doing well and more specifically what they could do better. On top of that, tell me how to do that better... more Man coverage, double team player X, etc. The half-time show I saw was not impressive but the lack of real gameplay highlights might just be because it's the demo, I have no idea.

                    This is very true...we all want a perfect football game but everyones opinion of perfect is different.

                    Personally, my biggest thing is on the field action, presentation and commentary is fine and dandy but I want it to look and play like a football game. That starts with fixing the running and way players move and interact with each. I am excited that they are finally going to focus on OL/DL interaction and address the running on skates issue thats been inherent in Madden since day 1. If they fix these two things and leave everything as is with a few tweaks here and there I will be satisfied.

                    Of course the infinity engine is going to have some glitches, some rag dolling but real physics is a great start. I played backbreaker which was a horrible game but when you ran the ball when the physics kicked in the way it was supposed it was a thing of beauty. The contact and fight for the extra yard was very realistic but those moments were too far and between so lets hope that infinity has more of the perfect moments instead of the silly.

                        Holy crap. First thing I noticed soon as I started, this game is SO smooth compared to previous years.

                        The infinity engine just makes this game so much better.

                        Only have time to play a quater but those are the first things I noticed. Will get better impressions later.

                          Gameplay is great, but overall I need more presentation aspects and a true broadcast style presentation. There was a key element in 2K's camera's that EA just hasn't captured yet. The overall emotion in Madden is lacking as well, most of the cut scenes, feel like they were planted, there is no flow to them and that's where some of the problems begin, and the games package begins to unravel and you lose the authenticity of an NFL broadcast.

                            Played two games and had a DPI called against the cpu during the second game. It was called on the MLB covering my TE on a curl route over the middle.

                                Just had Eli drop back from midfield attempt to throw the ball and it shot into the air like a rocket offscreen going backwards until it reach my endzone and I got awarded a safety.
