Same goes for the width of the Chiefs shoulder stripe.

The very first screenshot, Romo is just stood there like a statue and does not even seem to be looking at the ball.

2 pics that really stand out for me here, as well as how they play out in the video:

1st is the first pic of Baltimore's Rice making a good cut inside, but what I like best is the Steeler's LB #56 avoiding a block in pursuit of the RB...Nice block avoidance instead of being sucked into engagement....

2nd is the last pic of Tampa Bay's RB Martin: what I see here that I like is not Martin's running as much as the larger Offensive lineman blowing up the smaller defender on the block....Shows some promise to me...

EDIT: I also see that Buccaneers block by the lineman as highlighting a bit of the new blocking logic...It would appear the lineman saw the closet threat and took it out....

Love the new moves RBs will get, Im assuming its for anyone your running with. Hopefully its not for RBs only. I like the fact that you can stumble and regain balance.

The very first screenshot, Romo is just stood there like a station and does not even seem to be looking at the ball.

He is busy planning out the design of the golf course he is going to build with the money he pilfered from JJ in his contract extension...

Too many years idolizing the worst big game QB in NFL history (Brett Favor for the other team) has him on track to eclipse the "ole gunslinger" in games blown...

I see Madden got one of the face mask (Jamaal Charles) we want on NCAA ...

The graphics look improved somewhat, always good to see. I'm much more concerned about Connected Franchise though.

We'll find out in two days, at least partially.

I am too the point where I think the graphics have been good enough. I wish one year the graphics stayed exactly the same and focused on other areas. I know they have different departments, but maybe they should reallocate some of their resources.

Dont get me wrong, the game does look great froma screen shot perspective

Everyone in this picture is hunched over. Man I can't wait to see how good this looks in motion when/if they change the running animations back to PS2/XBOX days, and fix the locomotion.

This maybe completely wrong but the more I look at the way people say the players a re "hunched over", the more I start wondering how much this have to do with sharing the tech (ANT) from games like NHL, FIFA and even NBA Live. Maybe the issue is, in those games, especially NHL, the player are often inherently hunched over in motion due to the nature of the sport but not football. They are carrying the football so they don't need to hunch over to interact or make moves with it, like the other EA sports games do to interact with their respective ball/puck.

Could this be the reason behind the hunched over running in Madden, they need a separate animation tool for running in the football game?
