Great sound/energy but Gus had that too, no??

I think it will sound better because they are both in the same room when they're recording.

And Brandon said that he loves voice acting, which means he will try very hard to make it sound just like he does in a live game. Video games need not only good pbp guys, but good voice actors.

Madden NFL 17 Gets New Commentary Team Featuring Brandon Gaudin & Charles Davis

Sim standard guys talked about this last night on the show so for those of you who haven't heard they talked about how when we ( I was there for this event and can confirm the devs said this, so I said we) went down there last February 2015, and they told us they were going for best in class commentary and according to the show last night that's what they have delivered to us and they said they hadn't even heard the newest lines that Gaudin and Davis has recently recorded and Gaudin told them himself that what you guys have heard was nothing compared to what we recently recorded. They also said that the new sounds on the field and in the crowd are going to blow us away, they said you can tell the difference between the 12th man at Seattle and the other stadiums, they also said you will hear breathing sounds while players are running, footprints, players talking and encouraging each other, example used was a guy told Smitty it's alright man, it's alright when he had dropped a pass, QBs will be calling out the Mike lb again, everything sounds alive, and they compared it to what you hear on NFL films sound fx and mic'd up videos. Pretty exciting stuff IF this all comes to fruition.

Do you know if, team specific, in-stadium sounds/chants have been added to the current ones or is it still the same?

Hopefully this means they brought back a bunch of the authentic QB cadences that disappeared.

Great Point. The ability and desire to bring a high level of enthusiasm to this fictitious universe is much more important, IMO, than having big name guys. This is of course the forte of a good voice actor.

Re: Madden NFL 17 Gets New Commentary Team Featuring Brandon Gaudin & Charles Davis

jfsolo, yes! I believe that many guys have a hard time with it, because they can't "get into it," without seeing a game in front of them. I can do it very well, because I'm visually impaired, so don't need to "see" it, to get the right excitement and stuff. It also takes a good voice, and he's got it, much like John Miller did for mlb 2k. If he does his calls half the way I heard on live clips, we're in for a treat!

Re: Madden NFL 17 Gets New Commentary Team Featuring Brandon Gaudin & Charles Davis

Finally new commentary!!! You guys have no idea how excited I am about this. Simms and Nantz were always very boring commentators and got old quick. I really like Charles Davis.

That's a good question. Plus I would love to see if the in-stadium sounds and charts are a little louder so you can hear them. For instance, Hail to the Redskins you could barely hear on previous versions.

From the video it looks like another year of turning the commentary volume all the way down

In what shape or form did you come to this conclusion? Talk about jumping the gun!

Hasn't everyone else been doing the same thing by saying it's great???

I mean everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but based on what we've heard so far it seems far more likely for it to be great than awful.

Willing to give it a chance is the same thing as saying a promotional video that shows absolutely zero in game retail commentary makes you automatically turning it off?

Blew my mind there.

Come on bro, at least wait until you hear it in action before making that choice.
