Madden NFL 11 and Gus Johnson Confirmation?

11:23 AM - April 23, 2010 by Steve_OS

It all started with Smashman hearing Gus Johnson in the Drew Brees announcement trailer. Then even more heads started to turn with him involved in the recent Madden NFL 11 exclusive debut trailer.

Check out the details from Gamestop on the PSP version of Madden NFL 11. Surely this can't be just a PSP exclusive, right? Big thanks to @esilk5 for the keen eyes.

This probably all but seals it.

Update: Gamestop removed the Gus Johnson text, but we still have it here, if you missed it.

WTF!? Is that real madden footage+audio. Or is it real life audio interspliced with Madden footage.

If thats real. Then omg. That is ridiculously amazing.

# 6 Danimal @ 04/23/10 12:16 PM

I'm pretty sure that is real audio laid over a Madden 10 clip.

Correct. It's gonna be awesome this year though!

This is getting better and better each week. The animation of Brees pumping up his team mates at the beginning was phenomenal!!! Words can't describe. And the audio is clear and the emotion is there!

You might want to edit your post and put that in there to avoid confusion.

Excellent clips of gameplay. Obviously on Pro difficulty, though.

# 12 Blazelore @ 04/23/10 12:24 PM

If you watched the Cover athelte blog with Brees he says they went into the studio to record his game chant. It even shows him in the booth doing it so I do believe thats actually in the game.

Gus Johnson as the play-by-play man will make the game so much more fun.

Gus is in. You can hear him on the Bush run, the Pierre Thomas run, and on the deep throw in the video. Also it sounds as though the crowd gets louder on the Bush TD run as he breaks away towards the end of the video.

That mid-air collision is so much better than last year.

Lol that should be the last thing you think of when you think about Gus Johnson. He's not that great over there because he's just learning the sport of MMA. Guy is easily the best commentator in football and college basketball.

I hope the Chris Johnson line made it into the game.

# 17 Klocker @ 04/23/10 01:50 PM

great great news!

# 18 Checmate101 @ 04/23/10 01:57 PM

Love Gus Johnson is in it....hope he brings that same excitment to Madden 11..even though he did it for the basketball game.

# 19 Checmate101 @ 04/23/10 02:04 PM

Hope this line makes it in from this Chris Johnson run "He's got getting away from the Cops speed"

# 20 SouthernBrick @ 04/23/10 02:08 PM

God I hope this is true.

He sounds like the guy who might of done the Brandon Stokley catch in the last seconds of the Broncos vs Bengals but, I'm not sure though.

Yep guess that was him.
