The craziest thing about these screens? (As far as I know), They're NOT EVEN RETAIL GRADE. RETAIL graphics are gonna blow you away this year it looks like.

I don't think it mattered that berman or espn were slapped on it. Look at the announcing team. It had two studio actors and it was pretty solid. I think people liked the halftime show because of the set up of it. It looked like TV.

And as I stated earlier in the thread people combine the halftime show with the weekly sports center show and that's where it's better than Madden. Just due to the fact that madden does not have a weekly show at all nor less one that includes scores, highlights, injury updates, draft info, etc

Also, not sure how others feel but in cfm if the halftime show doesn't include other scores I would rather have a weekly recap show than a halftime one.

Looking forward to the day in Madden when the animations catch up with the graphics.

You know, the FIFA team already said after seeing the power of the PS4 has given them the power to add new animations and blend animations to make more organic and natural looking footballer movements. (Yes, I know it's Soccer to us haha). But why can't the Madden team realize this? Blend animations, or add new ones. BETTER YET, rip the old animation base out and start fresh! The goal is too MAKE IT LOOK ORGANIC AND REALISTIC! NOT ROBOTIC. (I think if the MLB team can rip out the entire ball physics codebase and rewrite it from scratch in ONE (1) dev cycle, then the animation team for Madden can step their game up too.)

I think once they scrap their animation system and completely re-do with natural, more human like movement that looks like players have weight, and aren't hovering on the grass, then Madden will be where it needs to be for a current gen football game. Until then, it won't be, because they keep putting band-aids on a broken leg.

They need to take advantage of the new Ignite Engine that they built to IMPLICITLY TAKE CARE OF THIS PROBLEM! SMH
