Madden NFL 12 Video - Peyton Hillis Goes Beast Mode

[Indiansbro]

Check out the Madden NFL 12 article, over at Wired, where they talk about how the game is poised for unprecedented realism. They've also posted the following video.

Peyton Hillis basically went into beast mode in this video, lol

Good find. Gotta admit, the new collision system actually looks good across the board. Running animations look better and I'm sure that this video was set up this way but no no with so many broken tackles lol

I find the video a bit scary with Tiburon's record for implementing new features. If this is what we can expect from the collision system, I'd say we'd have 10+ threads of complains here on OS come mid-September.

Peyton Hillis is a big, strong RB/FB-hybrid, but the defenders should be able to hold on and slow him down long enough for other tacklers to join in. In the the video, defenders are instantly brushed aside as he runs through.

I'd like to have seen a defender grab and hold on to him for a few seconds - Hillis would still moving forward because of his momentum. Maybe they'll implement that next year as a new feature

(same video, but different runs)

I'm pretty sure they just set it up that way for the video. Hillis won't be that good in the game. The running animations are looking better though.

Only time will tell if all these features have been implemented properly.

They probably have that set on Rookie so they can show case the hitting and collision system.
