i doubt it. it sounds more core gameplay orientated rather than feature.

i hope they've upgraded it to buggery this year though.

I wonder if it has something to do with Xbox Kinect. That would be my hunch. Anyways, I will be looking intently on Wednesday. This is the last season for Ray Lewis and possible for Ed Reed, I would like to have a football game that I actually enjoy the hell out of with them in it before they retire. This game does not have to be 2k5, but I hope it can give me the feeling I had every time I fired that game up to play, whether against the cpu, online league LFL or online lobby game. If it can reproduce that type of experience I'll be satisfied. I'll find out through Season Pass.

I could be wrong, but I wouldn't think Kinect would be a "Monumental change in gameplay, that creates the most authentic football experience to date.''

Here's why, for people like me that don't have Kinect it doesn't change a thing.

I'm guessing the new unrevealed gameplay feature is Kinect-related as well. Frankly, I'd be tempted to try out the Kinect for vocal playcalling and line reads / audibles if such were implemented.

EDIT: another thing that'd be cool to do via Kinect is drawing up one's own passing plays in the dirt; maybe install this feature in tandem with a full-blown create-a-play, and allow created plays to be properly sorted in custom playbooks and gameplans? I'm musing aloud here, admittedly.

I am openly wondering what the "connected careers" feature is, and if it means that we ultimately will have a full-featured online franchise, which is my biggest want for this game by far.

" blurring the line between virtual and reality."
Is why I believe it will be Kinect. I dont have Kinect and dont plan on it either.
I cant wait for Wed though, even though I have class all day

Monumental change? That is some really strong words, I wonder what this could be. I am really hoping for an all new movement sytem. Could they POSSIBLY be going all out and adding a full fledged physics system to this game?

I doubt it, but time will tell.....

I hope you are wrong, but I have a feeling you are correct.
