Ok I will completely take back what I said about Harvin. Making the kind of moves like the new EA video displays is not Percy's style, but he does have the capability. If you watch the video drlw322 posted, on almost every play he is just outrunning guys, or running through arm tackles. He does make two sweet jukes on one play on the reverse against Tennessee at 1:30 of the video. And then another juke two plays later against Georgia. Other than that, you don't see him throwing shoulder fakes, spinning (unless the hit sent him into the spin), spin-and-counter-spinning. He is generally a one-cut runner, not a guy who sets up moves with other moves like the EA/McFadden video demonstrates. I love Florida, I am a big Harvin fan and have seen just about every play he has made. It was wrong of me to say that he doesn't excel at making moves, and his agility is tremendous. But his tendency is 99% straight-ahead, north-south. That's something maybe for EA to consider... along with fixing the problem where CPU power backs still try to run outside a lot, they should give runners some kind of a style rating such some guys dance around a lot and other guys like Percy will almost always just go.

I agree, the thing is, he is so fast, he just outruns everyone most of the time, but when juking is necessary, he can do it just as well as almost anyone.

Does anyone know what system these videos were for? Was it last gen or current gen? It looked like XBox to me...I know it's a VERY early build, but it really looked washed out.

EA will not be developing an Xbox game this year from what I understand. PS2 yes, Xbox nope. This is 360 or PS3.

could be wii......haha that was a joke. From the way it looks and the fact they port from the 360, I'd assume it was that

Sadly, I already know I'm going to be standing outside of GameStop at Midnight for this, and then I'm going to be uber depressed for spending 60 bucks on a game worth 15-25 dollars.

Be strong like me and not buy it. I mean if I get it for my birthday, then I'll play it just to see how bad it is this year, but I am not wasting my money on that. I'm spending it on Backbreaker, which will keep my football needs in check.
