Lets take NCAA for example. The early videos and clips suggested that it was much of the same as last year.

In reference to NCAA gameplay vid you are speaking of, did you see any variances in QB animation from any other vid? How about for the RB? Lets try the WR variances in catching the ball? Did anything stand out to you gameplay wise that said, "wow that was different! He THREW/RAN/ CAUGHT/TACKLED different than any other player". If you did, please direct me to the vid you saw. Bottom-line, yes the game looks wonderful, but is the actual personality of the gameplay going to shine? Am I going to see Larry Johnson make a juke move different from Reggie Bush??? Am I going to see Romo sling it side arm from the hip??? Madden's gameplay has been redundant and stale for years!! Don't put new wrapping paper on an old gift!!! Give me new from inside out!

Umm.....probably not, maybe 2011...but by then we will probably be seeing some target renders on another set of new consoles

well they do have players unique running stances. I hear what your saying but with the last 3 maddens being what they were, I just want a good madden game, which this year looks like it can be. Walk before you can run

I didn't see anyone tackle/catch/throw/run different from any other player, nor was I expecting them to. I just wanted the game to be better this year then last, with improvements to some of the areas that it was lacking in. And judging from the IGN video, we got that.

And I can't answer these questions yet, as I have not played the game nor seen extensive video of the gameplay yet.

Bottom line is that no matter what I say or what positives I or anyone else points out about the game, you're going to find something wrong with it. So I'll continue to look at the positives and accept the negatives and you can look at the negatives and ignore the positives and we'll both be happy.

Re: Madden NFL 09 Comparison Video

looks tight as do the Ian vids... does anyone know if NCAA is getting the same treatment? tackling, running, lighting etc

I've seen the vids of NCAA but they are not showcasing the same stuff (marketing?)

To some degree yes. But Madden seems to be taking the bigger "leap".
