I agree, its to early for me to judge Madden10 based on one video. I saw some nice things in the video, the only thing that bothered me was the stiffness and robotic movement of the QB, RB, and WR's. Fellas we really need to see some more gameplay videos before we nitpick and judge it. I want this game to be great just like everyone else, but we can't start firing guns already. Like I said it was a nice video, the only thing that worried me is the stiffness of the players and the use of some old traditional Madden animations, but I did see a few animations I never saw before which was good. Hopefully from now till July and Ian and devs will iron and smooth somethings out, especially the stiffness of the players running and movements.

Same here my man...same here!! That looked phoenomenal!!

Now lets see that presentation

I'm glad I saw a 4-man gang-tackle for once, and an opposing player trying to push the whole pack.

Yay - gang tackles with more then 2 tacklers!!

And Sweed pushing the pile!

So 6 guys around the one ball.

Here's a question I'd like answered. Why do the players in the screen shots look so much better then what I saw in that trailer?

Agreed. My biggest gripe from previous versions was the ridiculous animations (or lack thereof) and their effect on gameplay, along with cheese. It seems like they placed most off their emphasis on changing the bonehead plays (fullback dive, qb sneak, etc) and replacing stupid animations with procedural awareness. I think the graphics will get more polished, the framerate will be smoothed out, and we will see more features and changes in the game that will make it the best next gen Madden yet.

Also, I don't remember seeing ANY pancakes. There were times where the outside rushers were pushed down, but no "knock em off their feet and put em on their backs" pancaks. I haven't read through the thread, but has anybody else noticed this?

It looks mainly like the same old Madden series to me. The movements are still too robotic. I was hoping they would fix the QB animations. A little disappointed so far.
