I dont want to be a stickler and im not complaining about it, but does the right leg on #53 for the Bears look like a toothpick? Haha.

You're right, Maddens thighs and feet have always been off.

Yeah it does...lol. Sure it will be fixed though. I don't believe Ian would leave it looking like that because its extremely noticeable.

Looking at it more closely though, you can see the video is cut on the back of Tillman's jersey. Maybe the image of his lower leg is distorted due to the video being cut in that area and making it look like a toothpick???

I must say, I never realized the kind of visual appeal that colored cleats could add to the game. It really brings that extra something as far as realism goes. Great job getting that in Ian!

On another note, I'm really impressed with the lighting and the animations. If the Pro-Tak animations look so good now, imagine when the game is fully tuned.

One thing that has me worried though is the frequency of those tackles. I'm wondering how often we will be seeing these scrums in a real game. I really hope not as often as Phil is making it seem. It would be a major disappointment to see these group hugs every other play, especially when I play with the Eagles and we have no power backs on that squad. I really hope they keep it well balanced so it doesn't turn into a rugby game.

Possibly, but why would everything around his leg be visible and the background

Quick comparison of gang tackling screens taken from Madden 09 and Madden 10 videos. Little improvement if any. Keep it up Madden dev team! DOF, chain gang, colored cleats, hand towels, much better lighting, multiple people in on the tackle, the grass is greener (literally and figuratively).
