Phenomenal job Ian! I actually think we will all be blown away with the presentation of Madden this year. They have been very tight lipped about anything to do with presentation, and I would bet that they are going to blow the doors off next weekend and the remaining weeks.

Just please, please make the crowd interaction 100X better then it was last year. The biggest part of immersion in sports is how loud and passionate fans get at the games. The crowd should roar at good things that happen for the home team, and react accordingly to a big play, or turnover.

When we score a TD at home we should barely be able to hear our friend next to us on the couch, because the crowd is cheering so loud through the speakers. When the opposing team scores we should be able to hear a pin drop. It would also be great if the crowd would get progressively louder as a big play develops, and obviously 3rd and 4th downs should be crazy.

Please make this happen this year Ian

Call me crazy but I think Flyovers should be for The Big Games (Superbowl, Conference Finals) BUT I think a really nice touch would be to add them too Monday/Sunday Night Football. This would be a really cool touch for the night games.

This is actually more where I'm leaning currently. Though accurate that there are flyovers for most all open stadiums in many games, we are going for more of a broadcast feel rather than a "you're there" feel, so if we show it all the time it will not be special at all during the big games. Networks don't often show the fly over as part of the broadcast unless it's a really big game.
