Madden NFL 10 Gameplay Video: Eagles @ Cowboys (IGN)

[Illustrator76]

I have tons of respect for Ian and his team and I haven't/won't say anything bad about them. Those guys have proven that they REALLY care about making the best football game in the universe. With all that being said, I'm actually a little disappointed after looking at this video. The graphics look phenomenal, but the game just doesn't look very realistic in motion and that RUINS the immersion for me.

The gameplay also LOOKED like the same old Madden with Pro-Tak slapped on (even though I KNOW this isn't the case at all). I don't know, it just didn't move or feel as realistic and as well paced as "other games" do. Again, I know Ian and his team are busting their "bottoms" to put out a great product, so I do hope that I am wrong and that this game is everything we are hoping it will be come launch day....

+1 It just doesn't flow at all like a real game of football.

Also what's with the crowd. It looked more like an NCAA game in that video. Everyone the same color

A couple gripes from the IGN video: 1. WTF was with Jenkins on that blitz, darting past McNabb like a lost little Peewee player? I realize he was user controlled, but I thought the whole procedural awareness was going to have guys looking at their target (in this case, the QB while on the blitz). Looked very unrealistic. 2. As another user mentioned, the strafing looked a bit arcadey (or 09ish).

This has already been asked and answered 100 times he is user controlled, it's just an advertisement video people, get over it already, the sky is not falling...

One other thing, everyone likes to critique the game yet can't even tell a user controlled player from one controlled by the AI, I think this alone brings into question a lot of the other ''alleged'' flaws pointed out in the game.

I think it is looking great, sure there will be some problems however nothing well ever be perfect & for some people to believe it will is hilarious...

Yes. You're correct. I think from now on, everybody that has a negative opinion on the way this game looks should be quiet. That way, Ian and co can have no feedback to work with and we can have a better game without the community help. In actual fact; why don't we close down these forums; there really is no need for them ,as the game will never, as you say, be perfect.

The Refs Are pointing in the right direction on the fumble recovery. Pay attention

Great Idea, you should start it off by being the first, or better yet know what they are looking at before talking...
