Madden NFL 10 Video: NFC South

it just looks choppy to me...

it goes into a nice smooth animation of breaking a tackle or being tackled etc...to full speed and turning on a dime as soon as you get out of something..needs to be alot smoother

Well we don't need a big back for short yardage now, just give it to drew on fourth and 2 he's good for it LOL!

haha....and since Drew can truck people I bet Delhomme can avoid turnovers and can outrun half the defense

Just a feeling in my gut, I mean they might be improved, but I still dont think they'll be what everyone is looking for. I'm pretty sure Ian said they were really going to be working on this alot for next year, so thats why I think what we're seeing is what we'll be getting.

i agree there are moments of smooth animations then jittery stiff ones

I'm not that picky about the running animations, the jogging is what's killing me at this point. I just want the players to look like they're running hard when I hold down the sprint button.

Shortening the strides is really all they have to do this year to make me happy.

I think (hope) that we might be alright with the choppiness... at least during gameplay. I was worried at first like you guys, but I went back and watched some gameplay videos during E3. The animations during the game were smooth, but when any replays were shown they looked choppy like in the 'NFC South' video.

So, I'm at least hoping the game plays smooth and it's just the replay choppiness being shown in this 'NFC South' highlight video.

Still annoying that replays can't look smooth if this is the case.
