Madden NFL 11 Screenshots and First Details (IGN)

A new gripe thread needs to be re-sticked. Those people who have made up their minds already can spend the next 5 months regurgitating the same angry retorts there, instead of infecting every new information thread with repeated posts popping off at Tiburon.

The one good thing about new Madden info is that it quickly reveals which new(occasionally veterans as well) members are petulant children who need to be put on Ignore.

In regards to Ian I enjoyed him on os. He felt like one of us. A gamer which is what we all are. He's like a college roommate. Anyway, I think they still plan on being somewhat active on here simply because they keep mentioning the OS website. I liked the tidbit of info.

I don't see too much griping. I see people saying that they are not impressed with the new info. Most of us have heard these same lines before so forgive us if we're not jumping out of our seat at this "news." Having said that, yes there are a few people that don't know how to express their opinion in a civil manner, but for the most part everyone has just stated what they think about this info. I mean what do you expect when they pretty much say the same thing they've been saying for years. This thread isn't just for people that had good impressions from today's info. It's for all impressions of today's info. Now if tomorrow's blog has some new info or some in game footage of any of this stuff that was released today then you'll most likely see a more positive overall response, but not from this stuff. We've HEARD this plenty of times. We want to SEE it in game.

Note: Since IGN got to release this info first, that pretty much means Madden 11 will get a high review score from them in August.

This one of the first time, news for Madden has not interested me at all. Usually i jump for joy with any tingle of information we get on the next iteration, but this time.....i don't care at all.

Its strange, i enjoyed Madden 10 a lot, one of the best versions i've played, yet i'm not excited at all for the next version, and what actually surprises me the most here are the journalist writing this stuff. It must be really hard trying to be positive or enthusiastic on something that promises so much year to year.

I liked the info given on what they were working on and trying to get rid of. The new screen shots IMO look better than what M10's screen shots did when they first came out. Austin's face definitely looks very life like so that is a plus. I know that animation may have been in M10 but, It doesn't trigger properly and hardly triggers at all, really so hoping that gets fixed. Also player awareness is being worked on and that is definitely a biggie of mine so I'm glad a aspect of that is hopefully being addressed.

The fighting for the ball screen shot did look pretty weird IMO and a bit unrealistic. I'm not falling for the hype this year but, I'm glad the train is rolling. I can only hope some very crucial things get fixed this year and some things taken out.

I didn't expect much but, there was more than I thought in this article so I can;t really complain. Hopefully the blog tomorrow hits on a few different things and not just a saying basically what this IGN article is saying.

Another screen shot would be nice!

(Ladainian Tomlinson in a Jets jersey please)

Tomorrow's blog is going to be about the same catching stuff - IGN wanted an exclusive with us so we gave it to them.

Just figured I'd set the expectations early.

Good to know then.

If Its going to be pretty much the same stuff I think we all deserve at least a Ladainian Tomlinson screen shot for tomorrow...lol.

Okay, so will get new screenshots, a very short video of it in action, or just more in depth info on what IGN released?
