no images in the sig.

I'm thinking maybe that poster means ESPN integration as in menu's, stat overlays, etc. Instead of just the one game overlay on the screen.

I'm not gonna speculate on the espn blog but....


HOW did the video get past the marketing team. I can't give them the benefit of the doubt on this. How stupid would it be to quasi-announce new presentation this early, and in that video.

So you're saying that everyone getting excited over stat overlays? Highly doubtful. We're expecting some kind of presentation changes, ala M10. And a blurry *** picture isnt good enough for me. Sorry if this doesnt excited me, or makes me question. I'm just as hopeful as anyone else. I buy these games almost every year, and just for you i dug out my copies of NCAA 07, 08; Madden 07, 08; NBA Live 07; and guess what? Back in '07 they had ESPN integration, kinda funny huh?

How would they integrate ESPN presentation into the menus? And I don't see why they'd include a score banner from ESPN, but no overlays. I think its safe to say we'll have ESPN presentation.

Also, Madden 10 introduced a new score banner to the series last year and a video released it earlier than EA anticipated showing it and they ended up spilling the beans rather quickly in a blog soon after the video. Maybe we'll get a blog soon on this?!

You mean on the cover where it says "Featuring ESPN"? Thats for the ESPN Ticker. Thats when they started doing that and radio updates. The covers still have that if I remember correctly too. And I just did a quick search and didn't find any info on it saying it had ESPN Presentation integrated into it.

not to be nitpicky, but ABC is not part of ESPN. They're both owned by Disney so there's some crossover. I'm liking the ESPN score bug as well.

Yea...every copy had featuring ESPN, with minor touches in game. So all i'm saying is that i'll believe it when i get something solid. By that i mean when i hear audio or see pre-game warm ups, etc....Just me, although i do have my hopes up.

keep in mind that score bug is only used for bowl games, so there has to be the regular ESPN one that they normally use.
