Well, I mean, things like better presentation, stadium specific chants, better commentary, etc. don't seem like they made it in in such a short period of time. I guess I'll DVR it and see what gameplay looks like, but I'm not as excited as I was last year.

I'm pretty sure the Madden 10 world premiere video came out around this same time or earlier and look at all the things they added in that game.

They've been working on 11 since before 10 released, so that seems like enough time to get that in to me.

But remember this is just like the trailer we saw last year on spike. So don't expect a whole lot. But hopefully Jimmy Fallon will do another show with Ian this year and give us more footage of madden 11 like he did last year.

let the games begin, tho "the first details" is kinda funny, i thought we got that already...guess this means the 1st back of the box feature??

My guess that you want to avoid seeing people getting banned for going crazy over the clip of madden 11 I guess. People trying to breaking down the video and start complaining about it. Just making a guess!!

If I remember correctly, Ian said that he and his crew get a vacation period about a month before the release of Madden (July) and start to work on the next one around the release of the current year's version, which obviously has to be completed sometime around July of the following year. Subtract a month of brainstorming and round-table discussions and you have about 8 months of development time (Sept-April.) I'm not seeing how that's merely a roster update.

I'm sure Madden 11 is much further along than we are (information wise.) Otherwise the game won't be complete anywhere near July.
