Yes and he had the best call of the 2009-2010 season.

Gus in Madden = Epic.

GREAT move EA.

I love that NCAA10 was basically a trial run for all other EA sports games and now it's gone. Hilarious.

The possibility of this is just great, but let's get our expectations in order. He was good in the NCAA Basketball game but there wasn't a lot of dynamic commentary and it became repetitive quickly. Worst of all it sounded like he was reading a script and not calling a game.

Getting GJ in the game is just a start. It needs to be implemented properly with A LOT of dynamic commentary like NBA 2k10 The Show, and MLB 2K10. I wish they would just skip the script and record him calling games and go from there.

Good point, but if anything, they can build off of what he did in NCAA, which is very good.

I'm hopeful that it'll be better, because I think the CBS presentation was something that was added late in development for NCAA Basketball. At least that's why I figured the ESPN team had more lines.

I like Gus Johnson doing college basketball better than NFL. But yes, it would be an upgrade over Tom Hammond if its true.
