Madden NFL 11: Video Doc Series - Audio Presentation

[goganious]

If only they would include the Bills' "Shout" song that plays after every Buffalo touchdown. Something tells me they will leave this one out.

Why didn't EA take the extra step with Madden and get television style broadcast from ESPN or even CBS? I mean all you have to do is phone up the EA Tiburon office,

This is the first year that I have seen NCAA Football take the lead on a game improvement basis. Usually they just grab the scraps from last year -- and now this year they realized that in order to truly be seen as great, they needed to do some soul searching and actual progress apart from their big brother.

Madden looks good, but I only buy one game -- and NCAA looks to have the true progress. TV presentation would've made that a different story.

Unless you've seen some videos I haven't, how did you come to this conclusion? All I have seen is some scenes for the start of a game with some ESPN integration. To me, that does not equal TV presentation. Slapping some scene together that says ESPN on it doesn't mean a thing.

Plus, NCAA doesn't have the NFLN to contend with.

i herd it has something to do with the nfl wanting the game to be centered around the nfl network channel so no cbs or e.s.p.n or abc

My bad MJ,I didnt mean the question like that.I really was asking if you were at CD. LOL

I see alot of CD guys posting that same comment about just slapping ESPN on and calling it network broadcast.I was just seeing if you were another one of them,that's all.

I find it strange how the CD guys comment alot but their very tight lip about those EA Sports logos all over everything.

No problem...I misunderstood your post, so my apologies.

I am really HOPING beyond hope that Tiburon starts to "get it" as far as presentation goes, but then I see thinly veiled frustration from people like Watcher (who WAS at cd) saying that the devs just DON'T get it, and I feel less optimism.
