That is pretty funny how they bash Madden 10 lineman logic.

It's funny until you realise that they all sold it to us as being "the best madden ever" and we all paid 60 bucks for it..

What are they supposed to market? I don't follow the marketing of other sports games in the same way that I do Madden, but I'm sure the NBA 2K's, NHL's, and MLB The Show's tout their fixes as features as well. NBA Elite is now touting the way players interact and move -- is that not worthy of being called a feature neither?

Have to agree with you here. I am one of Madden's harshest critics (not without provocation in my opinion), but I think that people's anger at whether something that should be in the game already, being touted as a feature is misplaced anger and is really irrelevant.

These are things that should have long since been in the game, but the very fact that they haven't been in for so long makes their inclusion (finally, I would agree) all the more noteworthy, doesn't it?

I think that we should be less concerned with what the marketing team (which includes the devs too) label as a "feature", and much, much more concerned with whether said "feature" actually works. If it works, I could care less what they call it, and vice versa, if it doesn't, I could give a rat's *** what they call it in that case either.

Animations look off, Chris Johnson looks like he's running in mud.

LOL.

Is it just me, or does the running and the juking and whatever look really odd between 0:51 and 0:59

They keep talking about having a guy that the defensive player is supposed to block. What happens if someone moves players around, or manually controls a player. Is the blocker going to ignore the player right in front of them, and try to block the 'guy' they are supposed to block according to the play art? That's not a fix, that's just another bug. Can some of the CD guys respond, or anyone that's seen/read more on the subject?
