It's kinda funny in a way... it's like a flashback to 2001 where it was "ask coach" rather than ask madden and it had a different voice telling you what to run.

It definitely shouldn't deserve any type of hype as a major feature...it's what should have been there to start with.

Yup, its madden....Am i just not seeing locomotion or is it like the NCAA DEMO...Where you have to actually play to "FEEL' it?

That vid was just pathetic honestly....Backing up instead of going forward IMHO. "ICE SKATING" has gotten A-lot worse from what i can tell at this point.

This might be the first year I pass on Madden since 2001.

I can't stand watching Reggie Bush bounce off 3 defenders, but you guys do realize this is an intentional design of the game by the devs and not an example of how the "engine" is broken, right?

Ian was on here last year promoting pro-tak and was talking about not wanting a play to be over until the runner was down. He used this video as an example of what he was shooting for...

If people can bash Backbreaker for it's intentional design choice of having only one camera, then surely people can bash Madden for what they view as a bad implementation of their "engine", can they not?

Intentional design or not, it sure as heck doesn't look very realistic does it.

Its not intentional. What's shown here is what Pro-tak is meant to rectify. Maybe pro-tak is not turned on???

Do you seriously think they'd take their game to E3 with what was touted as being a "gamechanging addition" turned off??

face it, more or less, what you see now is what you're gonna' get in August...always is every year, unfortunately.

Why would it not be turned on? It's kind of a major part of the game isn't it? You can't even call it defensive user error since the user was controlling the player holding Bush up while the CPU defenders bounced off. Something ain't right there.
