Madden NFL 12 Video - Gameplay Sizzle

[BlackJack_Williams]

Yes, I am definitely impressed by this video. I was one of the skeptical, no thank you for Madden gamers but this video have brought some light to my opinions. Still looking forward to actual live game play but this is heading in the right direction.

it was a great block. did you notice the collision detection after the block where he tripped over the defender he blocked and fell to the ground. That looked very nature and not the pinball effect.

Being a huge Madden skeptic that USED to be a fan of the series.....

That was...good...real good lol...The double hit tackles looked really good, blocking as well. They finally seemed to have listened.

Good job EA, can't wait to see what you guys have for the franchise mode blog.

Liked the way that Frank Gore switched the ball to the other hand and that Miami LB laid out Santanio Holmes and sent him back. I hope everyone noticed the ball physics reference, finally no more dead stop punts.

Today was a good day.

I like what I seen.

My only question is when the ball is snapped and you hand it off to a RB and you run into a lineman are you still going to be running up his *** all day?

Or did they finally add animations to prevent that from happening? I hate to bring up 2K but, in 2K they have a animation to prevent you from getting stuck on a lineman and doing the running man dance. They will stick their arm out and push off depending on what side they're on and it looks seamless and fluid.

I have a feeling they didn't add this but, I really hope they did.

You are not, that was specifically mentioned in one of the blogs.

I agree. Some things look good others look bad. EA just needs to capture all new athletic animations. Even then, I don't know if it will translate into the game. I don't know if the tech they have in place is capable of displaying as many animations as this game needs.

graphics remind me of ps2 but in a good way
