You do. There is no "get skinny" or hands on the back of Linemen. It isn't AS bad as it used to be, but it is no where near the 2K level.

But it's way better than the 'Mario running' in years past.

That was my point. He was asking if it had what 2K has, and I said no, which is accurate. Is it better? Yes. I don't think it is as good as you think, but that's just difference of opinion maybe.

And yes, unfortunately, I do still have the game.

Gotcha.

I'll have to try it and really look next time I play.

It is in Madden 11. I play Madden 11 about 3-4 times a week and I see it throughout the game.

Does APF2K8 have it at all? I haven't played that in quite some time, but I don't recall APF having the collision animations btwn teammates that 2K5 had.

I'll have to go home and play with this. I play this game all the time, and I don't feel myself getting stuck hardly at all.

In fact, I thought that was part of the ball-carrier animations they implemented last year. I know that the CPU will bowl over to get through a hole (although they don't pull up fast enough).

i am seeing models looking shorter and fatter, AR and vick looked fat but hey its early.

so far not seeing anything mind blowing, the tackle stuff is all thats looks new and have substance.....

That Revis swat animation highlights why I hate that momentum still isn't being respected in pass coverage. Revis went from shuffling left to right, to making a vaulting swat as if he were sprinting.
