For goodness sake ! They wanted it to be like that. For all we know it had nothing to do with the difficulty level and they jacked up Hillis's ratings to showcase him, lowered the defenders ratings, or both. This video indicates nothing except that the animations, the running animations, are smoother.

hahah, that better be on rookie because as much as I don't root for them one thing I know for sure year in and year out it is going to be tough to run on the Steelers.

Why do people still not understand its a highlight video entitles "Peyton Hillis Goes Beast Mode"? They aren't going to show him getting 3 yard gains up the middle. Its like the draft right now. When they were showing Cam Newton videos they were all of him breaking tackles and scoring TDs with his feet and arm. That doesn't mean he scores every single play in real life. It'd be pretty silly to show your average play when trying to hype up a player.

He runs over Troy Polamalu multiple times in this video like he was a college D-2 player. This video reminds me of NFL2k4 where the HBs broke 18 tackles a game or more. Edit: Before I get called out, I understand it is a "beast mode" trailer. But we have seen this find its way into Madden 10, I did not get 11 so i can't comment on this. But HBs spinning out of 4 man tackles and such happened to often. Hope it is balanced by release is all I am saying.

I had the same concerns but hope everyone is right and it was rookie etc.

Love the video and all of the changes the madden team have made so far. Only crit I can give after watching this vid and the gameplay vid is that I don't like how straight up the ballcarriers and defenders both run into each other. I feel like there should be more anticipation for each impact and lowering of the shoulder to prep for the truck or tackle. Right now it looks good but I think adding that anticipation for the hit would make the tackle interactions look even better.
