Madden NFL 12 Videos - Virtual Playbook Gameplay and Presentation

At the end of the first video, around the 9:10 mark, is that a Lions player running in between all those Bears players? Lol I can't tell who or what that is. Other than that, cool vids.

Good question. That is where they would be the most useful.

Overall, I'm not jumping for joy with these videos. I'm glad they're making improvements, and I know that they've REDUCED suction, but the suction is still there. Maybe when I play it I won't even notice any suction at all, won't know til I play it. I did like the ball physics though, the way it hit the ground and rolled was excellent. Anyone notice Clay's hair seemed to be detached from his body and going through the ball carrier when he had him down?

I have to be honest and critque the videos but the suction is still there, the footwork is way too fast. Michael Vick doesn't drop back in the pocket that fast...my god his feet were moving wayyyy too fast.

Not impressed with the gameplay videos. Sorry, but am not.

Me either really, only thing i truly liked was tht hit stick tackle by Clay Matthews

I think ppl are just so ready for a solid NFL game they overlook the flaws. Although i gotta admit tht Marshall Faulk spin reminded me of the PS2 days for some reason, thts a good thing

Im so happy they got with the guys who do the real thing on Sundays with the Broadcasts......

This is what sells EA...People want to see what they see on the tube when they watch the big game

The jury is still out as far as gameplay is concerned...

Some people are able to overlook certain flaws. Sure I want less sliding, I want no suction too. The suction imo was hardly even noticeable. It was also in slow motion. At regular speed it might not even be noticeable at all.

I am sure EA is hearing our concerns about the DB shuffle/sliding. I would imagine they will try to fix it if they can. Not saying they will though.

You have to admit the tackling is much better this year. When they showed the tackle from last year compared to this year it was night and day.

As long as linebackers aren't sliding 5 feet in front of an open hole to make a play on my RB I'm gonna be happy. That was one of the most frustrating things for me last year. Well that and total lack of defense.

And whoever was upset because he didn't see the LBs knocking the ball lose after a catch, well you don't have to worry anymore about that.

Overall its looking pretty good. Already seems to be a step up from 11.

I think they are. If you recall from the earlier videos that showed the same Revis play the warping and sliding was horrible. I found it odd that in this newer video they cut off the playback right before the warping really kicked in.

This tells me that they are aware of just how bad it was. So maybe they will try to remedy the problem in time for release.

One can hope
