OS at E3: Madden NFL 12 Preview

[savoie2006]

" the game will cut from random TV angles to playable angles without any compelling TV-like transitions"


Did you ever think that maybe part of that is the person playing the game skipping through the sequences, thus it doesn't look as fluid?

getting our hopes up again for the 12th season.

the camera angles really create a sense of immersion. Graphics and presentation really make the look great. Question about pre-snap is there anyway where they can prevent the DB's from strafing into position ?

[tril]

only question I have is about the Commentary, play by play announcers etc. Did they improve on this or is it still stale and dated.

Someone working at Gamestop told me an interesting little jewel. From what I understood if the NFL does not have a season and with the NFLPA now officially disbanded, Madden may not be able to use the players names and likeness., if that happens, then I dont know if I will buy this game this time

not true bud...NFLPA is now a Trade union.....their likenesses can still be used in video games.

EA already confirmed this

Game was already at this point like 7 years ago. Why the need to make excuses? Or, well, they may have finally exceeded what the game was 7 years ago in some ways. The point is, it should not have taken THIS LONG. So I say, don't make excuses. Just say it like it is and move on. Hopefully, this year they will FINALLY be where they should have already been.

Love this! Seems like Madden is a homerun this year!
