You think the E3 build was "at least" weeks old? I don't have anything to prove you otherwise, but I would bet the build was more recent than that. E3 is where they showcase the game to the media, videos pour over the internet, and people give their hands-on impressions of the game. Seems like EA would have brought the most recent, most polished version they possibly could. I'm sure it's a week or two old, but I would seriously doubt it would be any older than 2 weeks. I could be wrong though.

In any case, you're talking about fixing glitches in cutscenes. I'm talking about player AI, collision systems, and animations. Those are things that I would think would be way more difficult to change with the amount of time left.

Again though, I don't want to give too much attention to this video because of the varsity setting. There are a lot of things that concern me in the video, but I'm not going to form any long-lasting opinions from it. Honestly, I'm trying to avoid forming any opinions about this game until I at least get to play the demo. Half of the gameplay is how it feels. Obviously, we won't know how it feels until we get to play it.

Technically, the guy who rides Traveler the horse and the guy who has the sword at midfield are different. You don't see both on the field at the same time. The guy with the sword should have the band behind him, actually. I don't think Traveler ever runs on the field.

he does but never at mid field. And you are correct on the other accounts. I don't expect EA to do all that but at least don't have Traveler rise up with Tommy on him then not even have a cut scene between him just standing there

I don't think I meant to quote you. I don't know. I was referring to the Trojan horse thing. Not AI issues.

I did say weeks, That could mean 2 or 3, I just know it was't a build from days before the event. They have to do extensive testing to make sure its presentable.

One concern I have: Ben said that if you are the coordinator, then you only control your side of the ball, and then he said the other side will just sim until it's your turn to run your side again.

What this tells me is if I am an OC, then when the defense is on the field I won't see any of it??? I want to be able to see the defense play the game and actually use that time as well to think about how the D is playing against me, review from my notes what is working, etc... Tell me they won't sim everything if you are an OC or DC... please tell me they will give us the option of having the game play out for us to watch.

it's been said over and over that if you choose to be a coordinator you have the option to either sim or watch from the broadcast cam angle when your side is off the field

Thanks. Some of us don't have the time to read through every thread and every post. I appreciate the quick response!

Wow, I'm pretty impressed. The collision looks great. Yeah there are some older snippets of the 10 there, but definitely think it's worth a buy.

Now to find yet another PS3 (sold my last 2 )
