Madden 09-11 had animation problems...players were jittery, and they also had weird running animations.....and of course ProTak affected on the field gameplay. but you look at Madden 12 and the gameplay reminds me of Madden 08, as far as tackling. I don't think it's a coincidence why some are excited about this year's version, because it is losing all the on the field gimmicks and going back to core gameplay. here is Madden 08...imo, it looks similar to Madden 12 gameplay wise.....compared to what we've had these past couple of years.

Nice long post, but I was just poking fun at Mr. Ortiz....

Am I the only one that finds it funny when people who have never written one line of code pass off their opinion on game engines as some sort of fact. What's even funnier is those opinions aren't even educated guesses.

It's almost as funny as troof chasers trying to give lessons on physics.

But it's nice to see the usual group of Madden trolls show up to the party.

Wasn't the engines rebuilt for this gen?

This community, or the ones that post "the sky is falling" or "im scared about "insert feature here" will never chill out. It's still the "look at me , I found this issue" etc.. generation. It's one thing to try and make a game better but OS is way too tolerant with the general dip****s that just cant live without drama or agendas.

Sorry, but the game isn't even up to where it was last gen yet. Consumers have every right to be dissatisfied. The nobody can criticize anything crowd is just as bad. OS is also way to tolerant with the above.
