Yeah, dude obviously has no clue about football. He was taking the MLB all over the place when his assignment (on many plays) was a short zone in the middle of the field.

is it just me or does the game speed still look too fast? intros were done very good as well. i guess i am just not a gus johnson fan...hes a good commentator and all for something like NBA jam, but for me his voice doesn't say gridiron. like others pointed out the guy usering the LB seemed to recover pretty quickly from those erratic moves in the backfield...maybe its just the game speed but i wouldn't think one should be able to shift directions side to side so quickly...was hoping this got toned down a bit from m11.

After watching the video again I did notice that the lighting was way to dark, a small aspect to a great looking game but something that caught my eye.

i used to hate seeing ea sports plastered on the presentation. but this new look is pretty awesome. looks good enough to think that ea sports have their own sports channel. when they said tv style presentation, they weren't lying. i love it all.

and for all you hand towel nerds, they have letters and stuff on them now. how cool is that?

just to add -- i think it's funny that ea showcased a user that tries to rocket catch and use overall cheese yet still went three and out. maybe they were trying to make a point?

Gus isn't the problem, it's the engine itself. Hopefully with the new commentary engine next year they get it right. Here's how Gus really sounds in real life.

I see they still have the GA Dome exterior colors wrong

Commentary sounds MUCH better than the E3 builds we've seen and Madden 11. Chris and Gus sound more natural. I think this is the first unedited user vs CPU video we've seen.

nah, gus just doesn't do it for me i guess. i still think hes a great commentator but i need an al michaels. just personal preference i guess, great vid btw ended up watching the whole thing then compared it to madden...really thing they need to slow it down some, specially in regards to that intial burst acceleration.
