The Madden NFL 13 presentation team had some lofty goals this year.

World Class presentation was No. 1 on their list. Everything that has been done in the past has been taken to the next level, as the new broadcast team of Jim Nantz and Phil Simms comes to life, making it look and sound as realistic as possible. The new Connected Careers mode (details coming June 4) wouldn’t be complete without them, keeping the presentation realistic.

Presentation overall looks good, the addition of announcer's actually in the booth and the ability to see them throughout the game was nice.

The menu system has been completely overhauled and it looks smooth.
The biggest thing that caught my eye was in the opening menu there was the option to play as Player or Coach, when I asked about it Ryan F. just posted a smiley.

I'm assuming they are at a minimum going to implement some form of coaching carousel which would be awesome or a full blown HC mode. That's speculation but definitely one of the minor menu options I noticed.

I am excited to see how the broadcast comes to life during gameplay. All of the pre-game sounds great as long as they keep it fresh for every game and it doesn't get too repetitive. A little dissapointed about the lack of a true halftime show but if the gameplay is on point, this isn't my most pressing issue. Thanks for the write up.

Sounds great except the missing half time show. #sigh. I look forward to what the final product yields in the presentation department. ;-)

Love the new Lighting an Cleaned Up fields...Makes everything(Art Wise) stand out that much more

We'll have to see more of Nantz an Simms but I had a favorable first impression of them

Graphic overlays looking good, very CBS-ish

Mildly disappointed to hear they still haven't added NCAA's screenshot feature to Madden.
