Aren't we juding what we see NOW though? Maybe I should just speak for myself, but if I were to voice my opinion of the commentary in the vid, it would be just that, my opinion on the commentary in THIS vid.

Now, I do understand folks feeling like this is what we're going to get because little ever changes from even the earliest vids (not counting rosters, blatant glitches, etc). But we're still talking about what we're seeing now. Isn't that why the vid is posted? Aren't we supposed to be discussing what we like & don't like?

What I heard during the gameplay just doesn't sound good enough. It is boring, scripted and lacks the emotion of a real time broadcast.

There has been many a time when they have release a video that makes you shake your head due to how poor it was. Perhaps June 4th has something to do with it, but they seem to think this is really good. Otherwise, it makes no sense to release it.

If names are not said during the announcing of gameplay, that will be awful.

Exactly, I can only assume that during the early stages of development marketing provides the team with dates info will be released, etc. These blogs and video footage could have been prepared months ago, because the blog content doesn't appear to be rushed or thrown together. This leads me to believe alot of this stuff was prepared long before now.

Plus, I don't think this content was to showcase the final version of the game. It was to show us how the game will sound from the booth and on the field. With more info coming out June 4th, I'm sure there is a limit on what they can show. Regardless, everyone is not going to be happy with the game, and people will complain about something. Me personally, I enjoy Madden and look forward to this years version. If the commentary does not work well, I'll just turn it off.

True, but deeming an entire component as a failure after hearing less than 1% of what it has to offer is a little premature, no?

I completely agree that E3 normally follows that trend, with that build being pretty much what we can expect but not this early. Shopmaster tweeted something about there being like 15 builds of the game so, personally, E3 will be more of point of no return, imo.

That said, when I went back and looked at the video, there is indeed a lot "he" references and seemingly no player names. It made me think back to the commentary thread Chase started. http://www.operationsports.com/forum...post2043136672



The commentary in the video was an improvement, imo, and I think in franchise mode, the storylines will seem more specific. I think people judging the overall effect of the commentary on early builds of Play Now games, is premature. To each their own though.

I just don't get this, it's a total franchise killer as it detracts from the individual players themselves and the franchise's storyline. MLB the Show can do it, NBA2k can do it, so why is it so hard for EA to record all of the names in the game. I noticed on the V-Jax TD and on the Int there was no commentary on either player that made a big play. Using "He" is a cop out in 2012. In the NFL they would have mentioned every player that made a play by name and usually coupled that with some information regarding that player.

It's easy to say yes EA is headed in the right direction, and to some extent I can concede that. But overall from what I've witnessed so far EA is still playing catchup and will be for awhile. Hopefully June 4th has the "updated" commentary...

Just got this tweet from Matt Bialosuknia M13 audio director this morning

@mbialosuknia Pregame commentary was great, but crowd and play by play audio was just like Madden 12 to me

Matt Bialosuknia ‏ @mbialosuknia
@jpdavis1982 Not sure when that OS/Pasta Padre mix was captured but it's way out of date. Stay tuned for updates.
