They were very close to getting the midnight green right last year. I was nervous from the screenshots because they looked terrible, however, they looked great in the final game. This goes with my comment earlier about their filters. Most of the colors looked better in the final game than any of the screenshots.

I understand the Eagles color may be tough to match. If you look at my comparison picture, the color examples I have in the middle are the official colors. The "midnight green" shade in the picture is not how it looks on the uniforms. I assume this is due to the material and all. I read an article on the new uniforms that stated Nike had a tough time matching the reebok "midnight green", so they created their own version that should be similar that they are calling "Nike green". I'll give EA a pass for years past because of all that mentioned, and I'm hoping that they continue to tweak the color until we get something that looks exactly like they wear on Sundays (and Mondays, Thursdays and even Tuesdays).

Man I wish they never played that stupid Tuesday game...

Madden player models have too long of arms. Almost look like apes. If they stretched them straight down they could nearly grab their knee caps while standing straight up.

Other then the above, and color issue's, this is one of their better screenshots though.

In all fairness, the kelly greens of the Buddy Ryan era have never been in a current-gen Madden game. The 1960 commemorative alternates from 2010 were the closest we had to it, and those were a correct shade of near-lime green.

Midnight green looked great in Madden NFL 12 IMO, much better than Madden NFL 10 (I don't honestly remember what 11's looked like.)

They really messed up the Eagles helmets this year and not buying it this year because of it. The wings are all messed and don't know how they missed it!!

That was the first thing I noticed too. Not a huge deal for me, but really surprised they let it go like this. Seams like something easy and I personally would have taken the little extra time to get it right.

I was on my way to the game when they cancelled it. The snow was getting pretty bad. The problem was that the snow was unexpected and so the roads did not have salt on them. This was a concern for the city and they thought it was best to move the game instead of having several accidents afterwards. Then Tuesday rolled around, I went to see my Eagles play the Vikings against rookie QB Joe Webb, how could they lose, right? Ugh...

As I said earlier, Madden 12 was very close (due to the new lighting) but still a bit too saturated. Madden 11 was the same as Madden 10... and Madden 09... and Madden 08, etc. I was very happy to see the improvement last year and I hope they continue to improve it until it's perfect. From the pictures I have seen of the Nike uniforms, the color seems lighter than in the past and less reflective so it may be easier for them to match.

I noticed that awhile back. It's disappointing but ultimately not that big of a deal. I think it may be a problem with the Helmet skin going on the various Helmet models. I say that because I've seen helmet issues with a lot of teams. I'm hoping things like this and the warping numbers (just look at the Reggie pick to see what I mean) get fixed for the next gen game next year.
