I'm quoting just for no other reason just to quote it. 5 years ago.......

This isn't a PC-elitest deal. You miss my point entirely. If all they have to offer is great graphics, I am not impressed. My point about graphics is they can be had quite easlily. Great gameplay cannot. Fifa can actually trot out their wares with tons of interviews (which they are already doing) about various gameplay improvements, because they have great game. Wins award after award. Madden is closer to NBA Live/Elite in my book. They have to prove themselves all over again. So I'm looking with "Missouri eyes" at Madden. I get the marketing angle. But they need to show.

My main games are Fifa and NBA2k. They, long with "The Show" are the best sports games out there. Madden isn't as good as them. And one could make an argument that even PES is better. Madden can't just try to be better than NCAA anymore and call it a day. I might get called the "trailer police" or whatever. But I play, and have played, a ton of sports games in my 47 years. I'm just stating my simple opinion. That trailer did nothing to change my attitude about Madden being a second rate sports game. They have a ton of work to make me want to buy a console again, just to play their game. My point, in a nutshell......

That trailer didn't look good at all; in fact, I'm left horribly underwhelmed, and my expectations couldn't have been any lower before this trailer either. If all they're pushing for is graphics again, then they haven't done nearly enough. The sidelines/back of endzones look empty again, the same "touchdown" animation on the scoreboards, same exact player animations as current gen, etc.

Getting NFL players to speak about their personal football experiences in a Madden trailer doesn't do the trick anymore. EA Sports better step their game up; they know they'd get eaten alive if there were other competition.

All that video did was further instill my low expectations of next gen madden just being a graphic upgrade and NOTHING more for the next 7-10 yrs.

Awesome....

Edit: And not to sound too pessimistic, but I hope 5 years into next gen that we're not hearing a new creative director talk about how too many resources were poured into fluff like grass and unis at the start of gen 4. That trailer reminded me of when Ian Cummings took over years and confirmed to us then that initial priorities weren't where they needed to be. And the game never did get fully back on track...

Also If they're still using cutscenes that is just sad and pathetic.

Wake me in about 5 years. Maybe then they'll have all their issues sorted out, or better yet, maybe another company will be making an NFL game.

I can totally understand why people thought the Espn footage from earlier was horrible, but this looks much better than current gen. I wasn't expecting to be blown away though.

Look fantastic, but should we be worried the game cuts out before any contact animations (Ie: tackling), almost deliberately in every clip. If EA doesn't have enough confidence in their animations/gameplay why should we?
