What happened to signature throwing styles? Has EA ever watched american football? Can we get U S A developers who care about sports, not just foreign computer geeks?

And I didn't really get your subtle racism against "Foreign computer geeks"

When in fact, I don't think any foreign guys work on this game. (Could be wrong, someone who knows can certainly correct me)

So maybe the USA guys can just learn to make a better product ya know, instead of being labeled as foreign geeks..

The Monday night football sims are. They just won't admit it. My point is 2K hasn't shown much. I think its going to be great but, they are mostly showing closeup, slow mo trailers just like the other sports games. Other next gen games have shown 20 or 30 minutes of actually game play.

THE COWBOY Did it almost 2 years ago...and we haven't had it in the game.



but we should be careful what we ask for.... they might spam that animation in our faces..like the David Tyree SuperBowl catch.

I find a way (which has become exponentially more difficult) EVERY year to beat the most "sim" experience on and off field out of EA's Pro Football title and enjoy (and play it to death) it EVERY year...

That being said:

The PS2 years are RELATIVELY the "Golden Years" simply because MORE THINGS STILL WORKED!!!

Basic stuff like Formation Subs / Auto Subs / Coach Philosophy Sliders / Accurate Sim Engine (and other assorted aspects of customization inside and outside Franchise / CCM) have ALL fallen by the wayside, presumably to waste the potential of a bigger, more powerful console on graphics and enticing the casual / head to head / online player...

I'd consider M25 to be the "GOAT" of the PS3 era, IF things that worked perfectly in earlier iterations still were in the game and still worked...

We still seem to "lose" more working features EVERY release cycle, which is frustrating / sad...

So, yeah unfortunately, the mid series PS2 games were the Golden Years, because all the above features were in the game AND actually worked "as advertised"...

They still showed 5V5 gameplay from the broadcast view that people play on. Madden hasn't shown any offense Vs. defense from the view guys play the game on.

Other next gen games that are not sports games have showed 20 to 30 minutes. The only point i'm trying to make is, 2K has show actual gameplay, from the view that we all play the game on. Even if it was only 2 minutes, it's 2 minutes more than what Madden has showed
