Madden NFL 15 Screenshot - Colin Kaepernick with Tattoos

Look, I get the whole lets wait till we see how it plays. But this is a thread for the screenshot and graphics. Lets keep the subject on that and not get off on a gameplay tangent.

Like has already been stated repeatedly ITT, very nice looking still shot, even better than what the stills usually look like this time of year. I won't rant about legacy motion or gameplay concerns because these are just stills.

What I will point out is the obvious tats and even though they too look great, I'm interested to find about how this all came about. For years around OS there has been this accepted claim, if I remember correctly expressed from some Madden dev or another, that the NFL didn't allow tattoos in Madden, I for one want to know what changed. I even went back to read that recent article about things the NFL won't allow in Madden and tattoos isn't in that write up. Meaning is this in fact some newly lifted restriction or was EA able to do this for some time but didn't.

FYI, it matters to me because I like to know the facts whenever possible.

Just as far as aesthetics, look at the detail in how the shoulder flap of the shoulder pad is visible through the jersey. The flap jacket looks more detailed than usual as well. However, if this is the equipment as far as gloves and cleats, they are still way behind. Imagine if 2k still had the same basketball shoes as they did in 2k10. This is practically what Madden is puling off if they don't update these cleats and gloves. Gotta get the detail like that if they absolutely want to nail player authenticity.

Oh yea, it looks like they fixed the jersey sleeves too. Hopefully no more bulky sleeves are in this game. And again I'm just talking about aesthetics.

Oh damn! I personally hate Madden and consider it one of the worst next gen games but I gotta say, that looks amazing!

Well I know the NBA doesn't like booing but NBA Live still included it.

Not really a football fan but this looks really great. Didn't really amaze me at first until I saw the comparison to last year. Hopefully this is actually in-game.

It looks to me like a full body scan. Which is something I was cautiously optimistic about when I saw the transformation video. Outside of not being able to tell what the hell the lineman are doing the screen looks awesome and on par with other next Gen graphics. Since tats are back at least that means EA won't be hyping up grass lol.

Not saying this screen isn't legit but early screen shots seem to always look amazing. Hope this is what the game legitimately looks like.
