Why is x box 1 the featured console in the trailer?

I would imagine the agreement between the NFL and Microsoft making the XBOX One "the official video game console of the NFL" has something to do with it.

This is pretty typical for their cycle at this point in time, first showing player models, with the rest being pretty much all beta. It doesn't even look like they've inserted new crowds and such yet, albeit the pics are shown on new Super Bowl field presentation. Steeler's wideout's helmet logo still cocked forward on the helmet, like it is now, similar to the Cowboys star and a few other logos, and I too will be disappointed with no mouthpieces. I'm also GUESSING db stuff will mean that receivers/backs fall down/get thrown down, etc, and there will be more check downs on who you throw to, and that's a good thing. If you're complaing about Hall's position on Beckam play, noted, but look at Carr's position in real life when Beckham made that catch in real life. Also looking forward to Rex's team video breakdown of the improvements coming. After the leap 15 made I'm still optimistic, and will remain so as I have in all these years. It's good to see the board buzzing again. At least we don't have ps3 gen 2006 type stuff to worry about. Wash, rinse, repeat.

The ball morphing mid air to OBJ hand concern's me..

Thanks for all the feedback guys! The WR/DB theme is just one of several major gameplay upgrades this year. We will be announcing more in the weeks leading up to E3. There is A LOT more to come.

Not worried so much about halls position as we are his interception attempt. He's trying to intercept a pass that isn't even there. He should be reaching over his left shoulder trying to contest the catch. It's fine to get beat and be out of position but the AI should know that and have animations in place to act accordingly

Hope so. Really hope there is improvements in equipment and presentation as well. Don't know how nike hasn't hassled you guys yet about the ridiculously outdated equipment..

Some dude was on this forum saying "just wait guys, i know someone from ea and they said madden 15 will wow us, its the game we've all been waiting for", then disappointment (imo) shipped out last august. Its always been like this for madden, "I hope this, I hope that", i'm over it with this development team, it's obvious they don't value the sim as much as the arcade. That's their prerogative how they run their business but if your waiting for them to change you might as well get comfortable Just going to leave this in here... How come fifa and ea ufc came close to this trailer, but live and madden are laughably nowhere even close?

Fifa and UFC are pretty legit. Once UFC puts in missing features I am very confident it will be a great game like Fifa.
