TIME FOR NEW COMMENTARY

[Rules]

I don't know how you guys feel about this but I honestly have to say that I cannot go another year hearing the same lines over and over that we have heard for the past 7 years+.

The commentary structure for EA's games are horrible. Just a bunch of random lines being spewed. They can get different guys to come in, or even give the same guys more lines, but it's still going to be horrible if they don't change the structure of how their commentary works. Like the old 2k football game or maybe something new. The commentary just has no flow at all to it. Maybe try getting all of the guys in the studio at the same time or something. There never seems to be any real conversation like you would hear on TV, just random 1 liners. This is something that hasn't changed from them since the PS1 days.

yes indeed. need something to keep it fresh every 3 or 4 games.
This is where adding gameday could have helped

This is one area EA is far behind. 2k sports especially with their basketball series is unbeatable.

Echoing that it's an implementation issue on EA's part as to why their commentary lags behind the rest of the industry. I honestly like the duo of Nessler and Herbstreit, and I don't think there's a better alternative personnel-wise.

If anyone brings up Brent Musberger aka "Mush-Mouth", I am ignore-listing that person.

I'm very happy with Nessler and Herbstreit but it is time for all BRAND NEW commentary. I agree..........put them in the booth together and wipe out all of the old commentary completely. It is sad when we can finish their lines better than they can.

I'm already concerned as it is not listed as something they are working on as this has been my biggest disappointment with their presentation. Fix this before worrying about dreadlocks.

It's been a nice run w/ Nessler and Herbie, but it's time for fresh voices. I'm longing for the day w/ a dual broadcast team ala NCAABB 10.

I'm not exactly a Musberger fan, but you'd have to admit, seeing that aerial shot of the stadium with Busberger's signature opening, "You are looking live ..." and the music playing in the background, that'd be pretty awesome.

Especially if you put it with this music (start at around the :35 mark). That gets me pumped for football every time.
