Looked like every other EA trailer that hyped more than it delivered. 5 years ago, this might have peaked my interest.

I see how this new control over jukes has already gone wrong. Did I see someone do a spin, then IMMEDIATELY spin in the other direction? I hope that's not their idea of more control.

I noticed that to. I hope maybe there is another way to make it open to all to download.

The jumpy jukes look weird, but it doesn't really kill me, at the moment.

This game has jumped on my radar, but I need read the general feelings about a month or 2 after release. I cross my fingers for no gamebreaking bugs. Peace.

The player models do look a lot better. And I also think the uniform artwork and lighting really has been improved a lot as well. And these are by far the best proportions for linemen I have seen in an EA football game.

I am very pleased to see that in the Tennesse/LSU game when the Tenn player tried to look at his play art the routes were all jumbled and you really couldn't make it out that was pretty nice to see. While I am still aproaching this game with guarded optimisim I would be lying if I said the trailer didn't make the game look promising.

Is it me or does something about the visuals seem similar to last-gen? Maybe the color palette is less vibrant?

I even noticed that the colored gloves are gone and that they included Michigans new look. They switched over from Nike to Adidas last summer but doesn't go into effect until the fall.

man, the online dynasty has me lickin' my chops. looks like you can have any # of human teams (looks like 4 in the video).

roster sharing w/ friends only shouldn't be a problem. I'm sure us OSers will have it all figured out.

That's one big Coke Zero ad.

no i see it too, the auburn player dropping the ball and the bulldog DB intercepting the pass, those were last gen animations too. but it still looks good

Little things I noticed in video...

I see they have Marshall's new award stickers in the game.
I see they have the correct Michigan State award stickers in the game.
I believe I saw a Nike Clear visor.
Got rid of those orange socks for VT that they wore like once or twice a couple years ago.
Actually the thing I am most excited about is being able to play specific music at specific times. Lots of people will be going out and buying "Band CD's" of their school to get all the songs played.
Imagine TBDBITL for Ohio State busting out Hang on Sloopy. Or VT coming out to Enter Sandman by Metallica.
Air Force and Illinois seemed to be updated with correct helmets and unis.

Love the trailer

hate the absence of ESPN
 
# 34 spankdatazz22 @ 04/16/08 06:07 PM
They did a really good job w/the player proportions and models in general. The question as it always is, is how does the game look when you're actually playing it - EA's never had a problem with hype trailers, they excel at making them. Seems like there's going to be a lot of defensive players sliding out of position to accomodate the new moves system. There were some nice pre/post play animations; some look weird (LBs crossing their legs looking at their feet for example). Question is how the players interact overall (OL/DL interaction, DB/WR interaction, how the players interact w/each other, tackling, etc.). Still seems like it's a lot of 1-on-1 stuff, just more of it
 
# 35 Kevin26385 @ 04/16/08 06:10 PM
Look at the bobbled catch by the Miami Player...The Cornerback gives up right when the animation starts...Yet he still has 30 yards to go to score.

Thats a bummer

It looks like they've done away with the football-face that details the recruits emotions on the recruiting screen. I wonder if that means players will no longer hang-up on you if your pitch doesn't interest them; I'd welcome that change.
 
# 37 worldwearyeyes @ 04/16/08 06:13 PM
FINALLY, we Auburn fans will be able to have our fight song in the game via Custom Sounds, at least for home games. boo ya.
 
# 38 BSherrod @ 04/16/08 06:15 PM
I am very, very, very excited for this game now. Online dynasty looks to have all the depth of a regular dynasty, plus the fun of human interaction. Game looks great, but the jukes could be a hair overpowered. I really like the custom songs and how much detail is put into it. I love details, so when they give me the option to put in specific chants for specific situations I am guaranteed to hi up fightmusic.com and put in my team, my rivals, and the teams I always like to play with.

Is that the actual Cotton Bowl in the OU/Texas sequence? I think it was a generic stadium on NG the past few years.
 
# 40 jdr4693 @ 04/16/08 06:25 PM
why are they able to add all this stuff (mascot games, ect) but they can't add refs on the field during game play. They only show in cut scenes. I want them on the field while im playing.
