Madden 2010 News Post

Look at Maximum tackle and the suddenness in which the tackler arrives and the wealth of options in this system. The tackler comes to tackle not engage in a line dance. I know I don't know all the features to Pro Tak, when it comes to the actual tackle, but when you see this video, of ESPN NFL 2K5 tackle options you will understand why I critisize the grabbing for grabbing sake.

In 2k5 you could initiate the tackle with a wrap or a hit. I also like which wasn't mentioned in the video, you can choose whether or not you should wrap high or low by flicking the right stick up for high wrap tackle and flicking down for low wrap tackle and the next defender(s) attacks the ball carrier.

I'm not hating, I actually like the idea, I just want it to be aggressive and violent as it should be its a collision sport not contact and racing up to a ball carrier just to hold onto him just for looks, just doesn't look good.

The last one Stephan Jackson busts through two defenders (they fly off) which was kinda iffy, but the followup anim where he muscles into the endzone was what I would expect.
Yeah I liked it. Not a big fan of the arm swipes and then instantly busting another defender, hopefully we won't be seeing to much of that in the game or at all.

Off topic The Wire is the best show on HBO. Period.

Edit: Best on TV too.

Ian, when will we see some Packers players. Killing me over here.

All these videos and I've still got nothing.

Love the Bears all white uniforms..

A little concerned about Nick Roach being right behind Jacobs and not tackling him!

Haha, I thought I was the only one dying for some green and gold! Give us some Pack action!

I'll echo everyone else's sentiments. Best video yet.

I really liked some of the running animations, particularly Jacobs when the camera followed him from the side. It looked really good. And the tackling looks great as well. I believe I saw a quick little juke in there from an Eagles player at the start of the video as well.

Awesome video. It got me more excited than anything else so far this offseason.

That looked REAL.
I thought that too. It looks amazing. Like I said, I hope that games with other weather types look that good too.

Only thing I dont like is that Ronnie, Forte, and McGahee were smashing through the D. These huge gang tackles should only be there for Jacobs, Jackson, Lynch, Lewis, and a select few outside along with FBs. Not even the 2 greatest RBs in the NFL, AP and LT, require more than 3 defenders to bring them down.

If you asked me if this was Madden or real life i'd pick real life 100 out of 100 times.

Also, just noticed: FEET CHOPPING!

CHeck out Steven Jackson at about 2:18 when he is wrapped by 3 Cardinals. His feet suddenly starts churning quickly, taking quick little steps to try and keep driving forward.

I like!

Bow Down to Pro-Tak

Man... this game is going to be SICK.

Probably on Rookie/Pro. I'm hoping.

Best Madden video to date, and I only watched half of the video.

Ian has a debug setting that makes Pro-Tak more noticeable for the vids so that's why they look like they are "hugging" so much.

As good as the rest of the game looks, this really stands out IMO, hopefully this will be addressed, it kills the immersion.

Video looked good. Can't wait to see more on this game. Add the low socks and this game is golden visually.
