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.

Great comparison shots!!!


And really nice work so far Ian n' Co!!!!!

Madden 09


Madden 10

I was just about to tell people to pause the video at the 1:05 mark to see that, but you captured it.

This game looks so damn real! I'm sold!

They better have a collector's edition too, because I want another one just like Madden NFL 09's!

Let me know if there will be a Collector's Edition Ian! or Phil! And I'll go pre-order in full tomorrow!

Love this shot. This by far is the best screen shot of any of the screens I have seen already. The Jacksonville screens were pretty good but, this one takes the cake. OS should get this in HD or even just add this screen to the others. Its the best.

Just a tip: Don't pre order it in full .

Present value of a dollar and all that. Plus Ian and Co. don't get another dime from an early pre order anyway...it's all Gamestop.

I'm putting a preorder down but not till closer to release and I'll only put 5 down. Might as well let my money sit in the bank for as long as it can.

Yeah I've had it pre-ordered for a long time now. No since in buying it now, when you can just buy it when it comes out.

Question for a dev if you can answer this, what happens to the other players while there are 9 guys pushing the pile? What will they be doing since they will not be able to get into the pile?

Has this been discussed???

Well if its anything like real life..the player should either be down or the play should at least be already blown dead before the 10th man reaches..
 
# 250 PGaither84 @ 05/12/09 03:58 AM
I think Ian just did a face scan of himself for the Romo model

It just seems flawed after 9 players are pushing the pile. What happens when another player wants to jump in but can't?

Well well, looking surprisingly good EA. I must say, I am very impressed at the quality of lighting/shading of M10. It really has taken a big step forward. That broncos screen really has that HDR effect to it. And the animations and tackles are shaping up nicely. Really hoping you guys come through this year.

Anyone else notice they got the visor clips in now?

Yeah thats what I was thinking. Your probably right. The pile will probably be blown dead or the pile will fall before the 10th man is reaches.

One thing that Ian can learn from Romo is don't choke when it comes to crunch time!!! So far he's been doing great but there are still a couple months left!!!

If you asked that question 2 years ago . No madden has looked like 09/10. All next gen games were more cartoony and over the top. Also, like the CD people said, they could hardly believe that the above picture was even possible in Madden, at least not for M10. I could be sold that someone used photoshop or something if I had not sceen pro-tak.

Since the video I think was on Rookie probably, on the higher difficulties, the pile would probably go down before 9 guys got involved. Full 9-man piles would probably be really rare. At least, that's what I would assume would happen. Like Ian said in the video, the refs would blow the whistle to stop the play if the ballcarrier wasn't going down.

Good point about wondering what happens if more than 9 people rush to the pile though. I'm curious to know what would happen in that situation too.

Yeah cause I'm like I know its rare but, if the pile can still move forward after 9 players have hit the pile then they gotta fall almost immediately so that other players wouldn't get involved (which they can't).


So i'm hoping rckinAPhilliezhat is right.

Is anyone else upset by the screen shot of the Broncos gang tackling McGahee? I though Ian wanted sim game play. When was the last time we saw the Broncos D swarm around a player and make a stop in the running game? []

Its probably on rookie/pro so its probably a bit easy to get big gang tackles to happen and have them happen less often in all pro or all madden. Thats what I'm hoping for.
