There is a lot of strange stuff in this video actually, I look forward to some of the more honest analysis of the OL/DL stuff and other player interactions.

Mestevo, watch closely. Number 74 is shot in the back after making the block. Its hard to see, but its definitely visible...

Nah, he finally moves one of his arms right after he belly flops to the ground, at the same time that number 82 on the right side of the screen pivots all the way around to the left to block a defender instead of escorting runner down the field...

This, I believe is right. Watch closely.

Wow, that is unbelievable.

Wow. Backbreaker is looking sweet! I can not wait to get my hands on this game.

I completely agree. At the same time this looks like the best football game ever at this point. Yes it will be a little shallow, but it is a deeper game than APF. I turned injuries off in season mode anyway b/c the backups were horrid at QB and WR in APF2k8.

Let's go! Realistic football. Woo!

Interesting to see that Madden is dropping the Right Trigger, just as BackBreaker is adding it. I think BackBreaker's separation of Agility + Power is better than Madden's Speed increase approach. Definitely looking forward to the game.

You're making an interesting point, and I could be wrong on this, but the defender that 82 blocks is on the same yard line as the ball carrier. Question 1: How far do you think that defender is away from the ball carrier? Did the defender have a legitimate chance at getting to the ball carrier justifying the block, rather then the escort?
I don't think that defender was more than 5 yards from the ball carrier. At the time of the block by #74 , #82 was within a body length of the ball carrier. After #74 disposes of one defender #82 turns around, takes maybe two steps and then blocks the defender. He might have been 15 feet away.

This game looks great JayBee. All the videos I have seen, something just looks off by the movement of the QB, I just can't put my finger on it. This might end up being a day 1 purchase, but I will wait and see what everyone here says impressions wise.

LOL dude your screen name is awesome. That quote still cracks me up every time I play APF.

"He looks like an over-caffeinated origami artist!"

I think I may pass on Madden this year. After seeing how great this game looks in motion, and how nice the controls look, I honestly don't think I'll want to go back to the old way Madden plays. Of course I'll know more come June 1st, I'm definitely taking the day off to spend it with Backbreaker.

He's at least 5 yards away (further away than the previous yard line) and they're on the 15, nobody has the angle to catch him anyways.

If 74 tripped on the guy he blocked, I wonder if right after this clip the RB fell over 74 after his foot clipped through his leg.

The Agility / Power running styles reminds of 2K5 and how they made finesse and power backs play like themselves. The game looks better and better with each video. Can hardly wait.

Yeah they're making a bigger deal out of this lineman thing than it needs to be.

# 58 JkA3 @ 05/08/10 12:19 PM

Hey I think that looks pretty good. I really want to check the demo out for this bad boy.

# 59 kjcheezhead @ 05/08/10 12:22 PM

I def not complaining. When have you ever seen a lineman's foot get stepped on in a video game and it trips him?

# 60 mestevo @ 05/08/10 12:28 PM

You guys are awesome, it's amazing when a lineman can have his foot stepped on by what looks like a 250lb safety and fall down, but then it's suddenly 'nothing to see here, making a big deal of nothing' when the running back's foot clips through almost his entire lower leg, from foot to knee. I guess it's not quite all 'physics based action' and if it is, then there are some collision problems.
