Hmm can't see the vids yet but how are the ol/dl interaction? Same as past games or do they look like they have more oomph to them?

Defiantly looks smoother in the collision departs. Doesn't look like players are being sucked into each other. Good sizzle video.

I tell ya though, I can't wait for the days where all the animations flow together completely smoothly. There's parts in the vid where a players transition from doing one thing to another and it looks off due to the 'jerkyness'.

The gameplay looks exactly the same as last year. Pretty disappointing...
This. Animations still look off, Madden still look cartoony compare to NCAA

I can say without a doubt this is a big upgrade from Madden11. I'm loving this so far. I'm really enjoying this video. Gameplay looks awsome so far. Can't wait to see more gameplay videos in the weeks and months to come.

From what I saw so far from the video. The oline/dline interaction looked to be improved from Madden11. But that's just my opinion bro. Hope it helps a little.

YAY for ball physics haha! looks pretty good to me, man EA is really getting it done this year, NCAA and Madden both lookin tight.

Looks better than what?

Not Impressed....animations are still SUPER STIFF....same old OL/DL interaction....and for those that said it is 2K like, it is FAR from it. There are some good things in this video, but it is very minimal so far...I'll wait for E3 videos...right now it is not really impressive.

Looks good. I really like the collisions. They "feel" real. I will admit I'm getting excited. I don't post often here but I read alot and I definitely realize this site is full of haters and whiners but I like how things seem to be shaping up. Oh and on a side note... Why have Columbo th RT for the Cowboys... he's done. That's why we drafted Tyron Smith tonnight... lol. Just thought it was wierd.

Not even edge rushing impresses, ya, huh? I thought of all things, that might, but different strokes for different folks.

Edge rushing impresses the hell out of me. As well as WR shading.

The animations need to be fluid and not jerky like they are now. NCAA seems to have nailed this so hopefully it will follow into Madden. I still don't see the procedural awareness. The "eyes in the back of the head" over shoulder catch still looks bad and the DBs are not looking for the ball while maintaining proximity with the receiver. Still, it's hard to tell completely from the vids. Nothing I've seen is mind blowing at all. It looks... good to ok. I still didn't see as many consecutive hit tackles, but there were some, and they look MUCH better than the hot garbage that was pro-tak.
Taz, the vids don't get me hyped that much. Believe it or not, it's all the blogs and info that floats around.

I'm sorry, but last year we had improved run blocking and game flow and strategy pad to look forward to.

After today, from what I've read, consecutive impact tackling, no more suction or warping, better zone coverages, wr shading, better ball physics, custom playbooks and better edge rushing.

I didn't even go into presentation.

You'll need to excuse me if I feel more excited about this years iteration vs. last years. There are reasons to feel skeptical, but there are sure darn good reasons to feel better than last year, don't you agree?

How does NCAA look better? It has the same bad animations. I don't get why people say NCAA looks so much better than Madden.

I gotta agree. Like GI Joe figures being animated.

I might not have complained so much had the game actually looked like this since 09. I would have never felt the need to join any of the forums to voice my opinions; which were categorized as "nit picking". I'll reserve any excitement till I get to see for myself.
