I am going to say it is a Madden pic...look at the stadium reflection on the helmet. If it were a real picture they would most likely do it in a studio.

This just looks like a Pre-Rendered image, not in-game, not real life.

Aww, NO WAY!! I'm at my mom's house and I literally had to run upstairs to see this pic on an monitor and speak on this using a real keyboard and not my EVO - IF THAT IS FROM IN-GAME, WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO....

Ahem. Steve, can we get confirmation on this? It would be easy to "assume" from the "Check out the hi-res Madden NFL 12 portrait of Peyton Hillis. Brought to you by Michael Young, Madden NFL Art Director.", which SHOULD say it all, but that shot is too damn good to be true IF it is actually in-game from Madden 12!!

Yeah, I'm thinking this is simply game art. It's not common for sports titles, but most other games have plenty of artwork produced before release for various reasons - concepts, marketing etc. This is just a peice of marketing artwork.

Wish I knew fellas. Michael Young would have to answer that one.

I pinged Mike on Twitter, we'll see if he responds. Or he may respond here.

I think you're probably right, but this is from the videos, and most the shots from the videos really aren't that great looking.

It's a real photo of Hillis taken last week.

Via Mike on Twitter.

Sorry gang I wasn't trying to fool anyone. My primary purpose of my twitter account is to promote my sports photography work. I think we may try to match this with game art in the near future though.
 
# 34 dan_457 @ 05/08/11 08:11 PM
I'm actually surprised that it's a real photo, and not just a pre-rendered graphic. It looks realistic, just not "real" I guess. Kind of interesting.

This is an awesome picture, set it as my desktop wallpaper. Still waiting to see the official cover of Madden. Hopefully it shares this theme.

That'd be great. Comparing the real picture to one you guys take in game would be nice. I'm pretty sure though that you could use this picture as the boxart and we'd all be happy.

Yes that is a in game pic, i know what a real helmet looks like since ive played my entire life, that has a cartoony type glow to it which is what madden has been doing the last couple years, and yes this can be done on this gen hardware, you see it on ps3 all the time, kz2, kz3, uncharted 2 and 3, mgs 4 etc
 
# 38 bmj2k7 @ 05/09/11 02:46 AM
Sorry meant to say not a in game pic, but a like a portrait based off of madden, bc it dosent look real, looks like a madden cartoony version

Cool picture though. Is this facemask going to be in cause I don't believe Peyton had this last year?
