Here is some examples of what I am talking about.

Add these things to these pictures and you got a image VERY similar to the Marshall Faulk pic.

1) Improved Player Models
2) Improved Lighting engine
3) 3D grass, I don't think people realize how much this improves the realism of the shots. Imagine some of these images with the 3D grass and you can see how real they would look.

And I'm bolding this to prevent any confusion:
THE FOLLOWING ARE MADDEN 11 SCREENS RELEASED LAST MAY





What you think? I think the Madden 12 promotional screens are better than the Madden 11 ones from last May. Either EA has gotten better at selecting ideal screens or the game's graphics really have improved. I'm thinking the latter

Well Madden 11 did look those screenshots on my tv, so I dont see how they were touched up.

Yea the Faulk pic was not touched up. It was just a great shot taken from the perfect angle with the new lighting, new player models, and the excellent 3D grass. You get a picture that is boarder line photo realistic. Hell NCAA 11 had some pics that looked board line photo realistic and it did not have any of the new improvements.

Touching up promotional shots IS a common practice. If anyone doubts this, you are free to doubt it. Won't change that it happens. A LOT!

Agreed, but claiming that the Faulk shot won't look like that on our TV's will be false and I can promise there will be a "Photographic side of Madden 12" thread with pictures just as good. Mark my words.




I don't see a big stretch from the above to this with the new lighting, new color, new player models, and the excellent 3d grass

I think the only big differences between the NCAA 11 shots and the Faulk shot is the more vibrant colors, better lighting, and 3d grass. Add those to NCAA 11 shot and you have same quality pic as the Faulk one, in my opinion.

Look like Tarzan....play like Jane.

If the pic was enhanced, which I never said it definitively was, but if it was, it will not look exactly like that on your TV, no. Whether you notice the difference or not is another story.

Many will not notice doctoring, even when it is obvious to others. Not implying anything with that statement. It's just a statement of fact.

That hasn't been true for years, but I'm a Cubs fan so there's always hope that this is our year!

You got THAT right! I sure do!

But alas, Madden will have to suffice if I want my NFL football fix. The pic does look nice though.

Not hatin' anymore, just wishing.

The graphics look great. I hope this means we get classic teams.

If we do, Madden will be a must buy for me for the first time in a very long time.
