I plan on trying out the zoomed camera angle. The game looks beautiful and I want to be closer to the field....plus it seems it would be more life like and more of a challenge. Heck I may even give the broadcast angle a run and see if it can be played smoothly that way as well.

Snorts and giggles to you, potnuh. *****, non-sensical comment if ever there were one....

At any rate, I guess they couldn't get the new snow deformity that they said would be in this Madden to stick or sumthin. Not seeing any other body parts affecting the snow other than feet, as usual. Disappointing after they said it would be in there unless that's an old build.

Whatever the case, I like what I'm seeing and after playing the NCAA 12 demo over and over, I'm more than excited for Madden 12.

Did you go to E3 or the EA Summer Showcase? Or are you just talking about these videos, because the game is going to look even better in person.

Why is it snowing in the pre-game tunnel? lol

Game looks great though!

They are turning madden into facebook, where you can create your own page, upload photos and game highlights,invite friends and send messages out to players that play like you. Online community? Sounds like some way of capitalizing on the popularity of social networking sites to me.

# 27 Elgin2311 @ 07/10/11 09:34 PM

The game LOOKS great tho

# 28 Broncos86 @ 07/10/11 09:57 PM

Looking great. The tackles look great. The run by Moreno up the middle was a great example of what the new tackling has to offer.

No online communities is much deeper than that, can't say how deep, but we'll all find out on Friday. It's no joke I promise you that.

Wow, am I the only one smh at this video?

How can it be a great year when the outcome is undecided on the results of the latest EA NFL football effort? Hardcore fans want an Online Franchise that is as fully fleshed out as NCAA Dynasty. Why are we still waiting for this? Also, the pylons used to fall over during the PS2 days. This is nothing new.

Many players will skip the intro's (fluff) after seeing them a couple of times. You know - "X" right through it to kick off. It seems to me the Dev Team has fumbled the ball again. He clearly talks about the "social aspect" of gaming with these online communities. What does he think NCAA Dynasty Mode does for their fans? A fully featured Online Franchise would accomplish the same thing for the "social aspect" of gaming.

Maybe we should mash the X button and see if we can fight for the fumble and secure ourselves a fully developed Online Franchise to compete with the NCAA Dynasty. Here's to hoping for EA NFL Football 13...

How do you know? Im guessing it will span through all easports games, kind of what COD and Battlefield are doing for their games.

"Every Football game??" theres only 3, and 2 are made by the same developer.. Backbreaker did it.. But ya know, you go right ahead and can keep settling for mediocre.. Let me know how that turns out

Lmao and Stealing tackles is a term that has never been used before until this video came out.

Backbreaker has way more problems than Madden has ever had. It has made for some hilarious youtube videos though so I'll give it that. If you want to keep believing Madden is mediocre compared to Backbreaker you may not want to watch these because the truth hurts.

How did they play the M12 Demo if its not out yet!!

They played Madden 12 a few weeks back at E3 and then earlier at community days, not the M12 demo though.

I didn't even get to a couple, I did that the 2nd game I played on the NCAA demo haha they look great but I personally don't give a $het about the intros and feel like they wasted dev time on it. would have rather it gone to things like ohhh Idk, player momentum maybe?. But I do love the camera cuts on the sidelines and the huddles.

Lmao That stuff is hilarious.. I aint say the game was good, I just said every player was physically involved in the play..

# 39 roadman @ 07/11/11 01:13 AM

I skipped presentation on all the other football games, I'm sure I will do it on EA's too.

Options aren't a bad thing, though. I'd rather have the presentation than not have it, especially those camera angles. Wow.

By the way, not a good idea to mention the other games in the these forums. It's one of the rules in these forums. Just an FYI.

Yeah especially the video with Joe Flacco. "This is a dead body" LOL

The answer isn't physics alone as these videos more than prove, so if they do implement them next year it's going to have to be done with great oversight and attention to detail.
