I noticed that on Pete Carroll as well. Looked like he was wearing a neck roll under his polo.

Marty B is too skinny.

Why is everyone hating on the default camera angle? Saying it's too far away and the players "look like ants"?

I don't know what you guys are seeing, but the camera is perfectly fine for me. During passes I can see all of my receivers and follow their routes without difficulty.

Anyone else having a problem? When I go to the demo area it doesn't show up at all. When I'm in the home area it shows up as like the first ad. When I click I get this message, "There's a problem with XBOX Live marketplace. Please try again later. Status code: 8C230002"

Ha ha...the coaches should be on the field. I think they could annhilate half the players on the field.

I think tackling took a step back because there is some terrible things that happen about 50% or more of the time.

Also, its time for a custom cam. Its very subjective, but for me this cam so far away kills the game. 2k5, and Madden 10 had the perfect standard cams. You could see the entire field(even flats, screens,etc), yet were much closer. Maddens cam doesn't zoom in and out correctly post snap. Just stays zoomed out far. Pre snap is WAY to close.

I know some people don't care about cams, but it's a big one for me. Hard to see anything from so far away,
Wheel,

I know you made a few complaints about the camera, but did you know about the new zoom camera this year. Sounds like you didn't know about it.

I would like some feedback without reading 200+ pages lol. Hit me up on Twitter. I want to know how people at OS are feeling in general. Were the GC and I right? I mean we prepped everyone for the June 4th announcement, it came and went. It was dissected endlessly in the forums up until this point. Now you can get your hands on it today. Get at me. Even hit me in PM's here.

@AzureEffect

Probably not that early. Watch the playstation blog for the store update post, that will let you know when it's up.

Alternatively, just refresh the store like a madman.

Even if it's something out of place I'm still loving that something different can happen other than what i'm expecting when a tackle animation begins.

hmm, i don't generally spend much time with madden, although i buy it every year. i was really thinking this year madden might swing me away from NCAA however i'm not really getting a good impression about the game reading through all these pages.

i know that often when the new iteration of the game drops it often takes, at least for me, some time to adjust and really appreciate it.

thanks for the impressions thus far guys.

Haven't been able to play it yet but If its anything like NCAA then it is too far away. Yes you can see all your receievers but its so far zoomed out that you cant get immersed into the play like you could if it was just a little closer.

Just saw a play where the Giants sacked Alex Smith. He glided, very quickly about 9 yards backwards on his back after being sacked!!! WTF?

That camera angle is awful. If it was higher it would be cool but I dont like the field level views.

I find it to be largely similar (aside from the shots being pulled out some). I'd go as far as to say the cam work seems more polished this year, but I'd like to spend more time with the demo before I make such a declaration.
Madden 12 looked much more like a broadcast from this aspect. Madden 13 they show the same 2 views EVERY play, and they are zoomed out so it looks like NCAA to me. There are no tight zooms to give it that authentic looks, and they don't really cut to multiple players like last year. They actually added post play cut scenes back which totally kills the look, just like NCAA, because they look like they are from hand held cams. It just looks so much more like a video game again than it did last year.
