Is he even involved with the game anymore? I remember when the 15 anniversary game game out they should him involved with the development. Does Madden have the ESPN license? If so, why not use some of their guys like they do for NCAA?

Because EA/Tiburon is dare I say, a little ********?

always someone b******* about something. u complain about madden commentary, they take him out due to MANY people complaining about it being stale. they bring in the announcer guy and u complain (i do agree he sucked though but i didnt care if they kept him in) and they take him out. many people BEGGED for them to bring new announcing team. they do that and u STILL complain.

and u wonder why EA dont listen to people most of the time. if u dont like it, cut off the announcers and pump up the crowd noise or your stereo!

EXACTLY!!! for years people have complained about madden and wanting new announcers, then they do get announcers, that are not madden, and people come out of the woodwork to say "WHY ISN'T IT MADDEN?" jesus, pathetic!! why isn't it madden? Because Madden SUCKS at commentary in video games and we've been hearing him for what, 20 years now or whatever???

Of course with a new commentary team and their 1000 lines of commentary it will get repetitive but not to worry next year EA will include even more lines, the cycle starts again.

At least they realize that commentators can help to immerse you into the game and is part of the presentation that was lacking.

I wonder who's bright idea it was at EA to take them out in the first place.

whoever it was, i hope they were fired

sleeker player models and exterior stadium views.


yeah, this is what we're looking for.

WHAT ABOUT THE GAMEPLAY, ONLINE AND FRANCHISE ISSUES? PLEASE TELL US SOMEONE IS WORKING ON ALL THE PROBLEMS WE'VE BEEN TELLING YOU ABOUT FOR THE PAST 2-3 YEARS!!! i don't give a crap what the outside of a stadium looks like. just like we don't give a crap about filling up our ring. FIX THE GAMEPLAY ISSUES, PLEASE.

Here's to hoping. yes, the game looks great once again, but that don't cut it anymore.
