JK...I hope it's patched though I...

Good Point. If your working on an NFL specific celebration there is no excuse for not knowing exactly what that celebration looks like.

The problem is that there seems to be a bug with the Green Bay-specific logic (i.e. it's not working) - so there's a random chance that you could get that Spiderman-looking thing when you run to the wall. Many people were speculating this...you all were right. It's just the wrong animation being played. So I guess it's better than nothing, as there's a 25% chance that you'll get the actual real Lambeau Leap. I'm still looking into whether we can patch this to be 100% though.

so will we see both of the Lambeau Leap variations that you showed the mocap videos from a few pages back or just the second one?

Please, it has nothing to do with that. Just because you want madden to be the best it can be and you criticize it, doesn't mean it has anything to do with 2k. Comments like this are what start those silly EA/2K wars that used to happen so often. EA is NOT putting out the greatest football game ever this year, so if the criticism helps them to get more things right for now and in the future, then that will be good for all football fans. I haven't read many comments that were complaining just to complain. Just because YOU don't care about the lambeau leap and other details doesn't mean they aren't important to other people. I'm a diehard cowboys fan and don't care too much for the Packers but an "accurate" Lambeau leap adds to the "little things" in the game that IMO madden has never had.

At one point somebody at Tiburon thought it was cool to add the air raid sound on deep passes and it lasted a couple years. Same as someone thinking the QB animations were good enough/cool for the past four years. Or any other number of other issues. Back in the day 989 gave gamers the ability to breakdance after sacks, and because of the direction the game went the game died shortly after. NBA2K8's standing teleport dunk irritates many people to no end. I'm sure they'll remove it for NBA2K9, if there is a 2K9 (grrrrrr). Doesn't seem like it's as much a mistake as someone thought it was cool to add it in the first place. It's not a personal attack; it's happened with many sports games.

This is what gets me... I was looking on youtube and came across this:



Which was posted today by EASPORTSRAC. Where's it at?

Ian, is there anyway we can get a list of any player specific celebrations and the general ones as well? I know someone mentioned some like throwing the ball at the other team's logo on the wall, Larry Johnson's diamond, etc. Being from Dallas, I would love to see Terrell Owens do his T-O thing with his arms which he did a lot more often than the dances. Or I would like to see Randy Moss' little superman celebration as well
