What the hell are you talking about with holograms?? The refs aren't hollow, they just jump out of the way so as to not mess up the play or anything. Nothing to be negative about.

Guys can we just get along. lol

I hate to burst wolfpacks bubble here, but everything on your TV screen is a hologram, unless you watch TV at Kenny Maynes house. What you seem to be complaining about is lack of collision detection for the refs. There is in fact collision detection in the code for the refs. They just compute "hey, Im going to get ran over by a 220 pound guy wearing hard industrial strength plastics and I think its time I move the f' out of the way". So they are in fact interactive refs who respond to stimuli, they are just programed (much like their real life counterparts) to have a keen interest in self preservation. You seem to think refs should behave as 6 foot brick walls in the playing feild or something, which is not sim. Unless Madden cloned a bunch of Ed Hochulis, which also is not sim, and will alienate our Charger fans.

O.....K......I'm not even going there with this bickering so I'll just state what, I, personally, got out of reading that article which is MORE EXCITEMENT!!!! Madden really seems back on track, improving on the small step they made last year by taking a GIGANTIC leap forward for Madden 10 and I can APPRECIATE that and all the hard work Ian and Co have done. Heck, I appreciated last year's version over the Madden 08 PS3 horribleness.

So, tonite, more NCAA 10 demo, tomorrow, the actual retail game then next week, the pre-order, longer version of the Madden 10 demo goes live, followed by a shorter, different scenario and teams demo the week after...then AUG 14TH, MY FRIENDS!! Lol. Great time to be a football fan, like me.

lol...who cares about refs? i'm glad they're in the game but lets not get ahead of ourselves. the only thing i'm worried about is gameplay and franchise.

You won't buy the game, ok I get that. You want to voice your opinion though, ok I get that. But your opinion that your supposedly voicing is about f'in refs that can't block a runners way. They add refs, people want them to throw flags. They add collision detecting refs, people want them to get in the way of players. Can anything these guys throw into this game satisfy anyone? I want the refs to throw flags, but what does it matter really? Why would you want refs to be in the way of the game?

Actually, the fact that he is nit-picking this little unneccessary thing, means that the Madden 10 crew did their job.

. He is seriously complaining that refs don't get in the way of the game. Oh and stop saying holograms. They aren't, you can't run through them, they run away from you.

haha, great point. You don't see too many refs get knocked to the ground in the NFL... maybe once per game at the most.

Anyways, in regards to the preview, the one thing that I read that caught my attention was at the end when the previewer mentioned the AI getting an overhaul as well, at least he speculated, as he talked about how the cpu was handling its business against him.

Yet they keep quoting the man

About the preview, should be a decent read, even though I don't expect anything new.
