The packers are well represented and it's deserved because they are a great team, but should it be about great teams or all 32 teams in the ONLY game that represents the NFL and not their records that create the "cool kids" vibe? Like i said, at the LEAST, the QB should be well detailed in this game as the leader of the team, and one of the main faces. Fitz was all over the media last season, but then the BILLS disintegrated and that was that, but should the consumer suffer? Those guys along with other shafted NFL players in Madden had great stats and performed well. Why not give them the treatment in game? Instead of Michael "hulk" Irvin, I should have gotten Stevie Johnson, now Cowboys fans rejoice, and I get Flava Flav's generic face.

XD good one.


I'm not saying it's all about the Packers though. I was just giving an example. And it's pretty obvious I'm gonna me more harsh on Madden for my Green Bay Packers before any other team.

Anyways, I care about every team in the league! I'm a football man at heart. Born in Illinois with a family of Bears fans, and still root for the Bears if they're not playing the Packers and follow a marrated number of teams around the league (As crazy as that sounds) So back on topic.. I really do feel your pain man. About this game, and all the problems it has each year in every aspect of it. I'm in no way a Madden homer. I just like to look for the good in the game, that's all.

I feel ya man. I ask you to put yourself in the shoes of me as a consumer and somone who wants MADDEN to be the best game. I opened my game last year, couldn't wait to see the BILLS who broke out a season before with stats and popularity to finally be repped in game....

Fitz = no beard, Rookie scan

SJ13 ( most popular BILL ) OLD portrait, generic face (looked like Donald Driver and flava flav had a child)

Fred Jackson - Generic face.

I just let it go, still annoyed but tried to play though it. Playing a season with my team and seeing how outdated they were just plain sucked, even the endzones were outdated and wrong.

FF>>>>>>>>>> This season from the videos so far. Same thing
Blue endzone is a year late, but finally present, but my boys are still the same dudes they were 3 Madden's ago.

^That stung and crushed my hopes for this season^

I give this game all the chances in the world each season when I shouldn't, and they steal the good away that I try desperately to find in it.

The graphical quality is good but it doesn't look much like him. Looks too diesel.

Plus he is missing a huge part of his popularity THE BEARD! Not to mention EA decided to pour an entire season's worth of "Just for men" on his model, because last time I checked, the guy is dark blonde lol.

Welcome to EA not giving a hoot about a team or it's fans. If there were real fans in that office instead of updates being based on winning records, they would make the little things matter.

If so, why are the stripes in the right place on the Ronnie Lott and Walter Payton screenshots?

These screenshots look like they've been Photoshop'd some, not captured straight off the running game.

While it looks "good", I think its to beefy and thick to be an accurate model of Irvin. But Madden has always had this problem to me of their models in general looking "bigger" than the real life players do on TV.

But I can't trash the Madden models too much because to me the NFL 2K (including APF 2K8) models have appeared on the thin side to me. No one seems to have gotten it totally right.

I wish EA would concentrate more on how the players look playing in motion on the field in their games instead of how pretty their models look in a still screenshot. No one plays the game in freeze frame. This is their 8th release on the 360 and while its improved some, the players still look to robotic in to many parts of the game.
