We have just posted a pretty in depth Madden 09 Comparison Video. The video focuses on areas of the game that have been improved since Madden 08 such as environments, weather effects and player models.

Bottom line is that no matter what I say or what positives I or anyone else points out about the game, you're going to find something wrong with it. So I'll continue to look at the positives and accept the negatives and you can look at the negatives and ignore the positives and we'll both be happy.
looks tight as do the Ian vids... does anyone know if NCAA is getting the same treatment? tackling, running, lighting etc
I've seen the vids of NCAA but they are not showcasing the same stuff (marketing?)

So your praising of postiive aspects are "that looks good but..."? This is the same song and dance that you've done each of the past few years, since the exclusive license deal. You will find one thing that you are "expecting" and once you know that its not implemented, you will continually beat it to death.
And didn't you buy the game the past few years?

Looks good, there's no doubt that EA has made strides, i just hope they made them where they count (Making the games seem like they matter, turnovers, presentation, etc)

This video is no new information. Environment is wonderful. To be honest, the player models did not look distinct in that video the way they were displayed. In other videos I've noticed that the skin texture of the player models looks better. Hopefully EA eliminated those military faces.
I honestly can't believe I am about to say this. But madden is looking AMAZING!!!
Comparison Review
Lighting = Nice step forward
Weather = Not even a comparison, top notch
Player models = OMG, Nearing PERFECTION

But seriously, the detail on the player models is great. Everything graphically is boosted on this title, and it flows more smoothly. Simon is the bomb! Give him a HUGE raise EA!!!!!!

anyone who says they can see, FROM THIS VIDEO, any real differences in player models is lying to himself.
I will admit that in OTHER videos, players in motion appear to be better and the lighting is improved, but I honestly don't see it in this video. if I asked my girlfriend what's the difference between the first and second one, she would probably say nothing. in fact... i think i'll test that out today when I get off.

Afrikan - First of all I can't understand how you can interpret Ian Cummings posting here as somehow a negative thing in regars to it's "viral marketing". First of all, each person here should have a mind of their own and be able to determine if he is BS'ing or not and second of all communication between the community and EA is not just a marketing tool, he has proven some things will be in the game that were not going to be before (for instance the weapon icons and square lighted up TD celebration icons being toggable to off).
Secondly, I've heard the "cartoony" criticism before but to me that is about the furthest thing from the truth in regards to what I'm seeing in Madden 09 clips. Cartoony to me implies ultra colorful, short, squat player models who run around like cartoons (Fred Flintstone) and the only way I can see that you're seeing this is the fact that now the field is more varied in color because of the ultra-improved lighting. I don't know how you can look at the player models and feel they are cartoony, although I know in the PS2 last-gen games that could be a definitive statement, I just don't see that in these current models. And in regards to the color, I'm not sure if you've been to a real NFL game or not but I have and I can tell you that the field and the areas around it are usually quite colorful unless it's a gray, overcast and/or snowy day.
Everyone is entitled to their opinion but I honestly cannot see where you are coming from in regards to those first two comments. I'm glad to see that you do say though that you can usually enjoy Madden because bottom line that is what the game is supposed to bring to you: enjoyment.
