This is something I'm curious to try out for myself.

With the looseness of the game's controls, I doubt they will be similar. I could be wrong, however, to the detriment of gamers everywhere.

I'm surprised no cover athlete has been announced yet. I wonder what the hold up is ??

At least there is now a controlled shot release by the user. How that was not in 08 is beyond me... It sounds like it will play similiar to last year but with playcalling, and new modes. I would of rather heard that the animations are much better then last year and players do not look robotic.

Please find out. I hope to God that they didnt implement those canned animations and make you play "guess where"

I like how it sounds but my imagination isn't exactly reality. I'm definitely more interested in how this game plays. It's closer to a buy/try than a watch the impressions. SO far, the body models look better because they're filling out the little things and making differetn body parts thicker like they should be in comparison to their real-life counterparts.
