I agree with you and did notice it seemed like a highlight reel that was skipped. Plus a cutscene that was skipped.

Just watched the pick 4 more times and I still don't see a problem with it besides he turns the wrong way. He turned his back to the ball, but besides that it was a good play.

Yea I agree, but Revis is an elite CB. As long as scrub no name CB's don't make that play , and only CB's like Nmadi and Revis do it, I see no problem with it.

LOL ... Sorry about that BC; I guess I lapsed into "playing Madden at home mode", and wanted to rush through the highlight reel.

Exactly PR; Revis was on a light blue/flat zone assignment in that play.

It definitley was audio coming over from the next kiosk JP.

KOACHK, I remember an interview you did with Ian earlier in the year saying the crowd has new AI for appropriate times to stand and cheer, or if an opposing team makes a big play to stay seated, etc.

From the E3 videos it looks as though the crowd is constantly standing and clapping no matter what is happening on the field. Did you notice this? What happened to the crowd AI?

Thanks!

Games looking great. I agree that I don't like the new kicking meter though, it does seem like a huge step backwards. I wonder if there is really any reward for not kicking 100% on shorter kicks? I mean, the way it should be, is if you are kicking a short kick you shouldn't be trying to get 100% because 100% would be a low trajectory and possibly be blocked. I doubt it makes any difference though..

Well the current kicking system is crap to so doesn't really matter IMO. I don't think we've ever had a kicking system that wasn't automatic and had drama in it.

I remember the way we did it as a house rule was we played on Heisman or All-Madden and before any FG you had to do a shot of Jack or down a beer. By the 2nd half of the game it was really hard to make field goals.
