    If it is not possible for you to explain why this is dumb, then you shouldn't make a statement like that.

    They are trying to replicate the personalities of the players in the NFL in Madden, and this added player emotion is something the game has been seriously lacking in the past.

      I think it's a great idea! It brings more personality into the game. I don't want to see a tough as nails FB doing some stupid dance move that he would never do in real life. On the other hand I do want to see those real showboating players react how they would in real life. Having a rating like this allows for realistic player celebrations/antics as opposed to some randomly generated animation that would be completely out of character for some real life players.

        Adding a simple rating for celebration isn't the same as someones personality, it's not that simple. This is a very basic feature/rating imo, and all the players are probably going have identical celebrations, and not their unique personalites and gestures. So this feature is strictly what it says it's going be, a celebration rating, not a personality rating which is much different. Brett favres personality and celebrations are much different than chad johnsons.

          I have no idea if there are real life player's celebrations....but that was not my point.

          I don't want to see a FB high stepping down the field, it would look stupid and most likely be out of character for him. However seeing Randy Moss doing it would be quite expected.
          Swagger at least attempts to add a little more realism to "what we see on Sunday".

            I bet a lot of players are going to be more upset about this rating then their speed, or Overall rating.

            Do this today: Instead of $%*#!@& on a game you're not going to play or movie you're not going to watch, say something good about a piece of media you're excited about.

            Do the same thing tomorrow. And the next. Now do it forever.

                Yep. Once again. An avenue that could have been used to add depth to the game only adds fluff. Way to go.

                      Lmao.

                      They couldn't work on franchise mode but they had time to add this?

                      I'm completely speechless.

                          Ed Reed with a 97.

                          I'm going to guess all Da U players will have high swagger. :P

                            The same BUT this may sound goofy or what not but I would love to have a "Create a Celebration" mode.
                            I mean you can create a finisher in SvR etc...
                            Let me create my very own celebration move to use after each one of my created (Safety) selfs big hits or Int's!!!

                                Yah, this is actually pretty cool... should hopefully add more personality to individualize the players.
