Madden NFL 12 Videos - Virtual Playbook Gameplay and Presentation

The camera angles have really left me speechless. I didn't think I would ever see actual broadcast views in this game. I don't care if it has an EA logo on the broadcast PIP, the camera angles are the best they have ever been in a Madden game.

Gotta say im really impressed with the way madden is showcasing their game. It really shows that they are not hiding anything about the game and that they are willing to show it kudos to the madden team. please Mike Young if you listening please address the jets jerseys the numbers on the sleeves are extremely too small. thanks

Pretty cool stuff, can see some complaints coming from certain people about Revis sliding along though. He moves like 3 yards sideways without taking a step.

I totally agree. I couldn't be happier right now(I could but why ruin it). Loving the presentation additions. It's gonna add so much for me. Can't wait to get my hands on this game.

Very nice, but I dont care about any of this unless franchise is greatly improved. If it is, all of this is gravy.

May 16th really cant come soon enough.

The clip with Marshall Faulk looks like the spin and juke moves still force animations and outcomes. Defenders will be forced into "juked out of his shoes" animations. Still very unrealistic. That "other game" did a fantastic job in a lot of areas, and this is another one of them.

To me, it isn't really fair when EA shows us some stuff. You see mistakes/problems in NCAA... well, they are college players just making college player mistakes. They show Revis in the Sizzle trailer jerk one way and then slide back and tip a pass... well that's Revis, so that's okay. We see Marshall Faulk, a mast of the spin move, juke some Seahawks player. Built in excuses for game play issues.

Also, still LOTS of sliding in these videos.

EDIT: In the second video, despite what they SAID about ball physics, when you watch @ the 8min mark, we still have the classic Madden ball physics as it is jarred lose with a big hit. :sigh: There are improvements, but it doesn't look earth shaking by any means.

Does this mean we get a more refined broadcast cam to play with?

At the end of the day, I am a huge fan of long videos. I hope they continue to release long videos. I got tired of the 1 minute or 35 seconds videos.

Release an 8 or 9 minute video talking about a specific feature thoroughly is the way to go. So these videos were great.

Jamming 8 different things in a 1 minute video doesn't work, stuff get lost in the transalation.

Plus them standing on the VR field talking about what we are about to see was cool, they should continue doing that.
