I really don't mind it being used for comparison purposes.

Videos showing differences, constructive critiques between the two that could actually help make a difference are fine.


What's not fine is bring it up as a means of bashing Madden. It is counter productive and starts unnecessary back and forths as you saw in this thread.

Agreed 100%.

The "Intelligent Commentary" blog is very underwhelming. Why not give us some specific examples, preferably in unedited video form, of what we'll hear during Connected Franchise?

Dynamic commentary is now a standard of the sports gaming industry, so I'm curious to the extent of this feature in Madden.

As Neil Peart wrote and Geddy Lee sang, "Show, don't tell". This goes for the Living Worlds info as well.

How will the crowd sound during actual gameplay? Will they stand up and react with or without the appropriate audio cues? If Calvin Johnson catches a game-winning touchdown in overtime against Green Bay, will Packer fans celebrate as well?

These may be silly questions, but they're necessary ones to ask for the purposes of authenticity.

I agree. The blog was meaningless, like they threw it together at the last minute. They talk about Kolbe and the other producer, but just throw together some short, vague comments that aren't attributed to anyone. Aye!

If you're talking to me I wasn't referring to your post or any post in particular at all.

Dynamic play by play and color sound great and have long been needed ala 2K basketball.

This will further the immersion factor for CFM.

I have some good vibes that this game will evolve far faster and greater than it did this gen. I mean wow for me M25 finally gave me a Madden game(for the PS3) I can say I will play for a long time.

My hope is by the time I go next gen (this time next year probably) that Madden 15 will be the ultimate Madden.

Time will tell.

I am just wondering why they can't just "show" us all this stuff instead of just putting up a blog post with nothing but text.

The game does come out next week after all . . .

Maybe because there's nothing to show

That says a lot imo, and not in a good way.

I couldn't care less about the crowd or commentary. Pour those resources into gameplay, animations and graphics.

I don't get how you don't care about crowd its a huge part of football.

Without fans there would be no NFL.

Commentary year to year? I'm not going to hear that my QB is still in his 9th year, 5 seasons into my CFM?

Well if you relate these editions to how they've translated on this Gen, Danielle Bellini is worthless after every injury she talks about how bad it is and how a player is going to be out- yet the same player is back in the following play. Phil Simms constantly repeats the same lines and makes the same mistakes with injuries as well. EA lacks attention to detail and it translates into a bunch of mixed garbage that actually retracts from the experience rather than add to it. Thats why they don't want to show us anything, look at the sidelines from what you've seen so far not that impressive and the player models still look generic.

Living worlds is cool ea but where are the women and children? Just asking!
