." It sure sounds a lot simpler than getting real NFL players to crash around the set,

To a certain degree they did. Retired nfl players now working for espn would preform the play in their suits before this...

Looks like that car commercial where there's a crash in progress and the guy with the British accent (to make him sound more intelligent of course!) walks around and explains how everything works.

Sweet, always up for tech enhancements to analytical shows.

Cool!

Didn't UEFA or some other world-stage soccer tournament recently use PES or FIFA for their broadcasts?

Why ruin great graphics by inserting a RL middle aged sportscaster? Surely a computer generated and bikini-clad blond would be a much better fit.

Weird. EA won't integrate the ESPN presentation into Madden, but ESPN is integrating Madden into NFL Countdown (and no, I don't think EA is the devil). I would kind of like to use the Hit Stick on Chris Mortensen.

Is that Merrill Hoge? What an asshole?

Is it wrong to hate Madden 09 because the two things i did best in 08 don't work for shit in 09 (HB Screens and the ENTIRE running game)

I suck at passing, but i used to be able to use my run game to set it up and be successful, now I'm terrible at both.

Is anyone else having these issues?

PS
The playbooks suck too.

Saw this yesterday. My kids were like "Are those players real?" and "Won't that guy get hit?". Pretty impressive and I hope they use it a lot more often.

Perhaps even have the players be half size so the analysts can step over them to explain what's going on.
