Traditionally there has never been much insight into the upcoming Madden before the NFL Draft. This year all that has changed with the Inside EA Blog postings and the first two screenshots having already been officially unveiled and broken down. Ian Cummings, lead designer of Madden 10, today posted a new screenshot. You can see it full size in the gallery.

The new screen does a good job of displaying some of the subtle improvements that have been made including the procedural awareness. There is an agressiveness being shown by the receiver that has never been apparent in previous iterations and the defensive back is not making a flailing leap into the air to bat the ball down. There is still a long ways to go but the natural look to the screens thus far is certainly encouraging.

You must not be paying attention…….they've already re-done dozens of animations to make gameplay more realistic (qb drops,fb dives,wr/db jostling,etc.) and drastically improved lighting and depth of feild finally for improved graphics soooooooooooooo yeah these little "touches" are GREAT!!!! Now just—–>

1. add kicking meter

E. Manning's mask is wrong too! If EA put as much time making sure that NBA Live has signature looks and likenesses then why can't they make NFL players look identical to their real-life counterparts. All RB's and WR's look the same to me in Madden…..have Portis wear his colored socks extra high…make B.Jacobs look like….well……BRANDON JACOBS!!!

I agree its crazy how much better/realistic nba live is compared to madden… whoever is over nba live knows their stuff

I'm amazed at how many people come in here to post just to talk shit about EA and Madden. Yes they haven't lived up to 2k gameplay yet but you would have to be blind to not realize that they have been working hard to bring back Madden from arcade to realistic.

Also, if this was last year we would have zero info now other than the press release so they still have not released any big features yet just little touches. If you go into this game expecting shit from EA then there is no chance you will be able to enjoy it. It would be like playing The Show and complaining that the players go through each other, focusing on the things it does bad rather than the all things it does good. I am going into this game with an open mind and if EA doesn't deliver then I will go back to All Pro Football but I am going to give it a fair chance first rather than hating on it before I've seen any gameplay videos.

The thing about the show is that the amazing gameplay and realism makes you look past things like players going through eachother everynow and then. If the show was like Madden you would have pitchers hitting 400ft HRs (like scrub LBs jumping 10ft into the air to pick a ball off), players just appearing at the mound instead of cutscences with stats, and every batting stance and pitching delivery would be the exact same. If the show was like that I bet people would be talking shit about it.
YES this year is looking alot more promising but statements they have made "what you see on sunday youll see in madden" and "most realistic madden to date" has been hear before from previous years yet were left dissapointed. I'm not giving madden shit but im not going to praise pics and statments they say. When the game come out ill rent it and give it a chance but their track record just shows dissapointment.

Yes I agree I didn't mean to compare The Show to Madden because clearly they aren't even close to on the same level. However, my point is that there are people out there who are going to hate Madden regardless of how good it is this year and point out the negatives. I'm not sold that Madden will be great this year but people keep making remarks about how they are just changing little things that aren't important and it will ultimately be the same game when they really haven't released any big info yet. People need to at least wait until Madden starts talking about the bigger gameplay improvements and videos of gameplay before they trash it.
Like I said before if Madden comes out like it has the past few years then I will be the first one to go right back to All Pro Football but I am going to wait and see before I make that decision.

Pasta, any word on if they'll be putting in the "Wild Cat" formation or even just some gadget plays at the very least? There are no WR reverse, dbl WR reverse, WR toss,HB toss,etc………..I saw one flea-flicker last year and was SHOCKED that they actually had one! You see the Steelers & Pats use them like once a game.
