I don't care what EA does. I mean, what ever happened to "It's in the game"?

Think about your comment for a second. How simple were the refs and chain gang in '93? They were just sprites essentially.

Now though, they not only have to design and create the ref characters, they also have to give them AI to avoid the ball, players, etc. Simply put, they were waiting for a year in which they weren't developing for more important areas (ie. gameplay) to do this.

I agree these are features they should have had from the start but it is still nice to know that we will be getting them next year. The game is all we have when it comes to NFL so I for one am happy.

The last time I checked, replay footage was the actual game footage. What's wrong with the graphics not changing? Madden 08 was the best looking football game, ever. Don't give me Blitz the league, that game looked horrible, and All-Pro Football looked like crap.

The visuals look great. They fix and upgrade every year. This year it seems to be the stadiums and updated player models, which look great.

People are too busy destroying Madden just because they hate EA when in reality, Madden (besides 06 on 360) has always been a very good football game.
