realistic madden 08

what are some little things that you guys think make madden more realistic. well when I was playing my madden08 I sent my RB on a post-rout, and during the cut he made, I notice he stumbled and had to use his hand to keep his balance and I was really impressed to see that because I don't know about anyone else but little things like that makes the game more realistic and more fun to play. anything else that you guys notice thats realistic about madden

Ya that gets pretty annoying. All you need to do is throw a deep bomb and touchdown.

I was a ctually dissapointed in the weather graphics on the 360 anyway. I didn't find them realistic at all. Sure the graphics of the field getting tore up and the water building up are cool, but there isn't enough splashing and the uniforms don't get muddy enough. I want the rainy games to be like the miami pitt game this year where the uniforms are brown, and i want the snow to build during the game like the green bay playoff game, but maybe thats asking too much for now. I do like what the did with fans making them individual people instead of a solid entity, even though there are too many duplicates and it looks like a bunch of people dressed alike dancing in unisen.

I like when it rains the rain drops land on your screen. It makes you feel like your there.

I know what you mean about the uniforms not getting dirty enough, to me it does not seem like they get dirty at all.

I think play action works really good this year as well. The tackling looks good this year to.

I also like that if there is a bad throw, and it bounces of a WR or defender, a differnt receiver can catch the bad throw.

Actually the gameplay this year is pretty smooth. I mean the DBs actually defend. Hopefully, next year they do improve Madden since now they have a new Madden Production guy. I think.

Yeah that is pretty cool except when a defender picks it off and runs it back for a td. Its also nice to see that the players helmets do not fall off every time they get hit like on last years Madden.
