The EA hate on this forum is ridiculous some times.

It's not EA hate. I just want them to get it right is all. Yes, I have played the show, and yes, that game blew my mind with the attention to detail. (Lazy is the last word I would use to describe it)

All I'm saying is that Madden has been on the "next generation" of consoles since 06 and this garbage doesn't fly anymore. IT CAN BE DONE. Player accuracy is important to me.

Get it done this year!

No offense intended, but is hair really the biggest problem you see with Madden? Sheesh, I couldn't give a crap about hair (and that probably is not becausse I am balding, but who knows!). Ratings that matter, better interaction OL v. DL and WR v. CB, etc are all real concerns. Hair? Really?

More long hairstyles that should be added in Madden 11 - Jeremy Shockey, Randy Moss, and DeAngelo Williams

Its not the most important thing. Nobody is saying that.

But it does add to the authentic feel of the game if the players actually LOOK like their real life counterparts.

They did it on PS2...absolutely no excuses here. Seriously..absolutely no excuses for having the hair look that bad. They look like friggin ponytails. And not having guys with the right skin color? Thats embarrassing.

"If its in the game...its in the game". Ummm, yeah...

How about adding tattoos? The Show does it. NBA2K does it. But Madden? Nooope.

I tell you right now with one thousand percent honesty that I would gladly go back to PS2 graphics if they fixed the game play and player movements were as smooth as they were on legacy gen!!!

Dude...reread that. You'd be willing to cope with pS2 graphics if the gameplay was up to PS2 standards...sounds like you should just play PS2 lol. I know that's what I plan on doing come fall.

Please, get this through your head: EA has several different teams of people that work on different aspects of Madden. Some work on gameplay, some work on franchise (haha...), and some work on art and presentation. Having the art guys add realistic hair does not inhibit the gameplay people from improving OL/DL interaction.

Matter of fact, it does. Details are very important to the game and there are a lot of people who want it as close as possible to what they see in real life.
