Very kewl. I hope they don't go with the 8-bit look though and do some nicer graphics/models from the same viewpoint.

Never understood why Madden/2K games didn't have a Tecmo Bowl stylish mode (arcade mode).

So, they talk about it being "not far off". Does that mean like this spring not far off or this year not far off... or??

My guess is we'll see it by the time football season starts. Considering the ESRB has placed a rating on it we should see it this year.

Man I can't wait, I hope they keep the players looking rounded and all like the arcade and just make better textures for everything, that will be awesome!!
