    Vid Clips overview:

    PROS:
    -pup-ups are actually really nice
    -stat banners last a little bit longer now
    -a lot more information available
    -announcers comment on number of carries, catches and completions
    -cpu run D looks vastly improved (up to the 59 yard TD rush by Lacy)
    -crowd seems a lot more animated
    -some good animations between opposing team players


    CONS:
    -Robo QB accuracy
    -WR still runs out of bounds
    -ZERO cpu run game
    -terrible cpu return game
    -commentary is frequently wrong... 1st play of the drive "this is the 8th play of the drive"
    -only one penalty in 3 quarters (Holding)
    -the Bears head coach... what a horrible animation!!! Awful!!! (shoulders, body, etc.)

    Sidenotes:
    -coaches are now holding Gatorade cups
    -still no notification of an onside kick upcoming
    -game looks faster than last year... I prefer slower speeds.

    Great catch animation here. Also, Miami is wearing the throwbacks they will wear later in the season. Nice!

    Well, I watched all of this guys clips/footage tonight. I will say that I am surprised how "good" the new WR/DB animations look and play out. They really look fantastic! EA should NOT be taking these videos down. This is the type of publicity they need since their advertising campaign this year was awful!

    I love the Dolphins throwbacks. Should be permanent!

    Yeah they look great. The teal and red just pop perfectly. I suspect within a few seasons they will move back to those unis. The new ones have no character and I am not a fan of the logo.

    That was beautiful!

    I've seen quite a bit of the WR/DB interactions through videos from E3 and ones recently and still have seen a lot of variety so far.

    That was nice Jaymo.

    Side note the player models look smaller and better to me than they are on Madden 15. Like that

    There is more variety too. First seeing that breakup

    They are definitely improved.

    The player models are much better as well.

    Liking what I am seeing. Had a situation earlier where I could have had first down easily on a drag route. Except the WR is unable to catch in transition like they should. So a 9-10 yard gain was a tackle immediately by a DL. Didn't even have a chance to turn up field.

    Look forward to these type of improvements. Really on the different catches and WR/DB stuff I am good

    Scary thought...

    I just watched a guy play Madden 16 CFM on ALL MADDEN. Using Tim Tebow as his starting QB he crushed the Steelers 27-14 (granted it was on fantasy draft). Robo QB and AGRESSIVE CATCH all game long! Tebow had over 350 yards passing and 3 TD tosses.

    The twitch feed left me nervous about Madden 16... again. I was feeling really good after those videos yesterday but didn't see any of that tonight.

    I think accuracy is simply tuned too high on default. I always had my sliders no more than 10, even on all madden I believe. That can be fixed. I'm more worried about seeing separation between the CPU qbs. I want to see a much bigger difference than in the past. They all played the same with the same awareness other than scrambling.

    I love how contested balls are up for grabs. In the past the DB knocked those down or picked them off every time.

    Thankfully none of that stuff matters for me

    Definitely like what I see in terms of Gameplay and the interactions

    Have to admit, these videos are starting to make me consider a PS4 and Madden. Only just, but ...

    With my EA ACCESS I will play the hell out of this game on the 20th/21st and provide a full summary. Let me know if you want me to look at anything specifically.
