Jim Nantz and Phil Simms replace Gus Johnson and Chris Collinsworth.

Thank God. Gus Johnson's playcalls were so botched. Either they'd fuck up the intonation ("Cutler throwing DEEEEEEPP!!! Pass incomplete, resetting for 3rd down") or the play would be long since overwith and then a random "GOING FOR THE END ZONNNNNEEEE" would scream out. They pretty much recycled most of Colinsworth's commentary, which had already grown stale and annoying.

Madden 12 was the first Madden title where I've almost instantaneously turned off commentary and never turned it back up. The game itself was pretty shitty too.

I sold my 360 and have no intention of getting another Madden until next gen. Hopefully by then it won't quite be the same re-hashed shit year in, year out.

Awesome!

New announcers, a roster update....and, uh, yeah.

Another lame and total rehash of an already stale game.

I haven't bought a Madden game since 2005 and I don't plan on purchasing one for a very long time.

I felt so stupid after each subsequent purchase. They've had a couple "good" years, but otherwise I always feel ripped off 20 minutes after making my purchase.

Less Colinsworth in anything for me is good!
