This trailer shows off Pro-Tak, the new tackle physics engine for EA Sports Madden NFL 10. If you get stacked up at the goal line, donât expect to ricochet your way to paydirt.
Similarly, it doesnât mean itâs all over for the runner. Rather than animate a three- or four-man rodeo as a Quicktime event with an irrevocable outcome (usually falling somewhere near the point of contact) the game now gives you some control to manipulate the direction of the impending pileup.
Moreover, youâll sometimes âhave an offensive lineman hit you in the back and give you that first down.â Just so long as thatâs all nice and incidental, mâfriend. Otherwise, will this yearâs Madden include the rarely-ever called âhelping the runnerâ penalty?
