Jim Nantz and Phil Simms will form the announcing crew in Madden NFL 13. Gus Johnson and Cris Collinsworth called Madden 12 but it looks like they will be foced out this year. There has been a lot of talk about implementing a new commentary system from EA Sports’ FIFA game which should improve the relevancy of the announcing but there is still not too much information on that yet.
Are you excited about the new Madden 13 announcers or would you have prefered the old ones? Let us know your thoughts in the comments section below.
I’m definitely glad I won’t have to hear Collinsworth anymore. Simms is fine, Nantz is pretty darn good, though I never did have an issue with Johnson.
But it won’t matter if they don’t get more commentary. It gets annoying when after a couple weeks of playing the game you start hearing the same sound bites over and over and over again. Hopefully they’ll also get some other presentation stuff going this year, such as a more involved half-time show, or at least pre-game/post-game shows and something like Extra Point and/or the Tony Bruno Show from older editions (I really liked the radio show and newspaper stuff and miss it; I wish we could have all those and a new and improved Extra Point, it would make the experience so much better and lock up so many buyers and buy you more time to work on the game logic and physics itself).
hell yeah i hate gus and chris as announcer they make the game so boring gus johnson is a basketball guy nt football.
but all we is phil simms spot light like he has on sunday for game points.
