Yea I was thinking along the same lines. In pic #1 look at #25 in the far background. Don't recall any All-Pro's outside of kickers that have that physique.

Oh and the first video is coming (from 2ksports)

Exclusive APF Video

Will debut on Game Head on SpikeTV Friday Night at 1 am. You can check out the countdown to the video at http://www.gametrailers.com/ - http://www.gametrailers.com/

--------------------------

Kind of sad that your debut is on Spike freaking TV at 1:00 in the morning.

I'd be interested in seeing how it looks in motion. As I said before, the football I'm looking forward to the most is NCAA 08.

It always amazes me at the people who pick these screens out.

Do you want to show off the poor AA in your game and something that looks like it is a screen from Dead Rising 2?

Well we have been waiting three years for this.

4 hours to go. Video is to be on Spike Tv at 1:00 Eastern and the trailer will be up at gametrailers at 1:30...

The images have been a little underwhelming but something tells me that they have been holding back and we will see something special tonight (at least in the animation dept).

I have to admit that this picture was pretty cool. Gotta love the stadiums that come alive when you score.

http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=850996865136449832&hl=en - Here is the video (poor quality version on google) ...

Hopefully gametrailers has a HD version coming up. It would have been nice to see some actual gameplay footage instead of replays. Kind of hard to give an impression on what I just saw because of that.

I realize that the video quality is not that good, but after watching the Madden gang-tackling video you posted, the APF players seem kinda robotic.

I never thought I'd say this but I think Madden 08 looks much more realistic. The APF players have a "cartoony" look in that video.
