Re: IGN Hands-on preview (11/1)

Another picky thing by me, but please tell me that when the games done, EA is going to have gotten rid of the names being in YELLOW on the back of the steelers jersey. I remember in NFL Street 2 they had the names on the backs of the jerseys in just one specific generic font. No team specifics. This would be a step backwards from that. Maybe the only reason I notice these things is because I'm a dork, but it just really annoys me.

Anyway, some of the new additions sound pretty cool. I like the idea of the defensive scoring game and the playbook elimination. But I don't know about the bonus power-up crap. Jumping that high seems a little too ridiculous, even for this franchise. And what happened to the players wearing whatever clothes that were in the game that they wanted? They've still got their choice of pants, but now they all wear their jerseys. Wierd, considering they didn't even HAVE the jerseys in the first game. But, that too is pretty picky. Whatever, I'm probably going to buy this anyway.

EDIT: Watching the producer commentary video, I see the Steelers do have black lettering on their jerseys. Still the same as the last edition with no team specific font I believe, but it's better than the crap I saw on the pic.

Anyone know if Crush the Carrier and the other modes from last year are in this?
