Went back and watched the interview (its from EGM if you really want to hear it, but its not really worth posting) and he never specifically says the late-hits have been taken out. That being said, no late hits are seen in the two or three minutes of gameplay they show either.

Yeah, busted ass NFL Street engine. In fact I fear what the pussy league will do with Blitz now with that in mind.

EA finally confirms the NFL forced them to take out the late hits and other after-the-whistle sneak attacks from the game.

WWE didn't have a problem with their wrestlers looking like roid freaks in All Stars. The NFL shouldn't care about late hits. :foc:

EA announces they are holding a public vote during this year's Spike TV's VGA show to determine who will be the cover athlete for the game.
Only 3 choices available between Roddy White, Ray Rice, and Patrick Willis. http://www.screwattack.com/news/nfl-...r-athlete-vgas |

Ray Rice won the contest for the digital cover star.

That's how I felt when I first heard the "no late hits" news. I didn't think it would be enough to alter the game and wasn't too worried about it. But after 2 demo games, it really is boring without late hits. Hard to believe such a small thing could alter the game but it does.

They also changed a few other things that doesn't seem big but also changed the game alot like actually going out of bounds without getting hit, lack of stuff to change in options (ex. quarter clock), and I think a ton of codes locked away.
Also seemed very weird to have a running back on the cover considering there really isn't any real rushing plays besides lateral passes which now force you out of bounds if tossed too quickly. |

The lack of late hits doesn't bother me. Like Jeff from GB, I kinda just want to get to the next play instead of late hitting dudes. But Blitz is one of my favorite games ever, and this is the best way for me to play it against people, with all of my college friends gone from town. |
