Madden Producer Ian Cummings posted another blog on the Madden site today titled "Gameplay 101: What I learned from Madden '97".  In in he discusses some of the fun things about Madden '97 and even provides a video of some injury scenes complete with Summerall commentary.  Check it out HERE.

"4.  Talking (or yelling) back at John and Pat could be oddly satisfying. I wonder how many thousands of times I screamed back in agreement or disagreement with John and Pat once they started doing play by play. Remember the injury sound back then too (might have been Madden 96 SNES on that one…can’t recall for sure)? Wow it was sickening…like a chicken bone snapping. Then the classic line…Summerall’s “Oh, No. There’s a man down”. Waiting to see who it was…man that was a moment of true suspense in gaming far ahead of it’s time!"
