Remarkably, Madden NFL 12 will yono all app depict players suffering concussions, according to the president of the NFL Players’ Association, but apparently in a manner that reinforces the seriousness of the injury and the message that playing through one is not a good idea.(new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=995c4c7d-194f-4077-b0a0-7ad466eb737c&cid=872d12ce-453b-4870-845f-955919887e1b'; cnx.cmd.push(function() { cnx({ playerId: "995c4c7d-194f-4077-b0a0-7ad466eb737c" }).render("79703296e5134c75a2db6e1b64762017"); }); In a tweet first reported on by Gamasutra, George Atallah, a senior official with the NFLPA, praised EA Sports for the injury’s inclusion. “Good for EA Sports.

Concussions won’t be one, reinforcing the message, yono all app especially to younger players, that it w69 slot is a serious injury and not a time to be a hero playing through it. The NFL instituted rules in 2009 that prevent players from re-entering a game if they’ve suffered a concussion, responding to a mounting controversy over the long-term effects of repeated concussions and the league’s posture toward player safety. Big-hitting action has been a touchy subject in NFL-licensed video games, especially since 2006 when Midway walked away from its NFL Blitz license after the league became concerned about the over-the-top hitting presented in the game.
