Real Announcers

While I love the strides made in watchability of the 3D engine, I think one of the biggest things that could be added is a real broadcast announcer(s) that reads off the play-by-play. Making it more broadcast-like in general would be a huge improvement I think. A good example of this being used really effectively is the MLB 2K series where they read the players' names and actually convey the excitement of the game.

I know they have the text-to-speech option, but its pretty raw and not at all like a real broadcast. This would improve the watching experience tenfold imo. At the very least, include an option for adding our own text-to-speech engine so we can create our own announcer experience.
