Default vertical driveshaft motion

I got under my car today and i have a lot of vertical and rotational motion as well. It also seems to be making a decent bit of noise. The reason i was checking it is that when slowing down or coming to a stop i hear a loud clunkin noise through the bottom of the car near the shifter. It sounds like the transmission or something is hitting the tunnel. I was wondering if this could be related to the play in the driveshaft.

Is it wobbling on the rear end or the trans end? Could be worn out u joints, worn pinion bearings, yoke on the rear not tight (I had that problem when the car was new, had a bad vibration) worn out trans tailshaft bearing.
