Posted on November 17, 2010 at 05:02 PM.
Week 1 - Overall Team Power Rankings
ELITE
1.Cowboys- From top to bottom, this team has all the weapons. Romo can move just enough, they have a dual headed monster and tons of different WR types.
On Defense - They have tremendous speed in the secondary and the ability to exchange pieces and play any style.

2.Vikings -Almost took the top spot with Moss, but still have a Top Back, Fast QB, Old QB, Array of fast and tall WR’s. Best DL in the game makes up for back 7. ... Read More

Beating Tough D In Madden
Posted on October 19, 2010 at 09:26 AM.
Here is a great write up by forum member JDub15! He gives us some great advice about how to fight and claw when playing a really tough opponent on defense. Sgibs played a tough match on TWIM 22 and was able to eek out a 6-3 win with some of these tactics as well!
Thanks Jdub, now check it out!


1) Don't abandon the run, 99% of madden players abandon the run way too early even when it is effective. Stick with the running game, defense is 100x easier when you know for sure ... Read More

Moss To Vikings Madden Effect
Posted on October 6, 2010 at 01:27 PM.
Ahh, time to speculate!

Does this make the Vikings the best team in Madden 11? How about of all-time?


We have talked about how the Patriots were the greatest team in all of Madden history during Madden 08.
Now that Moss is officially on the Vikings, does this make them the greatest offense in Madden history?
How do the 08 Pats and 11 Vikings Matchup?

QB – Brady vs Favre and TJack
Brady in 08 was fierce, he had great THP and ACC, ... Read More

Madden 11 Patch, Sweet!
Posted on September 23, 2010 at 09:55 AM.
Hi, my name is ZFarls and I am addicted to the blitz. The problem for me so far in Madden 11 is that when I play Cover 0 (No safety help) and force a short throw, the RB can often break one tackle and be off to the races. While, the O can't beat me deep, due to my blitz pressure, short throws on long downs like 3rd and 17 are often picked up due to 1 tackle being busted.
Look, I understand that broken tackles do happen and especially against top backs in the league (CJ, AP) but if Darren ... Read More

Madden 11 Passing Concepts
Posted on September 8, 2010 at 11:03 AM.
Here are 5 Things I look for in a good base passing play!

Here is what I expect out of my passing plays.


-A quick read that must be defended against


-A route that consistently beats man


-The option to add protection based on defensive look


- A route that gets to the 1st down marker


-A late outlet or flat route as a safety valve


Ex. Madden 10 Post Corners! ... Read More

Madden 11 Real Talk!
Posted on August 19, 2010 at 03:16 PM.
What are we loving about Madden 11? What could use some work?


While the general gameplay and overall feel of the game is solid, here is where the game could be better…


-Gus Johnson adds excitement and a new sound to the game which is great right from the start.


-Can’t say I love all the advertisments in the game though. I actually wont buy or eat doritos because I just don’t like being bombarded after paying 60 bucks for the game. I ... Read More

Madden 11 Demo - Strategy Pad
Posted on July 28, 2010 at 10:32 AM.
Clearly thats the idea which is DOMINATING talk right now. If something isn't broken then why fix it? Here are a few more thoughts from my 3 games with the Xbox demo so far...

-Strategy Pad, hmm, lets not jump to conclusions…I HATE IT. Not because it doesn’t work, but almost because they changed it for no reason. Ex. Slide the line used to be trigger then direction. Now you have to hit left, down, left. They added an extra button in for no reason. Now I understand that once we adapt ... Read More

-Big time RB in Ladanian Tomlinson


-Monster threat at TE in Antonio Gates


-Great Offensive and Strong Defensive Line


- Fast Linebackers and a dynamic user player in Antonio Cromartie

The Top 7 Feel Aspects of EA Sports Games

There are moments in video games that make you get up off the couch and do a little Tiger Woods fist pump. These are the reasons we play the games and they give us that rush that we couldn't pull off in real life.
Over the last generation, EA has made there controls more intuitive and allowed the user to feel as if they were actually controlling a specific part of the player. This has come along way from button pressing and will ... Read More
