Thanks for the help hatisback

Words don't do justice....Also hilarious commentary imo. Didn't expect such colorful language in that video lol.

Everything seems great and as advertised. The only thing I wish were different was the camera angle. When you hold LB to check your routes, I think that's the perfect angle.

Hopefully they send a patch down or something because I think we should have more options then ONE camera angle.

No. The demo will start downloading once you turn your xbox on.

edit >> I'm slow and didn't refresh once I reached the end of this *massive* thread <<

Game is tight. MAN is it tight. I'm only going to post my negatives because everything you've read so far about the positives is spot on. This game has a boatload of positives that I co-sign. A couple of things did make me go "awww man". I went for it on 4th and inches and clearly made it over the red line by at least a full yard yet I was told I didn't make it. Oh well. Second, the end of Q logic may need some work. Don't know why the cpu does some of the things they do at halftime. One time they hurried down the field only to get into FG position and just sit there and let the clock run down on them being down 7 nothing. I love the controls. The game plays VERY fast like, you know, NFL fast. Controls are great. The game just needs to be smoothed out a bit but that will come with time. Not very much worried about the AI as most of the time I'll be online with the game. Like people have already said when the blitz comes, IT COMES! But not some Madden nano-blitz. ALTHOUGH I have seen some of my linemen get beat and just stand there like if they let the dude by and not be in the picture when I get sacked maybe nobody will know it's their fault.

I am extremely happy with this game, I will buy this game no doubt, I am DONE with the Madden series, the Graphics on this game looks way better then it does on the videos I been watching on youtube

all we will need is for someone to create real NFL Teams and Rosters and upload and share them and MADDEN IS DONE!

EA SPORTS been robbing people since they got the exclusive deal with the NFL...ENOUGH IS ENOUGH! If sales drop dramatically then it is no way the NFL will even consider renewing its exclusive license with the EA and that means Backbreaker will be able add the NFL License to this AMAZING game

but so far playing the demo, this game is so good I don't even care about License right now

Wow. To read all this positive feedback, as a gamer, a football gamer, is great. I dont have a 360 but can only hope the PS3 version has similar feedback.

THOUGH IT DOESN'T HAVE THE NFL LICENSE, THIS GAME NEEDS TO BE GREAT TO FINALLY CHALLENGE MADDEN. IM KEEPING MY FINGERS CROSSED

I'm actually trying buttons right now and won a game 10-0.

I broke a 22 yard run too that was awesome...I started with a juke to make a guy miss and when I saw someone closing on my left side I dove and he dive-tackled me below the waist making my legs spin out of bounds - was awesome.

Another play I did a dead stop and made a guy fly by looking silly, but little did I know his buddy was making a b-line for me and absolutely blew me up pushing me right back so that my helmet filled most of the screen. Like a helmet in my living room lol.

I found that I wish I could map the controller with a hybrid or have both activated...buttons are great for quickly cycling receivers. I have yet to complete a great pass...only west coast style is working for me.

I'm going to play on hard now against the best team.
