Horrible AI, RC, Stiff running animations, Oline is overpowering, Serious oline Suction, the QB has has all day to throw??! So the DEV's try to make the oline/dline look pretty by having them create a pocket, but forget about having the Dline disengage blocks?? All these things are serious issues, and they still exist. Wow.. Makes you wonder about the madden dev's..

So rookie and pro level which is out there for the football challenged should be hard core sim...

Give me a break...

The lower levels are suppose to provide and easy time for noobs

Stop acting like rookie level should be all complex

I don't know if it is fair to say that RC is totally in the game based on a Larry Fitzgerald-like catch made by Larry Fitzgerald. He makes catches like that in real life. Now, if it was someone like Orlando Pace rocket catching in Madden 10 I'd be worried.

What the hell do you expect EA's developers to do about that?

This is the unfortunate by-product of video games. Stuff like this is impossible to prevent on a video game. No matter what EA does, people will always be able to do this if they practice at it.

I'm not ragging on you or anything, but why? If you just wanna watch some football why not old tapes of real games or something? Just curious.

Okay, I just got a chance to actually play the demo, and WHOA. Talk about different. The view, the speed, the graphics. I felt like I was re-learning the game. It took me a bit to get my bearings.

That being said, I'm pretty happy with the game. Sure, some glitches I saw, but I also know that this is an old build. But I loved the passing, I loved the running, everything felt very good. It's going to take me some time to re-adjust to the look and feel of everything, but I'm as pleased as pie.

I don't get how anyone can say this looks or feels like '09. There's just no way.

In case your question hasn't been answered yet...(360)

Once you download both demos hit the "X" button in the center of your controller then scroll left to "Games" then go to "Game Library" that will bring up sub menus go to where it says "Downloaded Demos/trials and you should see one that says Madden 2010 demo, and the other should say Madden 2010 (Exclusive Demo)

The five minute exclusive demo lets you play through to a second overtime period. I also like the speed on the five minute demo a lot better - it seems slower.

What the hell are you talking about right of the customer??? Its in the dev's best interest to release a good demo if they intend to release a demo. Its the right of the customer to expect a good effort from the developer, be it a demo or full game.

But whatever, i think the reason for the 1 min qtr demo was due to the fact that there was a 5 min qtr demo planned, you just had to preorder to get it. Like i said, my mind was already made up, but i can easily understand why some ppl are a tad irked.
