Madden NFL 10 Patch #2 Available, Impressions Here (360)

[Guffers]

I've played about 8 games post patch and have seen 4 replays after TD's. I would much rather they played after every score, be it a 3 yard run or a 70 yard bomb. Maybe next year.

It is a solid game now though, I can see Madden 11 and 12 being incredible.

I don't know if it's me but I'm getting more chain gang cut scenes and it seems to be at times where they shouldn't be, like on plays where I'm clearly 2-3 yards past the 1st down line and they bring the chain gang out and measure and according to the chain gang I just made it by an inch. When I saw this the 1st time I'm like OK bad ball spot but it happened 2 more times in the same game.

Game speed matchs the setting better IMO, but the RB's are supermen now. Stewart and Williams (CAR) combine for 400 yds with 5 TDs for me against GB. Prior to the patch I never had that kind of insane numbers. Looks like I need to work on some slidders.

I can't get a game in now. 5 lockups when I tried playing today. Screen just locks up and have to reset the 360. NEVER had this problem before and I've played a few games post patch. Have no idea why it's locking up today.

Uninstalled-Installed...seems ok now..no lockups

Thanks to this play I would up winning the game. You be the judge. Is THIS a touchdown? Madden 10 post-patch 2 says NO. EA Sports: Madden NFL 10 Video Highlight

his knee was down but the ball clearly crosses the endzone line. why can't EA just admit they're clueless about football and move on?

I had a game last night where I was down 30-29 after scoring a TD and I could have kicked an extra point to tie the game with 2:10 left in the game. Instead since it isn't real life, and its Madden, I was confident in a play I could use to score a 2 point conversion.
I clearly got the 2 point conversion, but they stated my WR was out of bounds (not even close during the play and watching replay). I was not even able to challenge this, so I ended up losing. It really ticked me off since it was a real game in my Franchise, so I couldn't save it and will now have to replay the game.
I guess maybe that is what I get for not playing realistically.
Anyone see this before the patch? (It probably was there, but I never saw it before).

I had a play today where the RB was tackled 3 FULL YARDS past the first down marker.....The freaking chain gang comes in to measure lol! Well they measure and say I was short.... I was pretty ticked BUT after that cut scene it said first and 10...
So I calmed down.
Obviously a problem in the chain gang programming. I also have not seen a decline in the chain gang uses and in fact believe I've seen more since the patch.

It's a blown call by the ref. What? You never seen one of those before?
