Is the Invisble players just on PS3? Or is it alson the 360?

Honestly, if you leave the house rules at default, you'll get some ugly gameplay. The speed is pretty fast(not too bad). But if you want realistic and fun gameplay, I would recommend putting the speed to slow(not very slow) and the threshold to 0. The speed being on slow for 1. Looks better animation wise 2. Has the players feet/legs move at the same speed but the don't run the 100 in 7-8 seconds. The threshold being at 0 is waaaaay better than at 50 because now, you can take advantage of certain matchups and slow lineman or any slow player can't keep up with a faster player. 3. The animations look so much better on slow. It looks like football. Also there aren't many(if any) speed bursts on slow.

I don't understand how so many years and they still can't get penalties correct? I've played ten games on the demo and noticed 3 calls in 10 games smh...

My entire team except Flacco and two people were invisible for a whole trip down the field.I had to throw to shadows.The camera is screwed up on replays. (Suggs got a sack and the camera zoomed in on his *** as he celebrated.Other times the player being replayed isn't followed properly.)
Outside of that I have no complaints.

I honestly don't see how people can like the NCAA game play more than the game play of the demo. This is the most fun I've had with a football game, in a long time... AND it's a demo! We should have had this years ago and be more progressed by now, for sure, but this demo is a great kickoff into next gen!

PS3 menus/playcalling frustratingly laggy. I don't get it. Smoothness would make it a completely different game. My blood pressure goes up dealing with this crap.

Bought it for the Sunday Ticket deal anyway

SEC- That is my point. I have traded Madden in the last 5 years, but the demo is where this game should have been in 09. That being said. I think Madden is a keeper for me because I can control every team.. I know a few people with early copies who have said out of the box this is a pretty good Madden and some of these people are 2k guys who would bash this game in a second.

Gotta be related to online play. EA didn't want to slow the game down I guess. But it should be a seperate setting for offline.

Oh well. Let me repeat the new tag line: "maybe next gen".
