Madden 09 Demo Released, Impressions Here

This is hands down going to be the best Madden. The graphics are cooookie crisp, definitley the best I've seen in any sports game. The only thing bothering me is all the dropped passes.

Do you have to have Xbox Live Gold to download the 360 demo or is Xbox Live Silver enough?

Is there a waiting period if you have only Silver (I only have Silver right now)? I have to change some Network settings to get my Xbox 360 online right now. I don't want to do it if it is not available for Silver members yet. Thanks.

I have given this demo about an hour.

I must say, I never in my life have been this pumped to get a video game. This game is beyond beautiful. I would've liked a full 2 min quarters demo, but I guess it's only 12 more days to wait.

I really don't know what there is to complain about.

I'm disappointed with the demo. Not with the quality of the game, but I was hoping for a demo more similar to NCAA. This isn't just to complain, but I mean come on we barely get any feel for the game at all. For someone on the fence about getting the game this doesn't help.

NCAA was at least a shortened game letting you try running/passing/defense/etc. With this you don't really get to run the ball if you're trying to win the demo. The Madden IQ was cool I just wish we could see more.

lol rocket catch was one thing. but it seems like the WR's dont jump at all now. no attempt to catch the ball at it highest peak. hell i threw a fade route to plax he just stood there stuck to ground.

maybe i just need more time
