pretty sure either Ian or Phil said there were no more weapons. I'll double check and get back on that.

Great read! Thanks

Did you say that the Defensive Line moves are now on the Right stick? Or did I read that wrong?

I don't think it changed the gameplay one bit. If I had sat one of you down with '09 with the icons turned off, I don't think you would've been able to tell me that some feature like "weapons" had been added.

For me, I thought they were too "kiddie" and arcadish. If you know your team and know the players you don't need a truck underneath your RB, because you know he's a bulldozer.

Yup - its on the right stick.

Are people on the side lines actually reacting to what's going on now? When a player runs out of bounds, do they hit people, or just run through them?

Yeah good question, I know they can't make the sidelines dynamic like APF, but it would be nice to see those guys react somewhat appropriately to what is going on right in front of them.
