This and a choice between starting an FBS or FCS dynasty would be nice.

Instead of buying more pipeline states. Let me buy something extra that exactly make the damn game better. I would pay another 25-30 bucks for this!

Absolutely. That option would increase re-playability tenfold.

Wow, I don't know what to think of it, granted I only played one game so far. It definitely has a different feel to it. Part of me says I have less control over the player I am controlling and part of me feels it is actually decent. The graphics and the colors make it look more cartoon like to me which I am not crazy about at all, almost like it didn't look like the gameplay vids I had seen so far.

I need to play a few more games. I am almost speechless and don't know what to say, so I won't for now since it wouldn't be fair to praise or criticize it too much at this point.

payed for the game in full today as well as Madden. I'm pumped for it to come out already. Still hate the camera with a passion but nothing i can do about it.

The Graphics will be fine, actually will be better than 09 which I thought was fine. Yhe DEMO is in beta format, the final product will be fine

sounds good bandolero, feeling very good about this game, VERY GOOD!

But when it comes to some on the field things, the similarities are not nearly as much. Pursuit angle seriously change a ton, cause I've had a lot of my 10, 20 yard gains that would have been TDs last year. That is huge to me. I can't just manipulate the CPU into overplaying a punt return and getting an easy TD return. When I throw deep, more than half the time I completely overshoot the guy, which is a contrast. I can throw when I'm hit, whether it's smart or not. The CPU will actually miss a guy every once in a while, which is nice considering these are two of the best QBs in the game, so if these guys are doing it, it bodes well for the rest of the QBs out there. The only real SERIOUS issue (to me) that I see is the fact that pass rush is average at best, and the run game can be a little hit or miss. But even that has been an improvement IMO. I think one of the things about the pass rush though, is that the QB will sometime throw the ball so quickly from the snap, as though he can sense you'll get a rush and gets rid of it before it can even come close to getting there. This could be an issue, I'd have to play more than a 2 minute quarter to know if there's more factors involved though. Oh yeah, and the running animations and physics are a little helter skelter. That's something that really needs to be looked at a lil bit. The problem with this game is if you plug it in expecting a completely different experience, you'll be disappointed. The more I've played the demo though, the more I like the game actually cause more of the changes come out. One game won't show you the improvements that's been made, and that kinda sucks IMO. I would like to think they'd strive for a little more than subtle changes, but the game definitely improved. Now, let's get a presentation, dynasty, and physics retooling for 11 and they'll be really getting somewhere.

Drocks, good post and I agree with you. I think people will see just how different this game really is when the finished product is before us. 120 teams instead of 2 to help evaluate. Remember, this is just a demo, put out to find what problems are in it, they will resolve those problems, and I think people will feel better when they start playing wjith their teams they are used to playing with. Thats when you will see the difference. I can feel and see the difference already. I don't play much with either of those teams, nothing against them, just don't use them that much. I see such a big difference in the game, been playing these games for a very long time now, and I have to say, if people are not going to buy this game because of the demo, they will be missing out on something very special. Would not surprise me one bit if NCAA is not a better game then madden 10 this year. Would not surprise me one bit, and I play both of them.
