What are you talking about? I can be critical and still want the game to be good. I didn't say it was bad, I said it was meh and I reserve judgement for the final build. The E3 comment is that I feel like it played like the videos I saw from E3. My expectations are high, I never said it played a bad game of football, I just said it was meh to me.

Calling me a "*****" what does that make you? Since I see you did a personal attack. I figure turnabout is fair play.

See to me, you are a boot licking, b!tch made dude, you have the emotions of a teenage girl. When you let post by grown men affect you in a way that you roll your eyes. B!tches do B!tch ish. Just because someone doesn't share your same opinion doesn't make them a *****. I'm critical for a reason, my complaints have always been about the tackling and running animations. I have never said madden sucked or the dev sucked.

Its a demo, its not the finished product, its an ok demo which got an ok response i.e. meh. And if you looked up my follow up response you would have seen that I said it was luke warm.

Now look at my history you don't have to scroll down much to see, I said the game looks great, but I'm a *****.

They added a bunch of cosmetic stuff like chain gangs and refs but the core of this game is still broken. Pro tak is extremely disappointing, suction blocking is running wild, and tron jogging pathetic.

My first impression are that I absolutely LOVE the game speed. This feels very much like APF 2K8 (im sure this was said a lot already) but it's a good thing.

In Madden 09, I was a very good player (184-83), but in M10, I can't win a game on all-madden to save my life. I played as the Cards and will do so until I beat Pit. Polamalu is a freaking ballhawk and I was throwing pick after pick, but those deserved to be pics. I like how hard it is to user catch/pick. This was a real challenge because you cant just throw the ball all the time. In order to have success, you need a balanced attack. Wildcat was very fun to use as well.

I am very impressed with the direction of the franchise. Kudos to the Madden team. This is a day one purchase for me. I took the Friday and Monday of as well lol!

If you want to throw long you have sit back in the pocket and pick your nose, and if the WR's get bumped or pressed you might as well forget it because you'll get sacked or hit which makes the ball fly like a wounded duck in random locations. And people are screaming for increased pass rush? I don't know - it seems like that will screw up the deep game completely if the DL can get to the passer in 3 seconds (at least in this slow mode thing.) And why wasn't this demo in normal speed? Oddball decision.

I doubt it's that slow. I'd try to confirm this myself but I'm at work currently. I remember playing the demo and it's slower than last year and NCAA but I didn't think it was that slow.

This game defys all logic of "Arcade Next-Gen Madden". This is the first X360 football game that TRULY deserves its NFL Licence. It is SIM and it is FUN. You sir, and your team.. Donny, Phil, Anim8tor.. You guys did an incredible job. I cannot say enough about how excited I am to get my hands on the final version. The menu screen SCREAMS no gimmicks. Have you ever fired up a game and knew it would be SICK just from the damn menu screen? Madden 10 does that The cut-scenes are incredible. From the players to watch, to the time-out QB cut scenes - I was sitting there with my jaws dropped. It is incredible. The post play is just icing on the cake.. it is AWESOME! (Is there anyway to make the players to watch screen a little longer with good insight from the commentary in Madden 11? - I know you guys are redoing the commentary next year as well as locomotion, I am STOKED about that!) The Gameplay is so much better than ANY of the Maddens i've played next gen. Though I am a huge critic of the generic run styles that plague Madden, the game feels so real and fine tuned its incredibly easy to bypass this issue all together. Seriously, it feels like a REAL GAME. The crowd OMG.... OMG.... OMG... *faints* - First football game im sure I can play w/o any commentary... I really cannot say enough about the crowd noise, you guys NAILED IT. Thank you man, seriously. Thank you!

You are spot on. I feel the same way. I think that this will be the Madden that officially returns me to the series.

I had to read your post twice to make sure it said what I thought it did.

Glad you're enjoying the demo man.
