That animation is poor. Looks like they took page numbers off the playcall screen, gonna miss that. I also have a problem with man defense, posted this late last night, but cant find where i posted it now. Heres a repost.

Welcome to Madden where mind reading DBs and synchronized route running has long been the standard lol.

This fix has been a long time coming. Don't know if Tiburon is skilled enough to fix it though.

Played one game before bed last night and it took a bit to adjust to the game after NCAA.

I was quickly down 17-0 to the Cardinals and could NOT get a pass rush going on All Pro at first. Warner was picking me apart and my first pass was a pick as I adjusted to the slower ball physics.

I ended up winning 27-24 in OT

Running game is very good, as is fatigue. I tried getting into the endzone as the game was winding down in regulation to win but my hurry up offense had the 2nd string WRs on the field by the end of the drive and I had to settle for a FG as time expired.

Pro-Tak didn't show up as much as I would have liked, but I really didn't stick to the ground game due to the 5 min quarters and being behind 17-0 quickly.

I did like the one out route I threw, with Sweed matched up against a shorter DB...the DB had the inside so I threw it high and Sweed climbed the ladder to grab it over the DB's head after they both stopped at the sideline. It was a 5 yard gain and I threw it way to late, but it was cool none the less.

Presentation is top notch and needs to be brought over to NCAA.

this one is funny to. the defender is running exactly like the offensive. stride for stride and step for step....lol wow EA

pretend you are looking right at the ball coming towards you, and right before you catch it you turn your head left and catch the ball over your left shoulder.... the annimation makes no sense so I understand how you dont follow the txt , its kinda hard to explain... just keep playing you'll know exactly what im talking about after you play a little bit longer

Situation: Playing as Arizona, I'm down by 7 at their 35 yard line with 3 seconds to go. Pittsburgh decides to bring an all out blitz and I easily lob it to one of my 3 wide open WR's for the game tying TD.

Why are they sending 8 there?

just saw this catch in the giants vs. cowboys demo. so maybe the over the shoulder catch doesnt occur as much in the retail version since this demo seems like the newer version

I've only played one game so far, but there were a lot of things that kept me excited for the retail version. I, like everyone else, think the demo is way too slow, but think that it also makes it that much more realistic in terms of reading, reacting, and such. all in all i'm stoked for the new game and can't wait to get my copy
