Madden NFL 10 Demo Available, Post Impressions Here

[DorneyDave]

LoL, I love this thread. Yesterday...it was all love...today it's almost all hate.

I for one am enjoying the demo immensely. Then again, I don't cut to replay after every single play to find a broken animation. I just enjoy it.

I just played the Demo, and i was kinda of pleased. I think Ian and the boys did a good job so far. Now i can't stand EA's madden games, but this one has promise.

What i notice when playing the demo. I let the cpu vs cpu play each other so i can see the game play, but here is what i notice.

WHAT I LIKED
1. The pulling guards ran up field to make a block.

2. I also saw the guard pick up an outsider blitz, by steping back in the pocket to pick the player up.

3. I saw 2 defenders along with the WR jump for the ball.

4. I like that when the ball is wet the center has trouble getting the ball up to the QB when in shotgun.

5. There was a good running game. M. Barber had like a 20 yard run.

6. The crowd was into the game. (I think they need to amp it up alittle more.)

7. QB overthrew, and underthrew WR.

8. Some good tackling animations.

9. Pass rush was there. Needs alittle more, but romo was sacked atleast.

10. The speed of the game was GREAT.


WHAT I DIDN'T LIKE
1. The running animations. (Needs work for next year.)

2. The players look to shinny. I like the dull look that was in Madden 06. It had a more real grainy look.

3. I meantion the crowd needs alittle louder.


Ian, i think you guys are on the right track. Just build on from here. I hope the franchise is deep.

I understand that.

All I'm repeating is what Ian said. There was some fine tuning and tweaking done for 2-3 weeks after the demo was finished.

Fine tuning and tweaking.

2K having the opportunity to make a better NFL game is irrelevant at this point.
