Next time you kickoff, as you're running down the field, go into aggressive mode and when you approach a blocker hit up on the right stick. LOL. I just leveled a guy.

Looks like the demo doesn't have local/splitscreen multiplayer, unless I'm missing something.

If you want a challenge play with either Charleston or Columbus (?). One of the two "average" teams. You'll see where ratings matter. I feel like some of my guys are being dominated physically. I just got my linebacker put on his *** coming in for the blitz. The CPU QB had all day to throw and dropped it in over the coverage for a 50-something yard gain.

After playing some more I think Hard is the way to go, CPU plays smarter and it feels fair. CPU doesn't feel overpowered on Hard at all.

Not sure if anybody saw this yet, but I just saw a couple of cut scenes in the game I just played where guys were jawing at each other.

That's one reason why I love this game. Makes you really feel like a QB under fire.

Im a football fanatic so this was always going to be a purchase for me. However now im much more excited.

If only EA and 505 would come together and combine the best parts of both games to give us the ultimate football game. Sadly this will never happen.

Anyways im excited about the game now, still hate the camera angle tho. Im sure ill get used to it over time.

Does playing on hard fix the roughing the punter 100% of the time thing (only played on easy and medium before I had to pack up my 360 to take rock band and instruments to work)?

Pretty fun, look forward to playing it more over the weekend and getting used to the controls some more. I'm not sure I've successfully fielded a punt/kickoff yet, lol.
