I would say the arcade mode will more interesting than the normal mode.

Really? I need to check this out. I literally never once played the game in arcade mode.

Can someone confirm there are no ages on any players?

I'm on the PS3, so no demo. Quick question. Has the camera made anyone seasick? I can't play 1st person games due to nausea, and even some 3rd person games make me a little quezy. I'm hoping the BB camera doesn't have this affect.

It was mentioned early in the thread, yeah. My wife can't watch me play for the same reason.

Not to say the game is bad but I'm having an awful time here.

I don't understand how the passing works? I'm just supposed to press up for a normal pass and down then up for a lob pass,I get that part but how do I aim/lead a reciver? The ball just seems to be going in random places.

Also is there some sort of defensive player lock? It keeps defaulting me back to the same outside LB. I haven't had time to switch a few times.

How do I call a fair catch on punts?

To lead or aim a receiver you have to press in the direction you want to lead after pressing up on the stick. So for instance if you want to lead a receiver in front of him to the right, push the stick up and then move it to the right immediately after. At least I think that is how it works.

At the play call screen on defense there is an option to lock on to the player you want. Forgot what button it is though.

I think you press Y to fair catch punts, could be mistaken though. It is one of the face buttons.

Note that all the leading and stuff can only be done in pro, not arcade mode.
