Madden NFL 11 Demo Roundtable

[buzzguy]

A bit of a disappointment from this write-up. At least I have FIFA and NHL to look forward to this year.
All the dealings going on in the NBA right now have turned me off to basketball a fair bit, so I might pass on that sport genre this year, too.

Meh...about what I expected unfortunately. So their big features this year are A) Gameflow (which I won't use) and B) New commentary booth...which, from what I've heard, seems average at best. Kind of makes me wonder what everyone else has been doing...working on '12?

I think Ian's creativity was stifled on '11 which is pretty sad. NHL innovates year after year, it's a shame Madden can't. I'll save my $66 this year, thanks.

This demo writeup is discouraging, but again, it's a demo and not the finished product.

As always, either rent the game and decide for yourself or take the $60 leap of faith.

I'll be leaping...

yeah even if they was working on madden 12, 11 is hitting shelves nothing innovative.

Those are some pretty sharp criticisms of the game.

So far the game is to quiet. I wish crowd would be more into the game.

Did we seriously need a discussion about what the "haters" and "fans" would think? The tone of the discussion made me not really care what these guys thought of the game.
