while blocked feild goals/ xp's are a welcome addition....seems to be happening a little too much...maybe its a demo thing

This madden will prob be the best but it is lacking something. I dont know why but madden just isn't fun for me anymore....The feel of next gen just still isn'2t right in player movement and control. You still feel like you are skating on ice and as a DB user you have no control.

Could you imagine doing the DB drill with this next gen feel? They need more animations to the swat button.

This needs to be fixed asap.

See this is what I worry about with people posting impressions about the game being too easy or broken. I have a sense that a lot of you are just those "exploiting" players. Of course you will get 10 sacks a game if you are cheating the game. I got sacks but most if not all were with blitzes.

So I take all these unrealistic situations with a grain of salt. I play sim ball and I have had great hard fought games with the CPU on All-Pro every time. Everything was realistic and I have been a Madden ***** this entire generation.

When the CPU QB ran the ball it was because everyone was in coverage. And the speed was fine to me. I tried to run with Cutler and he was slow as hell. So again I'm enjoying the game which is a shocker for me.

The biggest negative so far for me is the CPU quick snapping.. That has to be patched or changed prior to launch. That is the most annoying thing in the world. I can understand punks online doing it because they suck at football but there is no reason for the CPU to quick snap. It would also give the game a more realistic feel to watch the CPU QB take his time to look over the defense before snapping the ball.

Does anyone know who the new team is behind this years game?

Funny thing was I played 2 games, one as GB and one as CHI.

With CHI I lost 17-10, and with GB I won 17-10.

Yay for consistency?

I liked it!

It will be a day 1 purchase for me.

HUM run game seemed a little easy... and kickoffs always get to the other end zone for tb... but thats all stuff that can be fixed with custom sliders which I always use anyways.

The new kickoff and FG meter looks a little 1990's arcadish, but that is nothing that would affect game play.

I like the new menu look as well.

All in all Im excited

Especially they FINALLY fixed the IR... praise the Lord!!!!!!!!!

I might not be used to madden after not buying 11, but man it seemed like everytime I dropped back with Cutler there was pressure from Matthews and one of their lineman. In a game I played last night Matthews had 6 sacks.

Visually this game looks great, I like some of what I am seeing, I already had planned to pick the game up. Listening to the OS radio show, I hope that the guys were right and this is a demo build that was farther behind than the E3 build, because I liked the things that they said were in the E3 build. I'm looking forward to this game once again. Haven't really felt that way since Madden NFL 10 which I thoroughly enjoyed.

It's too easy to run with the QB and when I was playing the bears blocked a field goal and started running it back. I tried to catch them but when i pushed the left stick towards the runner my player ran the opposite way...really confusing.
