I've let it go. It's the earlier posters that havent.

DB's have the daunting task of keeping with receivers at all times, without knowing the route .. these guys are incredibly agile and can react on a dime ..

There was nothing 'super' about it ..

To be honest, I agree more with the staff that was on the negative side of the demo.

I can't figure out what it is, but something is just...off. I don't know if it's the game speed (and yes I've lowered it), the camera, or what, but I'm just not really enjoying the demo that much. The messed up thing is this is leaps ahead of Madden 11, but I actually kinda enjoyed the Madden 11 demo.

On the bright side, EA football demos have almost never been that good of a barometer for the retail version, or at least that I can remember. But as of now, I'd rather rent the game on release day or just wait and see.

It's ok little guy, denial is the toughest stage, and you'll work through it eventually. But sooner or later you're going to have to accept the fact that EA is incapable of making a better football game than the one 2K made 8 years ago with last gen technology. It's kind of pitiful if you ask me...

You created this account to come in and troll? Well done sir, I hope your stay here is a short one. I hate trolls!

Since when has your opinion been universally regarded as the truth?

You must have this site confused with IGN. The game wars are over. Move on.

So you think the on-field gameplay in Madden 12 will (finally) surpass that other game?
