Yeah, that's what I was thinking in regard to the other guys having played the game with the Infinity engine but you didn't, right?

I could have sworn some other guys that went back said the same thing about DPI calls working too. Would love to get a clarification on how high the slider was turned up, if at all at the last CE and now at E3.

I wonder when is the demo for Madden '13? I'm really becoming more interested.

Not till mid-August, another 6 to 7 weeks.

Exactly...I haven't experienced the Infinity Engine. Take what I say with a grain of salt.

That said, it's more than just physics that play into the lack of PI. It has to be AI/logic involved too. The AI has to recognize that they're out of position on a certain play, and/or have logic that tells them to make contact before the ball gets there. I don't think we're there yet.

I can be proven wrong, but I'd be highly surprised if PI's trigger without user intervention.

AHHHHHH Man no DPI/OPI or double- team pass blocking? MMMMMMMM....I hope they can make up for this in other areas, because it's going too be a hard sale for me now.

Does NCAA 13 demo coming out today maybe signify that Madden's will come out a lot earlier?

The Infinity Engine has the potential for some epic touchdown/pylon dives a la Reggie Bush.
