re: Madden NFL 13 Demo Available Now, Post Your Impressions Here *(PS3 Vers. Online)*

I was dissapointed in Madden NFL 12 (mainly since it didn't really feel like a 2011 sports game in comparison to other sports games released during the same year) but I'm impressed with Madden NFL 13. The game's infinity engine feels very good during running plays and tackles. Brings new life to running plays as well as playing on defense. Passing game feels basically the same but I haven't noticed defenders jumping up out of nowhere to bring down passes.

Graphics have seemed to take a bit of a hit though the game doesn't look bad. It just looks average/kind of dull during gameplay (the game looks good in replays though, especially with the new motion blur).

While it's not saying much (since the commentary in Madden 12 was absolutely horrible) the commentary has improved. Sounds more natural and there's no long pauses.

I like the new on screen graphics and transitions as well.

Overall, the game (based on the demo) is a really good improvement and brings new life into the series. Unfortunately though, it does it really late into this gen at a point in which the gen is about to end.

How did you get the infield dirt? Every video I does not have it

It's a demo. He'll be added into the actual game pretty quickly I'd imagine.

I'm confused, not the 1st game I played today.
I took 11 off and enjoyed 12. This year the demo (so far) is leading me away from 13. I may skip it and get involved with another sports game. It's just not pulling me in.

Well, this is kinda cool. If you run into your lineman they WILL knock you down. I'm not talking about the mario running (which is still there) but if you run into them from the side? Yeah, they are gonna knock you back on your butt. Which is kinda cool

I think it's better than 12 was.

However, I think tackling took a step back because there is some terrible things that happen about 50% or more of the time.

Also, its time for a custom cam. Its very subjective, but for me this cam so far away kills the game. 2k5, and Madden 10 had the perfect standard cams. You could see the entire field(even flats, screens,etc), yet were much closer. Maddens cam doesn't zoom in and out correctly post snap. Just stays zoomed out far. Pre snap is WAY to close.

I know some people don't care about cams, but it's a big one for me. Hard to see anything from so far away,

Interesting, 12 I shelved pretty early, earlier than some other versions.
