Madden NFL 13 Demo Available Now, Post Your Impressions Here (360, PS3)

Finding my sweet spot with the demo. I put the threshold at 100, and I thought the game felt immensely better. It was certainly less jittery with that threshold and a slow setting.

I like he video it seems that the ball carrier always go backwards,or is it just me?

Post play guys just falling all over the place like they forgot how to use their legs I can over look the Other quirks of the engine but these are killing immersion and realism for me.

I was harsh yesterday on the tackling in the demo, I've let up a bit after seeing some retail videos posted.

This is the most fun I have had with Madden than I have had in while. My last Madden purchase was 2009 and I barely played it. This year seems different, it seems way more fun than previous versions. While the IE is not perfect, I expected it to have its quirks. Backbreaker prepared me for it. IE barely made into this years version and they will work out some of the kinks over the next few versions. Its a step in the right direction and glad they are taking it. Cant wait to see this in NCAA next year.

Is there anyway to get the camera to move behind the defense when on defense? Also the camera is just so far away in general its hard to appreciate the graphics. Dont like the running animations but the tackles are great and the atmosphere is really good. Crowd and stadium could look better compared to another football game that fizzled.

Told you it would be more controlled . You and I are often on the same page. I would've cried if the physics were like the demo back in June. Not that it would've changed anything, but you get my point.

My focus right now are sig animations (surprise) and the late game playcalling. If those things are satisfactory in the retail, barring any other issues, I'll be good.

With guys saying the playcalling in NCAA was just as shoddy, I'm hoping Madden got out in front of it with their day 1 patch.

How does the game feel better with speed threshold at 100?
