If the demo was the actual final build I would have been thrilled. Can't wait to play the final build!!!!

You know 09 was bad when this DEMO puts it to shame. Seeing Polamalu's hair fly around is so cool.

Great job Tiburon and all of you guys here who's great ideas bettered the game.
The atmosphere feels very amped up. It may just be a matter of them having increased the default volume (?), but sometimes just doing something small like that can make a big difference like we see here.

I've only played the 1-minute demo, but it left me impressed.

Finally it feels like the series is headed back in the right direction

I'll prbly download the full demo on the 13th, just to make that last day before it comes out a bit easier.

Sounds like you might have a bad code. When did you first try to download it? How's your internet connection?

thats just bad physics. terrible physics. i dont care what anyone says. u cant justify potty train tackling. if marion got put on his rear then let it be, but if they want to portrayed that marion a beast then there are realistic ways to do so

Some people want every play to look a certain way and have a specific result and if it doesn't all go the way they expected it's not "realistic".

They will never be happy.

Big deal you saw one flawed mechanic on a 1 minute quarter DEMO. Don't buy it if you have such a big problem with it. Yes I have seen some flaws, but I have seen some amazing things as well.

the code seems to be ok because it is in my download list thing. but everytime i try to download it it wont work. my connection is good, it doesn't drop or anything. but i had the same problem downloading other demos in the past. and after a while it will eventually work. its just frustrating as hell

Must be some bad physics in this video of Marion running around in the end zone too.

1:39 mark where the law of physics should have been a safety in the end zone.

I am EXTREMELY impressed by this year's demo, I won't be renting this year but buying (yet again).

WOW, the xbl 1 min qtr demo is better than the entire CE game last year, even w/o the commentary.

This feels like NFL Football. Something that hasn't been captured since the old NFL2K days.

I just witnessed something else that was great. Boldin just made a sick jumping grab at the sideline and got hit in the air and managed to stomp both feet on the ground as he was going out of bounds. It was ruled a non-catch, but the officials replayed it because it was inside 2:00 in the forth quarter and he was definitely in.

Overwhelming yay i would say

Honestly all I can say is damn this game is fun. There are still a lot of things that need to be fixed and I hope they still many many more animations for variety, but the running game is so much fun. What I like best (other than the fact that the CPU can actually run on you, including long runs) is that both power back and speed backs can hurt you. I played the free demo this morning and had a game where Marion hits an off tackle run and gets two guys on him after 8 yards, then he breaks through it and rips it off for another 40 yards. Then the next time I get the play I run the wildcat sweep and rip off an 80 yarder untouched with Felix. I'm enjoying it too much to try to "break" the game and figure out where things need to be fixed, more than I could ever say about 09.

Well...I'm down 24-0 at the half vs the Steelers on All-Madden. The new slow game speed is tough to adjust to right now, but I'll adjust. I'll probably raise the game speed a bit once the retail hits.

Some people forget it's a GAME.

I LUVED 2K but it wasn't perfect. I luv The Show, and it isn't perfect.

on PS3 does anyone else notice that in replay, the graphics look really soft. as if the resolution is lower, or the textures are just lower quality. i find that the gameplay looks cleaner than the replays.

does the 360 have this issue?

also the ball always spirals the wrong way for righties.

I have my 360 on 1080i. What is the PS3 playing on? The Show played best with 720p.

Wow. Terrible glitch.


Fan in a crowd shot had a #3 Jeff Reed jersey on. That is not realistic. Totally ruins my sim experience! Ian, this MUST be patched! Will not purchase until I know this is fixed.



Sarcasm people...

lol come on man. dont justify cause u cant and that video proves nothing. marion was getting knock back and he hitting went on one knee, kept his balance and proceeded. the potty train tackle is bad physics, no one can break a tackle or balance themselves when your legs are spread forward and there back is arch

its just bad physics in account. EA can portray the beast marion is BETTER.
