The demo is unbelievably slow...I like the running game though.
Passing Defense and passing offense is a little sketchy though.

Haha, I love that quote.
I will give my impressions though. I think a couple things that are in serious need of reworking. One is just the overall ai logic in every aspect of the game. I have CPU DBs with eyes in the back of their heads, lineman not blocking guys in front of their face and going for guys behind them, etc.. This things happen all the time, it's just not once in a while but all the time. I'm always left with the thought of, "what is this guy doing?" Secondly, is the running animation. I know the gameplay is slower, but my guys just look like they are jogging no matter what.
The legs are moving slow and lumbering not smooth.

I'm a PS3 owner--can you still tell the difference between the NY/DAL demo and the Madden 2009 speed? I played the 5 minute PITT/ARI demo, and the slowed down gameplay is nice, but I think it may be a bit too slow. Really interested to see the difference between 9% (slow, offline default) and 5% (normal, online default).
Well I have said that I find the demo is extremely fun. The are some moments in the game where I say to myself damn this game is unreal.
With that being said some of the things that bring me back to my living room per say they are not many but do damper the experience nonetheless.
First the over the shoulder catching is done poorly. I hope its not in the final build in the state it is in right now. The WR never really looks at the ball and the WR also looks like he is about to break his back while making that catch. LOL It also happens too often.
Second I hope that the dev's can tune the WR/DB interactions some more especially while the ball is in the air. They look wayyy better than last year but still are not very believable like some of the other aspects of the game.
Third the cut scenes are wonderful, but don't flow as good as they could. I also hope this is cleaned up before release.
I do like this game though and cannot wait until my Chises(plural) get started. Wo0t!!

I noticed a minor error during the national anthem cutscene. There are Cardinals players standing in front of the Steelers sideline. Watch it closely next time if you haven't seen it yet. It's pretty funny.

Alright guys, here is another breakdown from me. I've also got a video coming up about what I think of Pro Tak at this point.
Positives
QB's feel like the they should.
The more frustated they get the worse they perform.
Pro Tak is not all that Pro Wak like I said before.
The running game is pretty good. You really have to work for a run. It's not going to come easy.
I feel like I played to very realistic simulation games.
I like the tackle animations.
The hit stick seems to work pretty well when you get used to it.
Stiff arming has to be timed perfectly, like in a real game.
Negatives
The demo lacks substance and does not represent the full game, which may turn some people off.
They should have had the pregame sessions last longer.
Half-time needs some real depth.
Post game after the superbowl needs some serious attention.
Sometimes my missed assignments are DB's just standing in the middle of "wtf world" and he doesn't cover his man or any man at all. I had 2 defenders standing there looking at each other for about 5 seconds.
Now, the question is, will I be picking this game up on release day? 50/50
The other question; which console will I get it for? Most likely the PS3, since my 360 scares me to death with the whole RRoD bit.

2. Thats the way it is my friend. Don't like it? Neither do I. EA has a monopoly, no doubt. I(like many other people) will buy Madden every year no matter what just because I love the NFL that much. There is absolutely no way to boycott EA now. Let say we all get together and do it, at the very very most they lose lets say..... 500,000 sales. They'll still profit with an unbelievable profit and all will be good. The only way to truly boycott is to got AT LEAST a million people to join, a number we simply can't reach right now.
And to everyone saying you can get pressure, three questions. What demo are you playing on, what skill level, and are you user rushing?

ok after getting the demo yesterday and already playing about 5 games i must say.... its pretty impressive the presentation the graphics the player models look very nice. the game really kinda feels like nfl2k5 for me. the thing that is sad tho is that ea took this long to catch up but it seems like they finally did. i have it for the ps3 verison and i am happy with it.
theres a couple of things i needed to get use to like the game pace was really slow at first but now i am good with it.
EA you need to fix blitzing on D it doesnt work 95 percent of the time not even a slight pressure.
i finally feel like i am getting a game worth 60$ from ea sports this year.
cant wait for the real game.

Played a few games of the 5 minute quarter demo....pretty good imo. I only really had one complaint and that was one of the tackle animations. I was returning a kickoff and was hit pretty hard...starting falling back but hit up on the truck stick..highlight stick..whatever you want to call it..and the ball carrier which was me..went from nearly falling on his back to standing straight up and trucking the person tackling me. It only happened once but I happened to catch it. Other than that not much gripe...except the lack of d-line pressure but im not sure if the demo is after the problem was found or before with getting pressure. The game speed was weird at first but its kind of grew on me.

It's a demo, slick. They cut out the half time and post game stuff. It's supposed to be a taste of the game.

Just won a game on a Hail Mary with the Steelers. Threw it up, the ball was batted and Holmes came up with it.
Pretty fun to watch.
BTW...I know someone else said they've seen it happen, but I have yet to see the cpu punt the ball to the coffin corner. They always punt the ball down the middle of the field and unless they get a lucky bounce, it ends up a touchback. (PS3/All Madden if it makes a difference)
Also, the missed field goal returns seem to be a guaranteed TD return each time. I'm 3 for 3 thus far and the kicking team seems oblivious to the fact that I'm returning the missed attempt and don't really pursue the ball carrier until I reach the kicker.

Gameplay is way too slow for me. I honestly don't understand how slowing a football game down makes it more realistic.This is just my opinion but the demo saved me $65.00
