Run blocking is still kind of bad. I like the demo and all but I HATE it when a blocker just ignores a defender.

It was pretty good. Defense was fun and challenging on All-American. The only gripe I have is the wide open streaks. I'm sure it can be fixed with good sliders. Good demo.

I actually have to stop reading the comments after the demo release day because they almost always turn negative.
I'm really enjoying the demo, but I usually don't play more than 10 games of it, so I don't see the bad things over and over again like some do. And that's how I like it.

Anyone have any tips on the option pitch? It seems like the RB everytime I try to pitch is not expecting the ball

so we still have no idea what any of the players are rated? Has anyone played against Bama and if so, is their D line unblockable?

Has anyone played PS3 demo yet?
Does the graphics look similar or is Xbox better?

Played a couple more games, this time with FSU. On the plus side I haven't noticed the blitzing issue that people were talking about. I didn't record a single sack and my blitz was picked up every time.
But, the downside to that is that most of the time my entire D-line was getting put on their butt within a second. It's so silly and doesn't make any sense to have your D-line get knocked down, all at the same time, all right when the ball is snapped.
Also, the blocking is really becoming problematic, again. Assignment logic really needs work. Often you'll notice WRs miss the most logical blocks and never touch anyone. They'll go to one guy, change their mind, go somewhere else, and by that time I'm tackled because they never put a hand on a single defender.
Plus, there's still no chip blocking or shoves. They have to be face to face in order to engage, which also makes the blocking bad and nonexistent in certain situations.

Played 2 games on AA (Alabama and Oregon) and won both games 21-0. I got a ton of pressure byt just playing as the Right DE and sitting back in a cover 3. Slants and Verticals are still pretty open to me. The intros are nice to watch once or twice but they are a little boring with no sound. I love the game tracks, but I had the same one 2x in one game. Not sure what is the new X button on D suppose to do (I didnt feel anything different from it). Overall, I liked it, but I enjoyed 11.
I always find it hard to play these games with just numbers and not real names...

The player movement/momentum on this game just feels weird to me. I'm tolerating it moreso than enjoying it. Changes in direction don't look right and the player seems to light in movement. This is most apparent when making a player cut. Although some foot planting is present, it's not convincing enough to make the open field running feel authentic.
Presentation has some nice touches. I like the end of the 1st quarter highlight reel and gametrack at the beginning of the 3rd quarter. The postgame highlights seem drawn out and cumbersome, but at least they are their with player of the game included.

So far my only real gripes are running out of the shotgun (I had almost no success at it as Oregon playing on AA) and defenders warping/magically accelerating at crazy speeds to swat away passes.
I think the tackling is very improved but it's still not at the level I would like it to be. In my experience there are very few instances of another defender actually adding onto a tackle, but instead the first defender falls off while the second finishes the job. There are also still many instances where defenders are falling around like bowling pins.
I have to admit, I feel better/more optimistic about the game after playing the demo, but I also feel that gameplay is still not quite where I would like it to be.

Ok Ya'll.
Finally got to play the demo for PS3. Just logged my first two games, playing both sides of the Texas - Oregon matchup.
I started on Heisman and left it on there for both games. I think this is the way to go for the demo. Based on what I watched on the 360 version and what I read on here AA is too easy.
First Game, Me (Oregon) vs Texas
14-17
I was on their 2 yard line and fumbled the ball going in with LMJ on a big hit, cost me the game. Not much defense in this game, any zone d I tried got lit up. I ran cover 2 zone 4 times and 3 of those times they had deep routes called and burned me. As Skillz has pointed out, blitzing is pretty money in the demo.
But, offenses on both sides of the ball played well. Running the shotgun attack was fun, I had some big gainers with LMJ on heisman, it was great. Felt kinda fresh, pretty fluid.
SEcond game, still on Heisman, Me Texas vs Oregon
I lost 10-7 thanks to 3 picks by Gilbert, man he is terrible in this game.
This was a really fun game, there was some defensive stops and good defensive pressure by both d-lines. The Oregon CPU offense was GREAT. LMJ had 91 yards on 9 carries and the Oregon CPU players ran the speed option twice, both for positive gains.
As texas, I was able to throw some thrd and short stops, as well as keeping them out of the endzone on 3 straight goal line plays, so it was nice to see it work both ways, they had a couple big runs but also were held. I scored a TD on a really nice diving catch by the CPU on a quick out route from the slot against zone. IT was a bad throw into coverage the CPU controlled WR just made a play for me. On the next drive though, I had a ball hit my WR right in the helmet, he didnt even try to catch it, guess im gonna have to user it more often.
IF you guys want to see the spread offense ran, play on Heisman, its way better. Both games were great, I dont think I am even gonna try AA in the demo, heisman is where its at.
In both games the CPU qb didnt scramble once, in the first game when I was oregon there were probably 3 instances where gilbert had moved out of the pocket a bit and had just daylight in front of him and just stood there. disappointing.

My Oregon CB was the player of the game with the following stats:
2 tackles for a loss
2 sacks
1 forced fumble
2 Interceptions
He wreaked havoc on Texas and I beat Texas 35 to 0. 3 passing TDs. 1 was 79 yards, 1 53 yards, 1 60 yards. James had a 89 yard TD run up the middle too.
It was funny seeing the Texas QB get yelled at by the coach.

Yeah I noticed that a lot with Gilbert. He would avoid the rush but stop short of actually crossing the LOS and just stand there.
That needs to be fixed.
