Trust me, as someone who rushed home from work at lunch in pure excitement to play this game, it is not worth it

I think we're all going to have to wait until NCAA 2011 to get the game we were all hoping for from 10.

Ok, I can't confirm because there is no instant replay in the demo, but it sure feels like they implemented the Madden cheat.

I had scrambled around the edge on a sneak with Tebow, only to see a DE shed his blocker and track me down- even with a 5 yard lateral head start I had no chance.

The biggest issue with running is that the game moves WAY too fast to be able to effectively identify and then hit a hole. It's just complete chaos after the snap on offense because of the game speed.

I'm loving this demo; I'm loving the pocket. The speed at which the QBs throw the ball is too fast, but this is definitely not a rehash of 09 with updated rosters.

Considering that NCAA 10 is just something to hold me over until madden 10 drops, I couldn't be happier. This just goes to show you that you can't jugde a game by the videos that are posted on the internet.

This makes Madden 10 look even more promising; it's obvious with all of the features that are going to be in madden 10 that haven't made it into NCAA 10, that if I like the fee to this demo, I'm going to love madden 10.

Ok, this really pissed me off. So I had the running gameplay on aggressive all game (for those who don't know it increases the chance of breaking tackles but also increases fumbles). Down 10-7 with 40 seconds left, I was inside their redzone. I put the running on conservative to ensure I'd at least get a FG and put it into OT (hadn't turned the ball over all game). The FIRST PLAY AFTER I put it on conservative I fumble while on my way to pay dirt. Effing ANNOYING!!!!!

That's not just a M09 thing, it's been that way in every Madden/NCAA since the first ps2 versions.

Why do people say I will not be buying this game only renting? What are you going to get out of a 5 day rental?
