i just hope we can pick the team we want to play as unlike Madden 09.

im sorry, i know this isn't going to go over well but I don't think this isa good idea,

I look at at this way:

At least they are finally giving us the opportunity to play a real demo, because these "madden moments" and 2 minute quarters demos EA usually puts out are horrible.

The darn things are over so quickly that there's no way to get a feel for the real game.

I saw that but i was wondering if EA would be so kind to let us play on both sides of the ball for the demo. I want to feel out my Cards on both sides.

Yeah they must have alot faith in this game this year. 4 five minute quaters was the last thing I expected for this demo.

Edit:Not that they didn't faith in this game already.

Well the pre-order demo you get all 4 quarters at 5 minutes a quarter .. so there should be no problem there ..

Awwww junk! I pre-ordered mine almost 2 weeks ago and that email thing they say on the Gamestop website is hard to believe. With FN4, there was all types of mis-information by Gamestop, including the email bull. At any rate, I was playing the demo the same day they said it was going to be opened to those who had pre-ordered on some other game site so I still got to play the demo early.

Anyway, 4 5min quarters?? Hotness! I hated how they only gave the end of the Superbowl game scenario last year as a demo because we were stuck playing only as the Giants on offense for under 2 min, although the demo on the PS3 was glitched to the point that at times, I would even get to kickoff after scoring the supposed game ending TD and even play on D for a little bit.
I can't wait for this demo. I'm calling Gamestop tomorrow about getting the physical card with the demo code.

Understood man ..

If you've pre-ordered then the assumption is that you have commited to buying the game. The 5 minutes, 4 quarter demo is to hold you over until you get your full copy. They don't need to give you a "taste" of the game, you've pre-ordered it, you ARE getting it as far as they are concerned.

Good move by EA to provide a hold over until the full game, though being exclusive to Gamespot is probably not a good move.

You can always cancel your pre-order afterwards or just change it to a different game you're getting for sure ..

# 96 FAM CEO @ 06/16/09 09:43 PM

What do guys think....online or in store preorder to get the demo the fastest?

# 97 rockchisler @ 06/16/09 09:44 PM
