I've played 6-7 games on the PS3 so far. I must say I actually like the demo. It's not perfect but it actually plays a good game. I went 3-3 on all pro and 0-1 on all-madden. I didn't notice the super lb or psychic dbs, I didn't feel cheated at any point.

A few concerns tho, (forgive me if they have been mentioned) all-pro running game does seem a little too easy. I ran hb slam out of gb's full house formation and went over 150 yrds wtih Grant, added another +40 yrd run with Starks and Jackson both. The cpu could not stop it.

I had a extra point blocked which I thought was pretty cool cause I have never seen that in Madden, but the guy who blocked it came in off the edge, that's almost impossible on an xp. I hope it's not over done as EA tends to do.

3rd and 4-6 yards was almost always the same play by the cpu. Passing play but the qb would scramble up the middle. Became very predictable. Chicago tried it on 3 straight 3rd down attempts in one of the games.

Overall the game has its problems but it's fun to play. I haven't been able to say that about any other nexgen madden. Now I just pray a tuner set doesn't change my mind.

Anyone else notice how much better the 360 version looks compared to the PS3 version?

I'm playing on all pro as the bears. got 2 sacks and a forced fumble but didnt pick it up. 4th down i end up blocking the fg and returning it for a td now up 10-7. i havent played a madden game since like 05 and i think that was my first blocked fg ever.

I'm surprised how many people play on AP, Madden has always been cheesy on AP.

I really hope they have the blocking fixed in the final version (I doubt it), but if this was suppose to be an area of improvement, the same glitches and issues that plagued it last year shouldn't be showing up within 2 games on Madden 12.

Yes, PS3 is horrible, X360 is way better...haha sorry bro, downloaded both the X360 and PS3 demo and they are both the same.

Seems like a solid build this year. I have not looked thru all the pages in this thread, but has anyone noticed you can 'trip'? I had an ai RB break free in open field only to change direction too fast and trip over his own feet.

Just played my first game in the demo and I gotta say... I'm not terribly impressed... I've been playing NCAA12 nonstop since it came out so maybe I'm too used the way it plays over the demo but it seems so much more fluid... Kind of like the framerates are lower in Madden... And for some reason, it's a bitch to run the ball as well.

The presentation was awesome though and I did notice the graphic improvements, but that's not why I'd be buying the game. I have it reserved but I'm just not sure if I'll go through with it. NCAA12 has got me hooked right now and it may just be worth my while to keep on it and wait until Madden comes down in price... Idk... I'm just kind of disappointed.

Has anyone seen the CHAIN GANG come out to measure for a first down?

After tons of games of NCAA 12 and only a few of the Madden demo, it appears that psychic DBs are no where near as prevalent in Madden.

I like Dynasty infinitely more than Franchise mode, but I wish NCAA had Madden's coverage gameplay.

What the hell setting we supposed to use then?
