    Still in the game too. Sending 4 receivers deep against 3 defenders doesn't equate a mismatch in Madden 12 as defenders break on the ball no matter what. So a defender covering the tight end will break on the ball as soon as the throwing animation starts - even if it's thrown to another receiver. Just like it normally is in Madden.
    Shoot, I was hoping that wouldn't be the case. Oh well.

      I really like it. The presentation and gameplay are awesome. The tackling is great. I've already pre ordered my copy.

        I enjoyed playing it, but I have yet to go vs CPU.

        Some of the pros:

        -Presentation looks great, as promised.

        -Tackling feels fresh, and the game seems more "open"

        -Zone coverage has definitely improved.

        -I like how quickly the defense gets to the QB, but some may not.

        -Normal game speed appears slowed down

        Some of the cons:

        -I literally have not made a single XP/FG and most of my punts/kickoffs fail because the 2nd rung of the kick meter refuses to "kick in"

        -The tweaked audible system will take some getting used to for experienced Madden users.

          As i continue to play the game im enjoying it more and more, but i do hope this statement is true because the vids from E3 look better.

          side note: lol i hated the demo for NCAA and now i really like the game. So a good sign of things to come for Madden cause i do feel it will exceed NCAA this year.

            Lots of great feedback so far guys. I've been compiling the feedback from across the community and it'll be getting sent over to the development team later today.

              Based on what I'm reading, looks like I'll be buying Madden for the first time since the 2004 version.

              I haven't gotten all the way to the end of the thread, but is the PS3 demo available now?

                We're really working toward a new era for this game, and I think the team is more on board for that than ever before (as evidence by the fact that I'm still here, as my intial contract was extended).



                It's there... not sure if maybe the demo branch was made before we put the UI in for it. Try Up (to activate the presnap menu), then "A" for individual coverage, then the button of the receiver who's cover man you're trying to adjust, then left for shade left, right for shade right, up for back up, down for press.

                Yeah i was kinda harsh on Madden 11 even though i still played it a lot go figure LOL!

                But this year like i said after two games with the demo I think you guys did a very good job.....yes the game is way too fast at default but after dropping the speed and player threshold this game was pretty darn good in the gameplay area.

                The thing that stood out to me is the defense i can tell even in the demo that this game has great potential on that side of the ball...no more constant shootouts like Madden 11 seemed to dictate.

                        1. DPP is the real deal.

                        2. Big hits sound like big hits.

                        3. Graphically this game is great !

                        4. Players talk a lot, which is great.

                        5. I like how players argue with refs over calls. Jennings caught a TD pass but the ref said he was out of bounds. Jennings got in the ref face arguing his point of view saying he caught it in bounds, doing the whole arm movements and everything.

                        6. Zone coverage is very good, even against 4 verticals.

                        7. DEs actually pass rush and get after the QB.

                        8. Runners use ALL of their special moves.

                        9. When the QB scramble, they actually run with a purpose and try to get a TD. And NOT slide after 3 yards like they do so much in NCAA 12. Scrambling QBs also use ALL of their special moves while running, something that they don't do in NCAA 12.

                        Over all I can't understand how Madden 12 is so much better then NCAA 12 when they are made in the same building. It is like a night and day difference in game play, presentation, sound and graphics.

                        Some of these facial animations are down right eerie looking how life like it looks.

                            One thing I am seeing alot of is that animation where a tackler just knocks the running back down like he just hit a brick wall. It happens and plays too much. It makes it seem a little to arcadey. I have not seen that many wrap tackles if any.

                            Im loving the demo though!

                              Pros:
                              Presentation
                              Tackling
                              Passing Game
                              Running Game

                              Cons:
                              Kick Meter
                              Player/Refs popup randomly
                              Quarters go pretty fast for 5mins each
                              Replays they dont start at the beginning of the play.
                              Character faces kinda remind me of Madden 08
