    Does it seem like the pass rush is really fast to anyone else?

        Can someone helps me out??? I've been playing on All Madden and it seems like I only get 2 seconds to throw the ball every time and I'm using the niners which have a very good offensive line. I know the Giants have a great defensive line but they shouldn't get there every passing play.
        Another problem is dropped passes and the computer ALWAYS breaking tackles. Can someone tell me if its the difficulty or am I just rusty? Haven't played a football game in a month....

          Yes, I can help you out. When playing on All-Madden all user skills are dipped down to 25 (what a cheap way to acheive a more difficult game). Just go into your settings and raise all the user skills back up to the default of 50.

          I like to keep the tackling for users and the cpu at 25 and take the running skills up to 55 so ball-carriers don't get tackled so easily.

            Yes...the first time i played the demo..after two plays i went into options switched to "very slow" and stayed there for a while..went back to normal speed and its sooooooo much better on "very slow" speed in my honest opinion. If any of you guys do not like the game..try it on very slow speed..its a night and day difference for me..something that needs to be mentioned to everyone in the madden forum...heck making a thread on the speed of madden 13 should be made noting that "slow" or "very slow" is the way to go with M13.

              I agree I'm having a blast on all pro and very slow.

                Could not agree more with this... NCAA feels 'muddy' and stale. The animations are canned and everything feels regimented and mechanic. Madden seems fluid and organic. Still need more playing time but going back to NCAA feels like going back a generation...

                    I agree. I went back and tried to play NCAA last night and I couldn't do it.

                      About the dropped passes, if you user catch press and hold the catch button it gives you a better percentage of catching it. I got this from the manual> http://www.easports.com/madden-nfl/promo/manuals

                        Is demo forcing Xbox to freeze up 2nd time this has happen. Now that honey moon phases over I'm be putting more of my opinion out there. Like how the jerseys get dirty but only one team does. Played on all modded only had one dropped by CPU in crucial 3rd n long. Noticing the bumper car tackling everybody been talking bout not enough wrapping up. Do like the physics but don't need everybody falling over constantly. Does anybody else feel like when you running and you get behind a blocker you can get off him to make cut

                          Commentary and presentation is better than previous maddens but still no home run however I do take into account this is a demo in which I don't exactly know build number. Idk if it's skating feel but d players feel lighter. Their pace should be slowed down by position/weight/spd/acc/ quickness etc.. I shouldn't be able to move a db from opposite line of scrimmage to other in same time as a lineman or lb

                          Couldn't run for nothing on all madden with Seahawks online most of runs outside we're blown up in backfield or right when I'm bout to turn corner even when input Leon Washington in

                          Liking return game actually can make some moves in get to 28-35 starting line for drive if I read blocks well etc.

                          Stiff arm sucks and ball should be in hand where defender is not at frustrating to try turning a corner only to have the ball in ur arm for the stiff arming

                          Also blocking wrs/tes should hold up their block better

                            Moe games you can blame both parties developers and publishers. how ever publishers do hold control on what's in game and not how much resources/time spent to spread out but since ea is an major gaming company it's no excuse. As a future game programmer shoddy coding is unacceptable although sports won't be my main genre(RPGs) for creating games I do eventually plan on doing a few especially football and I'll try to do my best to replicate a sim football since its my favorite sport. However that won't be for a few more yrs until I graduate college. It's a business as the developers probably want to create a sim game however casual fans win majority of time especially for sports fan at least with ea

                              So far, so good! Using my personal sliders from last year, I have had a few good games thus far. I usually play on longer quarter lengths (12-15 minutes) but I am happy my sliders translate well and are more effective than last year.

                              Negatives:
                              Ball spins the wrong direction when thrown, should be counterclockwise when throwing with a right hander. Aside from that, nothing too bad I notice. I just hope the fatigue glitch is gone and we can have real 15 min quarters in Franchise mode.

                              Demo Grade: A-

                                Great demo. Props to the EA team - you finally earned my respect. And that is hard to do since NFL 2K5 and All-Pro 2K8 - were still punishing your team for the past few Madden years.

                                Why is everyone so excited? EA finally delivered on their slogan, "If it's in the game...it's in the game."

                                A perfect example of this was my second play on offense from the gun formation with the defense in press coverage and my wide receiver sprints off the line of scrimmage, fighting the cornerback off, only to make a post pattern where another DB shades the wide receiver inside and jumps his route too early and the referee throws a flag?"

                                What's this? A flag is thrown? Offense or defense?

                                The suspense was choking me I am watching the referee jog forward to the center of the screen.

                                He motions his arms and says, "Defensive pass interference..."

                                I am definitely buying this Madden. This year the EA Madden 13 demo is not perfect, but it is a polished product that shows for the first time that EA is cleaning up its act and getting back to the years when their slogan held some meaning.
