It's funny to me when people say that by playing the demo that's there's not enough there to warrant a purchase in this years madden. I hope that means that they haven't bought madden for about the last 5 years then cause they haven't added jack really in any of them. Ever year up into this one has been the same ,vanilla, boring madden with one new feature every year that didn't really do anything for the gameplay. I'm happy there trying to do things different I don't want the same game year in and year out example college football. I told myself to play the demo first before reading anything about it and that's what I did with all the little knit picking going on its a demo no one knows what the retail version of the game is gonna be like. Madden is finally getting into the game and if they would of just added the new passing game like its little brother did I would of been pissed.

I assume your referring to me because its right below my post....Unfortunately, I have some news for you. The demo is a representation of the final product in a small sampling size...so dont kid yourself. And for me that sampling size is much bigger becomes it allows me to see EVERYTHING and the ONLY thing I care about, and that is the on the field gameplay.

Im not interested in any of the other fluff that comes in the final product...actually Im mistaken. I do care alot about franchise Mode, BUT being that they pretty much stripped out every customization feature that I enjoyed about THAT mode and told us way in advance about it.....I DO know what the final game is going to be like and there is nothing else that this retail version could provide that Im not already experiencing that would change my mind unless they completely tweaked the $hit out of it.

...So thanks and there's nothing funny about this...or this year's game. Its actually pretty sad.

The field and the grass looks awesome in the game,looks just like it should in real life. NCAA hardly ever gets that look right.

So you expected the infinity engine to be 100% perfect? Despite all of the other overhauls they had to do to this game, did you REALLY think that it was going to be great the first time around? Name one thing that worked perfectly the first time around in ANY sports game? Even 2k had it's fair share of problems in the early stages of their work. Yes, Madden is a 24-year-old franchise, but you're acting as if they were working on the real time physics the entire time. They just now decided to put it into their game, and while it's long overdue, it wasn't going to be perfect the first time around. Nothing is.

Btw, you may think all of those things are gimmicks, but personally I believe they ARE a big priority to football games as it's something we see on TV when watching the games.

I'll keep it short as possible. First, there are no "all these overhauls". Its just an engine that forces players to react to contact of other objects. Second, Fifa had this engine before Madden, so lets not try and recycle this "allow EA to develop the supposedly new technology" excuse that has been given to EA by complacent fanboys. And on top of that, they managed to not address MANY other issues that contradict similation football. Third, presentation does not take precedence over the absence of physics which is what the game is about. Presentation should be fixed when FOOTBALL is excercised in a manner that "we are used to watching on TV".


One last thing. Why does the fact that people are not content with EA adding features that games as long as 8 or 9 years had, be perverted to "So you expected the infinity engine to be 100% perfect?" Who said this? Please educate me on the standard amount of years that EA has to "perfect" a "new" engine. Then teach us when this rule came about that suggest that we should give a 4 or 5 year grace period for every "new" engine or feature that EA proposes at least every 2 years? At that rate, THEY CAN NEVER BE ACCOUNTABLE FOR THEIR ACTIONS BECAUSE THE PROPOSAL OF SOMETHING "NEW" WILL PUT PEOPLE BACK INTO THE "did you REALLY think that it was going to be great the first time around?" PHASE.

No if I was talking to you PERSONALLY I would of QUOTED it. I never heard what build and what version made it into the demo so how old is it i don't know they ever said. FIFA was not the same from there demo to the retail version. Engine does need some tweaking but what game EA has ever made not needed tweaking? And I got some news for you no game is ever perfect.I guess I really never thought the other maddens where that good aleast in the last 5 years or so but love football so I just dealt with it, but I enjoy this one the most.lol

I do not get why people were assuming the physics engine was going to be flawless..

It makes the game so much better, this and NCAA is night and day.

Yes there are some ugly hiccups but this also the first time EA has used physics for their football games.

They never said it was perfect, and while it is far from it, this is a step in the direction by a longshot.

For some reason encroachment on the center is one of the most surprising things of the demo for me. You can knock him over, IE kicks in because he has the ball. The rest of the players unfortunately just behave like they did previously and don't react to contact.

Just played a few more game. Still enjoying.

I just realized something was missing from pre game...did they take out the team entrances or did that just not make the demo?

I think it was replaced by the nfl primtime intro and commentators.

We don't want, expect, or even need perfect. Is IE itself good in the game? For some of us it is, for some it's really bad. 8th iteration, $60.

Starting to enjoy the demo more, especially as controlling the Seahawks. But the AI's shoddy playcalling is rearing its head. Ugh...
