Had the coolest challenge related series last night

[caseyd]

Last night, I was playing the Cowboys (I'm the Eagles) in preseason, and the Cowboys were driving. They had the ball down at my 5 yard line. They ran a play with Hambrick and the refs gave him a score. I thought that the spot at the goaline was bad, so I challenged the play. The replay showed that he was stopped before he got in, so it was overturned. On the next play, I stopped them from scoring, and on 3rd down, they threw a pass into the endzone that Vincent intercepted and returned 101 yards for a score. Besides the fact that I've never returned an interception that far in my videogame life, it preserved the shutout for me. Vincent returned 2 INTs for touchdowns in that game. I'm playing on Pro, so it may not mean much, but it was cool nonetheless.

I'm a longtime Madden player and never liked the Sega series before. I don't know what they did this year, but I am hooked. The Presentation is awesome and the gameplay has gotten much better.

Re: Had the coolest challenge related series last night

I've had a lot of good experiences with the challenge this year, actually. I've had the CPU win challenges and lose challenges, and I have yet to see a play get overturned (or stand, for that matter) that didn't deserve the outcome. I was afraid of having that "crap the CPU is challenging, that means I lost" attitude, but I don't have it yet. I have had them challenge on change of possession, turnovers (I know, they're change of possession too, but not just simple turnover-on-downs plays), what have you. Any big play that's questionable seems to get challenged by the CPU, and I like that. Do I like the fact that they might burn both challenges by halftime, on ball spot errors that really don't matter? Not really, but overall I like the challenge system.

Oh, and don't be ashamed of playing on Pro, either...whatever you have fun with is all that matters. You have to play the games, not anybody else.

The other day, the CPU challenged a spot, and although the spot call was overturned, it wasn't overturned enough so that the CPU got the first down. It showed the coach on the sideline throwing his clipboard. Very Cool!
