When running the 40 (alternate pressing the right and left sticks down), you'll see the player running with a PIP window showing you his facial expressions as he motors. Hit a grove in your taps and you'll see a blur effect, helping your player sprint faster toward the finish. In the bench press, you're simultaneously pressing the sticks up and down to mimic arm movements, while slamming on the bumpers in between reps for added strength and stamina But if the blocking up front is broken, there's no point in running the ball, even if you're leading the charge or spinning through tackles. That's why the team at Tiburon spent a lot of development time fixing the run blocking in the game.

just because they say they have fixed run blocking that does not mean suction blocking is gone. They have said they addressed run blocking before and suction blocking was the primary technique But I'll reserve judgement because I know they were given alot of information this go around to fix things in the game.

speaking of create a player, i hope you can choose to actually make a player with certain stats and ratings. either that or have a helluva roster update bi weekly adding missing players into the game.

In their new stadium in Glendale (west suburb).....it is already sold out for this coming season if you can believe that.

Not that it matters where they play.......they always seem to lose. www.arizonacardinals.com

You honestly think Madden will run 60FPS on the PS3? Seriously, ppl think Madden will be a whole new game on the PS3..Like EA is holding out to deliver the goods yo the PS3..

I hate how one endzone is completely seat less due to the retractable grass surface... definetly not a fan friendly stadium.

I like the new blocking feature, but it's a lil cheap on EA's part..Instead of fixing the blocking AI, the user much do it for them..

actually if you check out the 3-d seating chart on the website it looks pretty good......They really don't need end-zone seats unless it is so the opposing team can leap into the stands after scoring though.
