Ton of Interceptions...

[Pared]

Way to cut and run. My agenda should be obvious: I want a good playing NFL game, as does everyone here. No need to resort to that when you've run yourself into a corner.

Okay.

You won. You got me. I was owned on a video game forum.

Whatever makes you happy.

As for me, I'm enjoying Madden '08.

I have some suggestions

1)put up the wr catching,pass blocking
2)lower the interception and blocking
3)Pass less so that the defense doesn't expect(it's called AI they WILL know)
4)Stop annd forget about using Hail Mary plays
5)practice route plays in the practice mode. so that you get a sense of speed of your WR for when they ar in a game

it's stinks but i think it's the improved AI they wanna play like us now

How bout we all get the game for ourselves and place our own judgements. I understand some here might not have the money, but don't let one persons opinion steer you away from what might be a great football experience.

I have yet to see a game in NCAA where the interceptions were off the charts. The most I saw in one game was 6 by the CPU and 3 by me. But that's not to say it could not or never has happend in real life. There have been plenty of games where there have been 1-3 int's or none.

Get the game for yourself and see for yourself what it is like. That's what I'm gonna do...

Besides everone's take here on gameplay is different. There is no status quo... I'm only fishing through threads on here trying to get info on franchise mode. The gameplay is going to be great!

Maybe now someone could provide some insight on how to minimize the CPU throwing picks with that out of the way.

FWIW, I'm referring to the PS3 version. Not sure if it makes a difference but according to most it doesn't.

That's what you get for messing with Da Slider guy.

Just to let everyone know...As late as 2001 the most interceptions thrown in a game was 7...

The record for most int's in a game is 9, and it happend in 1943 & 1965

8 interceptions were thrown in many games too... The last time being 1973.

Sooo int's can happen very frequently in a game...Adjust the sliders and putt the game in the CPU's favor. Make it harder for you to win, and the game will be fun.

I agree.
