The most overpowered move in football video games.
TSB's nosetackle dive says hi and sacks you before you can blink. Point taken, though.

That juke move at 3:10 was awesome. Hell everything from 3:00 to the end was awesome. That is the style of running I'm waiting to see a CPU RB do in a video game. I swear EA should just mocap Faulk and Barry Sanders. Running would be 100 times more realistic.

In Madden, it's fairly realistic actually. It's just that sometimes, they spin right into a defender which is bogus.

From the demo, I can say the spin move is too overpowering, but jukes could be more effective.

Its a gimmick -- until proper foot planting is implemented it will continue to look like an arcade move.

And I would hate if spinning was outlawed -- if hitstick isn't outlawed, spinning shouldn't be either. I'd much rather see spinning that zig zagging any day.

Give us back the quick juke/burst juke!!!! I rarely use spin cause it looks ugly and rarely works but the same can be said about the super slow jumping juke they have now.

It appears at the very least that the spin move needs some serious work to improve its rep!

Over 90% basically say that it needs work!
