I want to like the new Madden but it just feel broken. I played about 10 games online and the pass coverage is just atrocious!!!! I know EA wants to eliminate psychic defenders but it seems like all they did was dumb down the defenders awareness. I'm seeing way to many balls get completed into tight places and on some instances the defender could have easily made a play on the ball. In a few cases I'm seeing defenders watch the WR catch the ball and then react to the play. And its not just my defender because I'm lighting up other people online as well. It seems like its not uncommon to score 21-28 points in a quarter in this game. And 42 points in a half is not out the norm either. It seems like the team with the most ints wins the game.

They lighting is terrible. IMO it could've been done better. It's easy to confuse playes with refs when throwing deep balls. They also coulve kept that motion blur feature because all that is really doing is making the colors look washed out or grainy. That's why the graphics look spectacular doing still shots but grainy during actual play. Is it me or is anyone else about tired of seeing 200 weird ankle, legs bends a game?? While the game is still fun to play, it does have a lot of faults. IMO, the pass coverage kills it for me.
