Okay yes your allowed to have your opinion and I fully understand you not liking the camera angle, however if you would take the time to read others posts you would know that one of the EA guys posted in this very thread that tbe retail version will have multiple camera angles the ok ne in the demo is the "standard" demo, however there will also be a "zoomed" angle

Ok, the QBs running? Im not seeing ridiculous YPC or "Usain Bolt" QB speed. Heres my theory, some of you must be blitzing like wild, usering DBs and free-lancing when you have no business doing so, or going wild mashing buttons/sticks and taking yourself out of the play.

Every QB scramble ive seen was well timed and executed, I have no idea what some of you are seeing.

Not to incite a 2K/Madden debate either, but 2K's presentation was the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Madden's is still in JV in comparison in my opinion.

To make this post somewhat impressions related, there's still no proper halftime or postgame show to speak of in Madden 12. I honestly can't see how that warrants a game being "in a league of its own." The commentary is still elementary (going by the Madden 12 videos that EA has posted), and the cutscenes that do exist in the game will probably be old by the time to retail drops, assuming you'll be one of the ones who plays the demo nonstop until then.

It's not a glitch, it's a design decision. There's a difference. Regardless, you've posted this like 10 times in this thread.

I think what he means is that even though they've surpassed their past titles in the presentation department, there is still room for improvement. Presentation in 2K (football/basketball) games have always been top notch, and even though Madden has finally made most of us smile in that department there is still room to exceed the standard just like 2k5, for it's time, did back then. I for one am a presentation whore, and I dig what I see.

I never understood what took so long to at least try and improve this aspect of its virtual football game. Hell, it took SCE San Diego one shot to get it right with MLB the Show...but I digress, this shouldn't turn into a 2K/Madden skirmish but more of an acknowledgement that Madden has vastly improved.

One thing I noticed is that gameplans are heavily slanted towards zone, which for the Bears is okay because they are heavily a zone defense team, but I was under the impression the Packers played some of the tightest man to man in the league. So far gameplan for them has not reflected this.
