Understandable. So, does that mean that what you guys played down there was a more advanced version of the game even though it was a month earlier? If so, was the foot-planting better at all, and less zig-zagging?

Btw, does it go gold later than it used to since it comes out 2-3 weeks later.

The demo that's gonna be on xbox live is gonna be beta right?

Holy Crap. To say I'm excited about Madden this year is a drastic under-statement. The physics in this game look pretty unbelievable. I've been watching videos on it for the past hour and it has left me with a great impression.

Even the receivers catching the ball look more authentic. I love how you can now trip over guys as you're running and there is no more arms and legs going through players anymore. Everything has momentum! I love it. Can't wait for the game now!

Does it really matter? E3 isn't really the determining point for buying a game. Most fans know that games shown are usually still early to mid point in development. It all boils down to the final product really.

I'm not sure man, I can tell you that I felt (just from the videos I have seen) that the E3 builds seemed fast than what I played at CE. It could just be me though.

The demo is most likely being worked on right now, if it isn't already done.

I hope they let us play the demo early this year.
