Madden 09 Demo Videos (Pasta Padre)

Re: Madden 09 Demo Videos (Pasta Padre)

Exactly. Whats up with the in complete pass where the ball seems to pass over the heads of both the DB and receiver, then the DB all of a sudden does a 360 and bats the ball down with two hands. Looks cool doesn't it? Uh...no. It's a useless animation that was probably added to add "excitement" to the game. I've seen that one a couple of times, and thats a couple times too many.

Did you see that one handed interception by Asante Samuel? I cringed when I saw that.... I also cringed when I saw that he was able to land standing up and not lose one bit of energy running to the other endzone...
The way he was running was weird too ...like if he had a stick up his fanny...lol

Early build which means I'm not basing anything off of it.

Re: Madden 09 Demo Videos (Pasta Padre)

that play at 3:29 is the most annoying thing in NCAA and I see its made its way here too

Re: Madden 09 Demo Videos (Pasta Padre)

Game looks like it was built off of madden 07 xbox version.. not a bad thing though.. regarding the passes.. i hope some of the stronger armed QB's throws dont float like Eli's

Re: Madden 09 Demo Videos (Pasta Padre)

I'm excited for the game. We know a lot has been changed in the game since this build. I probably won't even play the demo, as to not jade myself. At least it moves at a more realistic pace than NCAA. Man, I'd love for the demo to have just normal gameplay. That way the AI wouldn't be skewed for the 2-minute drill. But I'll have my CE in a few weeks, so I'm good.

Man - is it just me or does the game look like it's in slow-motion?

Can't they speed up the flow of the game more? It looks slow, and I don't mean the framerate either.

Why wouldn't you play the demo via Xbox Live. That demo will basically be the final build. I don't know I guess I'm getting old. To me 90 dollars is alot of money and I'd like to see if the product is worth the money before I just toss it at it.

My understanding is that the demo on XBL will be the same as this one that was on the DVD. That's from an early April build before the tackling tweaks and I don't want to jade myself seeing flaws that have since been changed. And it isn't that long until the game ships. I'll just play Fifa08 until then. Would've played NCAA but it's broke, and it's worth 40 bones for trade on Madden and that'll pay for my HC game. So I'm good......

Re: Madden 09 Demo Videos (Pasta Padre)

I'll probably play the demo when it comes on live/PSN, but it's not going to change my decision. The only way I can truly get a feel for things is to actually play around with it...which means it will be a rental. I was almost tempted to buy just because of the packaging with head coach (very intriguing game) but I'll just take the "wait and see" approach.

Agreed.

After NCAA I'm almost forced to rent before I make my final decision (I luckily rented NCAA too).

I have it pre-ordered but I'm thinking about canceling it and renting it first.

Yeah, I rented NCAA also. Not as bad as many here have made it out to be, but I just can't get into it the same as pro football (though I played NCAA more when it had create-a-school....HINT HINT EA). If both Madden and Head Coach turn out to be at least solid, then the CE will be a great deal...so, we'll see.

Re: Madden 09 Demo Videos (Pasta Padre)

I agree
I will not take a Madden game seriously until I see a DB tracking the football like in real life...Are these players super saiyans or something? Tell me what DB in real life makes a amazing defensive play on the ball without turning to peek at the ball not even once?

I also notice that the DB's have mr. fantastic arms when they're running...
It's also inexplicable that we're in 09 and there's absolutely NO QB pocket....!!!
How long do we have to wait to see one? Madden 2045>>>?
Eli does move too fast . He's Michael Vick now?? *shakes head*

yes, if you didnt know jason seahorn was actually vegeta. and i swear that champ bailey is nappa. anything is possible.

The demos to be released early August are from a near-final build of the game.

Incorrect, the August Demo will be "near-final build", Straight from Phil.
