Re: Button Smashing or Lazy Bones?

I kind of fall somewhere in the middle. I love the button smashing for the old wrap tackle breakout deal, and love the idea of a risk/reward build-up by holding feature, but I like the x button to turn on the sprint. I say x button very deliberately because the trigger deal (and in fact the changing of controls from the last gen) is the worst thing to happen to Madden.

The trigger deal is too unrealistic, at least with the x/A button sprint you had to let off the sprint in order to spin/dive/hurdle/ and perform the R-stick moves. I am ok with sprinting stiff-arms and "cut moves" (please, please, please bring the old school controls back!!!) as long as the animation still slows the player's forward progress slightly.
