The CPU AI is immensely improved...

Bold statement. I hope it stands the test of time.

If Madden'10 is capable of challenging me mentally, I will be able to forgive many of it's other short-comings.

Re: PastaPadre Madden 10 Impressions

woah woah woah, no contracts in online franchise? how is this going to work? as a commish, i'm at a loss. i can deal with no cap and no trade logic, but no contracts? wtf...seriously, this ruins the entire experience.

or salary cap(which makes sense with no money contracts) ...this troubled me as well. I guess the only answer is to be as real to life as possible,and maker your users comply with a real NFL sim type league,if you know what I mean, like update rosters as the transactions in the real NFL happen....or you just have to go fantasy football in year one of EA's first foray into OF...and once again..."look forward to next year".....

Re: PastaPadre Madden 10 Impressions

From all the blogs and all the recent videos I have seen in the past week. I can say this is way beyond what 09 was a yea ago. Yes there is still going to be some flaws in madden 10 I will admit that. But no game is perfect. Yes there is some things in madden 10 that really need to be worked on like halftime show and the presention. The pro tak looks good but it still need to be adjusted and tuned some more. I ain't setting here and saying the game looks great and prasing Ian for once. Ian and his crew did a real good job on it. Yes there is going to be some people still want buy it because something are another ain't to there liking. I understand that. But just because the presention aka halftime show ain't where it needs to be for now, and the announcers ain't all that good. Is not going to stop me from buying it. The game play looks real good. The offline franchise mode has nothing big in it this year. But They did fix the freeze problem in franchise mode and they did fixed the logic in drafting FA and so on. While this madden ain't perfect and it needs some work still. Over all the game looks to be real good and fun to play when we get it. So for now until I get the game and play it my rating from what I have seen so far would be about a 7.5.:wink:

DAMN DAWG!!!!!! After all the defending you have been doing you give the game a 7.5?!?!?! LOL you all right with me mayne.

Re: PastaPadre Madden 10 Impressions

I'm not sure if this happens to others, but everytime I try to open this Pasta.. page, my IE8 freezes and restarts.

Nonetheless, that small comment posted is interested. I'd like to read what other reviewers say and their experince playing the game, however. The game does look good from the videos though. Just the gameplay bothers me a bit and how the players move.

Dude I feel you. I try to get on pasta site aswell and my IE just freeze up and I have to restart my pc altogether. I don't have no clue why it happens. Maybe pasta does.

If you're having this problem PM me the browser you're using and version of it. Seems like its just a handful of people having this happen and they all are using IE. Trying to narrow it down to figure it out.

Re: PastaPadre Madden 10 Impressions

Not a single word on OFFline Franchise!!!! .

That means he's not allowed to say anything.... which means the EA marketing department has embargo'd details of it until they're ready to hype it.

This can only be a good thing... God i hope i'm right

Nothing preventing me from talking about it. E3 just isn't an environment where you can get into franchise mode.

Re: PastaPadre Madden 10 Impressions

I am thinking that the Contracts, Cap, and Trade Logic would put to much stress on the EA servers. There is still some time to get this into the game so I would not freak out yet. I would wait until Monday and hear what Ian has to say.

Not so much... the reason is time. Nothing less, nothing more. Time.

Well bro some people on heree lately has been getting on my case bout defending Ian and madden crew. I am trying to find a balance between defending the game and Ian and his crew, but trying to point out the bad points in the game aswell. I see that the game has some issues still even with all that Ian and crew has done to it this year. The game overall is going to be fun again. But people can't expect Ian to produce a perfect game. Every gmae will have some problems. But the game does got some tuning and tweaking issues that need to be fixed in the next few weeks are when they are working on the game for next year. I am so sorry if I am hurting some of your feelings trying to defend a guy who has taken his time and coming on here to intereact with us and give us our wishes into the game. But even when he does all that. People seem to still find ways to pick him apart even for the smallest crap.

When Ian spoke to you about implementing contracts and cap into O.F., how optimistic did he sound?

Re: PastaPadre Madden 10 Impressions

Love my boy Pasta, but he's definitely on the take....

"I was relieved that Pro Tak didn't take over the experience..."

As in, you never see it lol... I think I saw it 3 or 4 times in all of those videos that are up. I have heard people say that it shouldn't be frequent, but get real... the majority of plays up the middle should result in a multi player tackle at the end of the run.

To make matters worse, one of the more prominent moments where I saw it in action was very strange; It happened right after a reception, the wr turned up field and got in a "fight for every yard" situation with no momentum after the turn and near the sideline caught between a safety and a chasing db haha...

I really have to stop or i'll be labeled a *****

All said, I am buying this game!
