Dude, you will NEVER be happy with madden..maybe its time you move along now...if you cant appreciate any thing that has improved this year..then your one simple *****, thats all, amigo

What are you talking about? I can be critical and still want the game to be good. I didn't say it was bad, I said it was meh and I reserve judgement for the final build. The E3 comment is that I feel like it played like the videos I saw from E3. My expectations are high, I never said it played a bad game of football, I just said it was meh to me.

Calling me a "*****" what does that make you? Since I see you did a personal attack. I figure turnabout is fair play.

See to me, you are a boot licking, b!tch made dude, you have the emotions of a teenage girl. When you let post by grown men affect you in a way that you roll your eyes. B!tches do B!tch ish. Just because someone doesn't share your same opinion doesn't make them a *****. I'm critical for a reason, my complaints have always been about the tackling and running animations. I have never said madden sucked or the dev sucked.

Its a demo, its not the finished product, its an ok demo which got an ok response i.e. meh. And if you looked up my follow up response you would have seen that I said it was luke warm.

Now look at my history you don't have to scroll down much to see, I said the game looks great, but I'm a *****.

And it's HIS thinking you're worried about?

Yikes...

They added a bunch of cosmetic stuff like chain gangs and refs but the core of this game is still broken. Pro tak is extremely disappointing, suction blocking is running wild, and tron jogging pathetic.

Re: Madden NFL 10 Demo Available, Post Impressions Here

My first impression are that I absolutely LOVE the game speed. This feels very much like APF 2K8 (im sure this was said a lot already) but it's a good thing.

In Madden 09, I was a very good player (184-83), but in M10, I can't win a game on all-madden to save my life. I played as the Cards and will do so until I beat Pit. Polamalu is a freaking ballhawk and I was throwing pick after pick, but those deserved to be pics. I like how hard it is to user catch/pick. This was a real challenge because you cant just throw the ball all the time. In order to have success, you need a balanced attack. Wildcat was very fun to use as well.

I am very impressed with the direction of the franchise. Kudos to the Madden team. This is a day one purchase for me. I took the Friday and Monday of as well lol!

Other than that boy this demo plays slow. I called a double fade route with Bolden & Fitzgerald. Bolden was pressed but I timed Fitz (who was untouched) running a 4.4 25 at full speed - or 25 yards in 4.4 seconds. If you want to throw long you have sit back in the pocket and pick your nose, and if the WR's get bumped or pressed you might as well forget it because you'll get sacked or hit which makes the ball fly like a wounded duck in random locations. And people are screaming for increased pass rush? I don't know - it seems like that will screw up the deep game completely if the DL can get to the passer in 3 seconds (at least in this slow mode thing.)

And why wasn't this demo in normal speed? Oddball decision.

I doubt it's that slow. I'd try to confirm this myself but I'm at work currently. I remember playing the demo and it's slower than last year and NCAA but I didn't think it was that slow.

Ian, I sure hope out of this massive thread you read this. I have seriously prayed for a game that "feels" like this since I was first introduced to NFL 2k5 back in the summer of 2004. This game defys all logic of "Arcade Next-Gen Madden". This is the first X360 football game that TRULY deserves its NFL Licence. It is SIM and it is FUN. You sir, and your team.. Donny, Phil, Anim8tor.. You guys did an incredible job. I cannot say enough about how excited I am to get my hands on the final version.

The menu screen SCREAMS no gimmicks. Have you ever fired up a game and knew it would be SICK just from the damn menu screen? Madden 10 does that

The cut-scenes are incredible. From the players to watch, to the time-out QB cut scenes - I was sitting there with my jaws dropped. It is incredible. The post play is just icing on the cake.. it is AWESOME! (Is there anyway to make the players to watch screen a little longer with good insight from the commentary in Madden 11? - I know you guys are redoing the commentary next year as well as locomotion, I am STOKED about that!)

The Gameplay is so much better than ANY of the Maddens i've played next gen. Though I am a huge critic of the generic run styles that plague Madden, the game feels so real and fine tuned its incredibly easy to bypass this issue all together. Seriously, it feels like a REAL GAME.

The crowd OMG.... OMG.... OMG... *faints* - First football game im sure I can play w/o any commentary... I really cannot say enough about the crowd noise, you guys NAILED IT.

Thank you man, seriously. Thank you!

You are spot on. I feel the same way. I think that this will be the Madden that officially returns me to the series.

I had to read your post twice to make sure it said what I thought it did.

Glad you're enjoying the demo man.

I don't like how the camera tracks the ball on field goals. I think the field goal kicking camera is way better in NCAA than it is in Madden. It takes away from the immersion factor. Also they still need to tone the juking down when running. You can still pull off some over unrealistic jukes too easily.

I agree with this. I wonder if it will be better in the retail version.

man,i have been trying to tell Ian about the bad camera cut aways for over a month now.. i seriously hope it gets fixed.

Last year it was just the field goal camera that cuts away, but now they did it for every single play.
This must be fixed.

This happens on every single play now, which is so annoying.
What bothers me so much about it, is that there is just no reason for any camera cutaways like this. It doesn't look like Sunday football on TV, and it adds nothing to the presentation.

When watching football on TV, i don't see the camera cut away during a field goal like this.

It should also be a relatively easy fix to remove it, so if Ian doesn't get rid of these camera cutaways on field goals, and after each play, it just makes this that much more frustrating.

If visiting and posting here at OS is important to you, you'd be doing yourself a big favor by moving along and avoiding this section of the forum. You've made your point, loud and clear. Nothing else really needs to be said.

the demo is great and i like the new style.

guys complaining about the code,idk whats wrong but gamestop told me to wait till 9:00 yesterday on PS3.until i saw some dude on my friends list playing madden,i tried the code and it worked before 9:00.

Re: Madden NFL 10 Demo Available, Post Impressions Here

Can someone who is a loser like me (

) check the game speed for a realistic 40 time? Just run backwards with your RB and in roughly 4 and a half seconds you should be 40 some yards..

**warrior310** · 07-24-2009, 08:45 AM

idk why you guys are complaining about whats on the demo,you could tell that alot was missing from it.the full version will be much much better,im upset that it doesn't support 1080p.

Re: What is it about Madden that struggles to make REALISTIC player models?

Originally posted by DarkFudge

I just replayed a game of ALL Pro 2K8 and also watch a recent video someone posted that he created a Nebraska team with and the first thing that came to my mind, especially after watching the video is how human and natural the player models look. They also look so lifelike when running moving, following a play by tracking with their head. Wrapping their arms around the ball carrier to engage in a tackle.

All these things make we wonder, what is it about Madden that fails to nail this important aspect. Are these player models cartoony on purpose for effect?...or is it something that they are limited by lack of technology? Or do you think EA feels their player models animate and look superior?

Curious on what you guys think....please, mature discussion on this only

I read 2 sentences of this post, and let me guess, will you be the guy who says "EA should learn a thing or 2 from Backbreaker and use their player models"

Honestly I like the way this game looks and im a SIM guy. Some people have to chillout with the nitpicking.

Does the giants and cowboys demo feel smoother to anyone else that the superbowl rematch?
