Re: Madden NFL 10 Demo Available, Post Impressions Here

Ian and the entire EA Sports crew........GREAT JOB! This is coming from a NFL 2k5 guy who honestly has not enjoyed Madden NFL over the years. With that said, I can already tell from just playing the demos (360 and PS3) that this year is going to be special. The more I play the demos the more I am coming to love this game!

Thanks for listening!

Despite all of the negative comments on the board lately, this game ROCKS. Can't wait until I see how good Franchise mode will be and the online franchise I will be in also. I am sure that this game will remain in my console for a long time. All of this in one year. Can't imagine how good next year will be.

Ok, these beefs by people are on the money. This is happening way too much in the demo. I don't mind if my TD pass is dropped or caught. I do mind when the perfectly thrown ball by Warner travels through his hands, and through his midsection and drops incomplete behind him. I thought I was through having to deal with that sort of stuff when I left Colecovision Football.

Madden 10 is just lipstick on a pig. The AI is really poor, the collision detection is amateur, what more is there to say. I like the demo all in all, appreciate Ian and his team trying to steer this product in a better direction, will probably buy it used to get my football fix.

Yes I am with you. I know it was a small taste in the demo, but for me this is something I think I will keep in my 360 this time for more then a week. As much as I love playing 2k5, I have to admit that in the back of my mind I was waiting for a true next gen football game that I can enjoy. I clocked in my 60 bucks for madden this year. I am going to roll with it all year ahd try to avoid nipping at little things and blowing it up.

Sometimes I think I mentally take myself out of enjoying games when I read a bunch of I hate when, and look at this video post. I am going to sit back and enjoy :-)

Re: Madden NFL 10 Demo Available, Post Impressions Here

Wow, Madden 10 is a great game. I played about 10+ games of the Madden NFL 10 demo and was blown away by the graphics, the realistic game play, and awesome presntation. Madden is no longer as easy as it used to be, it now involves much strategy and game planning. A lot of people evaluated Madden 10 based off of videos and some even gave early scores of the game, but let me tell you, play the game first! To me, this game is awesome, but if you are skeptical, don't judge the game and say that others are making excuses for EA when you haven't played it yet. To be honest, it took me awhile to get used to the game speed. The first couple of games that I played made me hate the slowed down game speed, but later I adjusted to it, and it feels much more realistic. The game overall FEELS realistic and looks like a game on NBC's Sunday Night Football. Some people have complained about the physics in Madden 10, but they aren't that big of a problem. In fact, they are GOOD, not terrible, and not great. Overall, the demo gave a good taste of what to expect and I'm thinking that this game may surpass Madden 2005 as the best game in the Madden NFL franchise. Hopefully with all of the other additions that were left out of the demo make this game great, so we'll see on August 14th.

Re: Madden NFL 10 Demo Available, Post Impressions Here

I have no idea what your beef is with me, but I'm going to ask you to please get over it and stop with this nonsense. I'm posting my impressions. Either deal with them or put me on ignore so you don't have to read them, I don't really care.

But I'm not about to go round and round with you, nor will I adhere to any of your "suggestions". This is an impressions forum. People post their impressions of the game both good and bad. There are those who are fans of the series and there are those who hate the series. Its up to each individual reader to make their own sound judgment based off of what they read.

I'll post what I feel as I feel it and people can view them how they wish. If they agree fine, if they don't, fine. I really don't care. What I don't care for is someone challenging my opinions/impressions simply because they disagree with them.

With that said, I'm done with this and I'm going to ask that you please stop making me out as some "bad guy" simply for having an opinion that you disagree with.

Thanks and take care...

I thought I explained very clearly what my "beef" was with you. I never called you a bad guy, etc.

It's simply the sheer VOLUME of posts, in addition to the volume of your posts, your "impressions" read no differently than if they were written by the Public Relations Department from EA Sports.

It's great to be enthusiastic, but just like last year it seems like every page of hundred plus page threads has at least one or two posts by you on every single page. Each one HYPING the game. I think it's only fair that new people here know this is exactly what you did for Madden 09. Nothing but gushing, effusive posts about how amazing the game was, like I said, your posts could be written by the EA P.R. department.

We see hundreds of posts of people complaining about "haters" if they say anything negative about Madden whether they're constructive or not. You are the "reverse-*****" lol.

I don't have a problem with anyone's opinion, and every critique of Madden is met with at least a few posts critical of the poster and not the content of the criticism.

It's one thing for someone to say they loved the demo/release, etc. It's another thing for someone like you who posts hundreds upon hundreds of posts each year HYPING the game each year.

Just like last year, your posts read more like spam/advertising for the game than serious impressions or feedback. I know I'm not alone in this opinion. It's nothing personal, but, geez, if someone posted slightly negative impressions of the game over and over on every single page of hundred plus page threads, they would be banned for sure.

I would think your enthusiasm would be tempered just a bit this year after hyping Madden 09 like you were getting paid by the post last year. Only later to tire of the game and praise Madden 09 PS2 as the new be all and end all. Sorry if I'm raining on your parade, but just like last year I can't read a new page on these thread without one or two posts by you. It's supposed to be an IMPRESSIONS thread, not a chance for you to prove your undying love and loyalty for the Madden series on every page.

Sorry, someone had to say it.

All he really has said is that he likes the running game and he helped me with the pass rush by saying about using the l and r sticks to create pressure. Those are good impressions.

Has there been any info on what will be fixed in the final version and the patch? Sorry I haven't been online all day, and don't have time to read through tons of pages.

Re: Madden NFL 10 Demo Available, Post Impressions Here

How many times last season and in the playoffs did we see Larry Fitzgerald jump up on two or more DB's and still come away with the ball. It happens and it should happen in the game. So nobody should be able to outjump the defenders and get the ball. So there are some real instances were a player performs
RC in real life.

Uh, I hate to jump in to this, but it doesn't matter whether or not he praised Madden 09 or even Madden 08. That is how HE felt about the game and he is giving HIS impressions in the correct thread. Regardless to if it sounds like hype or not, that is how He feel. And Madden 09 was the first GOOD game on the next-gen consoles IMO.
