    Re: Madden NFL 11 Demo Roundtable

    I am skipping buying madden 11. I am not excited about this year's game. Maybe the reviews will tell me something different, but I doubt it.

      LoL, EA has to know what they are doing, honestly, this is crazy. I love madden and often overlook the flaws but the guys doing this review only confirmed what I thought from the 1st trailer and things headed for madden this year. Stale and repetitive. I don't think i'll skip playing the game but it just won't be the same. I think madden 12 be the 1, I mean how long can this lame trend continue. They know what they are doing, they have to.

        this doesn't sound good?

        I'm still buying but this roundtable pretty much confirms that Madden is back to being lazy. And why not Backbreaker sucks and 2K turned in their man card.

          Anyone else find Chris's statements in the review really annoying? According to him, you're either a Madden fan or you're a "blind" *****. No in between, like you know, people who actually hate the direction of the game for good reasons.

          But even saying that, you know Madden 11 is in trouble when a guy of Chris's caliber (a person who really really WANTS to like Madden) hands out sharp criticisms of the game. And not any criticisms, but ones that directly target one of Madden 11's major features - locomotion.

            Well the Human D Pass rush can be tuned a little in a patch along with tuning the AI QB a little bit not to get rid of the ball every little time you get near him to sack him. Both of these can be patched if enough people complain about to EA before the first patch.

                For MAdden11, all they (EA) needed to do was add GAMEFLOW as a DLC to MADDEN10; charge us $10, and continue with the adaptation of real time physisc to Madden12. if you have played NCAA11 and have run the ball with this locomotion thing; you still see alot of those cheesey break tackle moves from Madden10; and you can take this to the bank that Madden11 has the same. No really new innovation for Madden11. Ncaa11 looks great, because they always run a year behind Maddens engines. This year, they are on even par; Telling me, next year is going tobe the big year for Madden. Get ready to be disappointed in Madden11. Watch all those videos from E3, and they all look pretty much like Madden10; except 'gameflow', with sprinkles of locomotion. Remember, locomotion is only played on offense; everything else is the exact same.

                  Obviously a lot of this quote is wrong, but this part especially, i'm not sure if you can even speak for Ncaa as apparently you haven't played. Lol at the Madden forums, c'mon people.

                  Check out the bad angles and arm tackles, how does locomotion not make a big difference?

                    i got a very negative vibe reading these impressions. it feels like you two are holding back for some reason. like, holding back a lot of "i don't like this game" type of stuff. i'm going to shelve these impressions and see what people think of the final product.
                    My score for Madden 13: 4.5/10

                    3 points for graphics, 1 point for the passable commentary, and a half point for the boxart. I can give no further points since the all over the place gameplay would ruin it anyway.

                      Playing as a D-Lineman is an exercise in frustration. If you thought it was tough to get to the QB in NCAA11, you haven't seen anything yet. The rewritten line AI works great by eliminating suction blocks, but it is down right impossible to sack the QB. If you manage to get past your offensive line assignment, be ready for the opposing QB to magically ditch the ball as your defender is draped all over him -- every single time.
                      Wow. Just wow. Same issue as last year. Wonderful.

                            It was a live stream, but he recorded it. He played 2 games.

                            http://www.ustream.tv/recorded/8465229 - It ain't the best quality though.

                              So glad I picked NCAA this year. No stale madden for me.

                                Same here.

                                The impressions lead me to believe even more that I made a good choice in getting NCAA and skipping Madden this year.
