      I'm baffled the more I play regarding the kicking stick. I mean it wasn't that long ago that that the analog kicking meter was a big feature, now we are back to Techmo bowl control?
      Why not just make the kicking meter move slower for kickers with high accuracy and power and fast for worse rated kickers?

      If this was a PC game it would be a 19.99-29.99 add on or expansion pack, not a whole new release.

        Had a few more games and I have to say I'm surprised how well I'm adapting to the strategy pad. Like someone said, it's all those years of instinctively pressing buttons that has to be changed.
        I actually went straight to NCAA11 and back again and didn't find it much of a problem.

        I really liked Madden 10 and this has the potential to be better certainly. I know a lot of people say there won't be that much difference between the demo and retail, but I always seem to notice a big difference. The demos for both NCAA and Madden always strike me as rough, which of course, they are.
        I generally am never impressed by any sports demo. I thought the NCAA11 demo was ok, but not as amazing as many others found. However, I LOVE the final game.

        I don't think Madden 11 will be football gaming heaven, but if it's a more polished version of the demo, then I'll be very happy. Personally.

        Oh, the stadium sounds can be great. Sam Spence pre-game doesn't do much, but Rock n Roll part II? Love it.
        If that feature, along with fight songs, is tuned and polished, like I said, I think it has the potential to have a huge effect on the atmosphere.

          Nope. Triangle and down will not work anymore. For what you are talking about it's now (D-Pad)ANY+(D-Pad)UP+(D-Pad)DOWN.

          Ian says it's better in the long run. I and many others disagree.

            Why are there so many problems with this game?

            1.) Johnson/Collinsworth = by far the worst duo they've had in ages
            2.) Strategy pad is about as intuitive as playing the game by eating the controller
            3.) Rubberband AI still exists
            4.) Players still skate
            5.) GameFlow = glorified customizable Ask Madden
            6.) Awkward crowd noise
            7.) Defensive assignment showing up on field every play, have to hit right trigger to make it go away
            8.) Playing like a drunken fratboy is still the most effective strategy (WOOO ROLLOUT AND THROW ANOTHER BOMB, BRO)

            I want sim football, and I will never get sim football. This makes me sad.

                wow, the opinions are so freakin different.
                how can this be 'worst madden ever, its only a roster update'
                and some others just really like the demo?

                    It feels alot like M10 to me just a fresh coat of paint..I do like Gus thought...deep balls are fun..i did hear Chris call him Tod a few times but im guess they are rehashing there. I miss the burst of speed cause i keep trying to use it,..lol over all i will buy it since my team FINALLY made the cover but that would be the only reason since it seems alot like M10 to me but i guess that means it will like it to. Peace.

                        Whazup with sony and them making the demo avaliable on ps3. Its 7:15est time and its still not out yet. You would think they would want to put it out at the same time as the 360 or even earlier so we can play it as soon as possible. They know people are going to be waiting all day to get their hands on the demo especally a game everyone wants to test out not to mention you have to wait a while for it to download. A game as big as madden should be made avaliable early in the morning. Its not like this is lego batman or something like that. I know psn is free but that dont mean you have to slack and be behind the 360.

                          This is a joke.... I guess we're getting the demo tomorrow.

                          Makes me want to take my old 360 out of the closet and get it modded.

                              Yeah time to get a 360. PSN and PSN+ is a pure failure when it comes to updates.

                                Since I just got a ps3 update to pop up, and the madden game isnt in the stores after I installed it....I'm guessing the demo isnt coming to PS3 until next Tuesday.
