Jay Cutler just threw a 70 yard bomb. Overthrew Olsen by a mile but the safety was able to get to it. For some reason he didnt go for the pick, but the problem is that I didn't step into the throw at ALL. This needs to be fixed, saw the same thing with Tony Romo in the video a couple months back.

As far as the demo, I can see where they improved but the special teams is just awful, no blocking on punt returns. I'm not a fan of the broadcast view before a play, it interrupts the whole flow of the game. And the pre-play audibles messed me up and will take time getting used to. Other than that, a pretty solid game I will be getting. Also, is it just me or is there NO commentating in the demo?____________________________________Orlando Magic

Pastapadre has stated he thinks this demo is worse than what was shown at E3, so this must be a pretty early build. Also, throwing it out there that there is spectate mode so you can watch the new broadcast cameras.Have an awesome day!!Comment

turf does not look beautiful.... everything is a glimps being this a demo much isn't going to changeSome observations
Game is beautiful! Loving the colours!
Hitting is much smoother
Don't like the qb shuffling from side to side (it's way too fast)
Some transitional animations from huddle to line of scrimmage are very awkward
Some replay angles close up show horrible Jogging animations
Turf and jerseys look beautiful
Passing game seems improved
Running game feels very similar to NCAA 12
That's all for now!Comment

The QB speed and scrambling is very annoying. I was thoroughly rnjoying the demo until this play.
Blitzing through the middle with Clay Matthews, steps over a cut block (nice) running straight at Jay Cutler (nice) Jay the rapidly takes off to the right of Clay avoiding the sack (hmm, slightly annoying) Clay chases him down, Jay breaks his tackle (are you kidding), Jay then drives a 2 man tackle over the 1st down line (this is a joke right?)
QB's are not RB's. Address this issue! And as stated before, stop having lineman block oncoming defenders with so much forces, that they push them to the ground. Hate being taken out of every play when I'm rushing with Clay. He racked up 15 sacks last season, and he spends the majority of downs on the floor!!
On a more positive note, I love the balance of the game, and also the new kicking meter. My games normally pan out around 10 - 7 sort of score. Which is probably around a half with full 15 minute quarters. Which I love! Far too many times, I would end games with 40 - 30 types of scores! And for once im not racking up 99% power every time I kick! Is nice to see.Comment

That is correct, the demo build is from early May I believe since it takes 2 months to get it through Sony and Microsoft for approval. This was before any major tuning was done. Demo builds are there to show off the bells and whistles and aren't completely representative of the final product.Comment

What do you guy's think the online speed setting will be??? Could you change the speed in online games in year past!! This is the deal breaker for me.. any comments would be appreciated!!Comment

Re: Madden NFL 12 Demo Available Now, Post Impressions Here (360)
Then I guess you won't be buying it as they're not going to have the speed setting be adjustable online. It's a subjective thing and just because one person thinks it should be "Slow" and "45" doesn't mean that's what the other person thinks it should be. It will be a static setting....and it should be. I don't play the game at the default speed setting but if you're going to play online with millions of other people, you need to accept that a universal setting has to be chosen when it comes to stuff like that.Comment

I own a PS3 and I haven't played it yet, but after watching the game footage why can't EA deliver a clean passing system? Why do QB's look like they aren't even throwing a good ball. It comes off their wrist and the motion is junk. Besides Vick and maybe a couple of other scrambling QB's why are they so FAST?
That's so unrealistic, I shouldn't have to designate a guy to QB spy every possession! This opens up a Wideout or HB that wont be guarded! I hope I can retract these statements once I play it, What does everyone else think?Comment

Re: Madden NFL 12 Demo Available Now, Post Impressions Here (360)
After a couple of games I am really starting to like it. You really start to fear the opposing teams best rusher. Peppers was killing me and I found myself looking for him as soon as I dropped back. Can't wait to play with my Ravens! As I said before the graphics are great it's just the camera seems to far back. Maybe it's the stadium but I will be playing on the zoomed camera.
Also fix the kicking. Everytime I try and push the A button the second time it does nothing.Comment

Re: Madden NFL 12 Demo Available Now, Post Impressions Here (360)
That's fine and I understand that it's going to be a universal setting.. So do you think it will be set on the "normal setting that it is now or do you think it will be on slow??Comment

Re: Madden NFL 12 Demo Available Now, Post Impressions Here (360)
I had high hopes for this game. After the demo, I'm not buying this. I'll wait to see if these issues were resolved in the final game and maybe buy it late. But you lost me, EA. The gameplay is just not good enough.Comment
