      This is my biggest hope.

      FIFA does a great job at this. I re-created a World Cup Tournament on FIFA 11 that I am playing through right now. When I play Brazil, their forwards are extremely flashy with the ball, and use tons of skill moves to get around me. Just like they do in real life.

      When I play Spain, they pass the ball like crazy, using some precision passing to open up opportunities for Villa and Torres. Just like they do in real life.

      The same cannot be said for the NHL series of years past. Let's hope that changed this year!

        Yeah I've been off live for a year or so now, so my estimation could be off. I remember it being early morning at the very least. hehe Least I was spot on with the PS3 not that it helps you personally since you're on the Xbox. I try at least!

          I think you're in the the right *Realm* of time or pretty close.

                    Well nobody cares what "owns you", I'm saying mainstream appeal, Madden is huge, NHL is barely on the radar. Therefore, there is way more online media, videos, and PODCASTS, of MADDEN.

                      Why do we have to CAPITALIZE MADDEN?

                        Yep, the demo doesn't give me enough time to play the game the way I play the retail version. I like to knock the puck about, take shots from the point and not feel rushed. Out of the box, the game is always streets ahead of the demo anyway.

                        The only thing that the demo will likely confirm is if Rogers Arena is at center ice this year.
