Well first off I would say I enjoyed the demo but only thing I think needs tuning is the physics system. I understand the build we are playing is not the final version but its something that still needs to be worked and I hope they did on the final version. Sometimes the physics looks really good and sometimes it likes damn near cartoonish. I agree with one of the members on the board about some tackles the players are just bashing together not even rapping up and tackling I've seen it a couple of times already.

Well that really sucks.

Yeah well we have been waiting for awhile so i guess awhile longer wont hurt haha

It's probably worth mentioning that Sony currently has a big press conference going on right now at Gamescom, and plans to update their blog with news from that right after it ends. I'm guessing the store publish won't be too far behind.

I like the game. I'll probably buy the game. That being said...

I would like the CPU to put 8,9 guys in the box if I'm running great. I want to see more pressure from the CPU and human teams. QBs sit in the pocket for way too long. And unbelievably, their quarterbacking is still not great. If a CPU has that much time to go through reads, he should be tearing me up. At the very least create something with his feet. That being said coverage holds for way too long. And I guess that helps offset the time in the pocket, but still. Down field is way too crowded on early downs. Receivers need to be more aggressive while the ball is in air. I want to see realistic placement on throws. Not just throw it to where he is. I want to see automatic placement. Back shoulder throws, and such. Could we possibly add 400+deflection animations from DBs? All I seem to see it swats and interceptions. I want to see INTs when DB jumps a route, or happens to be in the zone. Rarely do you see a 5'11 180 DB make the more aggressive move on the ball. Big WRs and TEs need to use their size more. And I want to see an honest to God pocket develop where there's consistent pressure from the outside. I want to see tackles and guards pushed into the QB's face/back/whatever. That's my rant grammar be damned.

Decent demo.

At least I finally figured out what this screen was all about, I had been trying to figure this out ever since Trey showed us this in May and the Madden developers never really told me.

What's it for??

One thing that seems to be missing from most EA games, Madden included is the feeling that each game means something and is different. Week 1 is different than Week 15. The "in game experience" is virtually the same regardless of who you are playing and what Week it is. Same with NCAA. If you went over to a buddy's house and walked in midgame, there is no way you would know if it was Play Now, Preseason, Week 1, Week 10 or Week 17. That's an issue for immersion.

This is why madden needs like a weekly downloadable game specific play now mode....I love doing the franchise but it never mirrors real life action, drama, injuries, what you are playing for... Every week they could release a team specific game where the commentary is more tailered to the teams playing, updated rosters and vibe of the week. I would gladly pay more for a feature like this.

With you on everything but the presentation. It needs to be alot tighter and more authentic at this stage of the series.

I love the presentation but I kinda just skip it after awhile but overall M13 look to be great just gotta wait till aug 28.........madden 14 will be astonishing lol

I have to go to work at 8 pm and it's going to take like an hour for me to download so they need to hurry the hell up.

I played on all madden two games. One as the 49ERS and one as the REDSKINS. I LOST BOTH. I played a lot of 2 man under out of the nickel formation and used a lot of 3-4 sting pinch man blitzes when the cpu was coming out in a 2 wr set.

It was hard tackling on all madden and the hit stick didn't work for my 90 HP SS. I'm gonna play it on the next difficulty down in a little while and give my impression on that difficulty mode.

The game was pretty good. I had no user pics and was in position a couple times. I turned auto strafe off and lined up for the int and pressed Y but I didn't get the pic. Could be because I was out of position or ALL MADDEN.

I DO NOT like the menu that comes up on the bottom right when I'm strafing pre play. DO NOT!

I liked sharing my game on twitter. I thought that was very cool. Play action was not working for me but that could have been many factors. I was just trying out a lot of different plays so I didn't get the time to diagnose everything.

I passed out of shotgun 95% of the time and didn't have a lot of success. Could be because I'm not used to the game yet and wasn't paying attention all to well, or ALL MADDEN is that tuff. I don't know yet.

Curls worked pretty effectively. I only ran a couple draws out of shotgun but I got stuffed.

I'm eager to play this on a lower level now that I see what ALL MADDEN is like.

I LOVE the madden 10 controls and set them after the first play. I HATE the strategy pad.

I thought that the new animations were pretty sweet and like that real time physics is now in the game. It's about time. Didn't get a chance to see a bunch of new catch animations but I only played two games. I'll report more later.

The Game seems pretty sweet and I will be getting it the week it comes out.

How did you share your game on twitter?.It did not give me that option in the game I played...

Is the PS3 ready yet....... uh..........

Nope.. I think we've been pretty darn patient up to this point, too.

Geez maybe by 3pm et it will be available for ps3

First time DLing a demo from the PSN? They usually update in the evening between 4-7 PM EST. That said this isn't the pine for the PS3 demo thread. It is the impressions thread. So lets keep it to impressions going forward. Thanks.

Ok i played on pro redskins vs seahawks - i beasted the hawks 28-0! The only thing that i seen so far is the right side of the def, Big Red had 5 sacks, and for the redskins i had kerrigan on the right side he had 10 tackles and 5 sacks, so i think there is a glitch on the right side, I will test it on all-pro tonight, seems like the slants are pretty much covered up, cbs are still dumb and play behind the slot wr, but some how they use turbo spd to swat a pass away...

the running on pro is just too ez, hand off to the side and ur pretty much got 10+ YRDS, because of the blocking and people tripping over each other... Also if you spread out your def line, and use the rolb you can move him back alittle and to the right it opens up the middle to run straight down the gut and sack the qb with ez.... could be the difficult settings at pro tho...

will test it on all pro tonight after work....

Has anyone seen improvements regarding the challenge system? The IE probably makes it even harder for the CPU to come up with the correct call but I hope it's not still completely broken.

Is it just me or does the motion blur and the new lightning sytem looks bad and washed out in the demo?

What's it for??

It's for one of the video tutorials of the game, the main one when you get to the menu.
