            I don't know if I'd want to toy with Broken Tackles if I thought the running back's made bad decisions. Doesn't Madden already have too many broken tackles as is? (I haven't played much Madden in years so this may be a very old issue that's been resolved).

            My issue with running is I got to the RB way too soon. I like to play the line (insert jokes here about the lack of challenge. But it's what I like to play. I prefer trying to get to the QB) and I seem to somehow have a knack for stuffing the RB behind the line (I don't claim to be a great Madden player at all, but this is the one thing I actually know how to do in the game. Or maybe it's just too easy to do in the game).

            So by raising run block, I made it harder for me to get through the line and harder for my AI teammates. As a result, no matter what decisions the RB made - whether good or bad - the holes were there and they took them.

            100 was a little much, but I purposely made it high to see if I would see a difference. I definitely did.

            But, I think it's all about recognizing what you do too well and limiting it. Perhaps, for you, it's raising broken tackles because you have a knack for hitting backs in the right spot. I don't. I'm terrible at tackling and routinely miss guys even without mashing the Dive button. I just suck so raising BT would probably make me useless with the controller.
            "It may well be that we spectators, who are not divinely gifted as athletes, are the only ones able to truly see, articulate and animate the experience of the gift we are denied. And that those who receive and act out the gift of athletic genius must, perforce, be blind and dumb about it -- and not because blindness and dumbness are the price of the gift, but because they are its essence." - David Foster Wallace

              Still not able to locate the Madden13 demo for the 360, I tried the route shown on the first page but still no luck. Anyone else have this issue? any suggestions? Thanks.

                While playing on All-Madden, with default sliders (most likely my mistake?), the only thing really annoying me in this demo is the poor AI lead blocking decisions. I'll be running a stretch right with Gore, and my FB is in perfect position to seal the edge on the outside... Then cut back inside and block a LB that's not even close to making the tackle.

                Other than that, kickoff and punt return blocking is amazing now. I'm averaging somewhere around a 25% Kickoff Return for TD ratio, using Return Middle.

                  FBs appear to have blocking priority set for MLB then olb. not only on stretch plays but if the d brings a safety into the box on a blitz the FB tends to ignore the safety and pick up the MLB on runs up the middle. I do however like the pulling guard blocking ai. they tend to kick or seal when appropriate.

                    Good luck with that in regards to the EBAY thing. People are just plain crazy. I put a few bids in on the 360 one. Willing to pay a little extra but it's now up to $255 bucks. Not only that but you would get it probably Friday. Why not just pay $25 for the EA ticket and you could be playing it on Saturday.

                      Yes I agree with the Season Ticket from EA and ability to play it Friday, I am not all the pressed to go out and break the bank to have a game 4 days early.

                        the return blocking is too good. Ive had waaaay too many untouched KR/PR Td's on All Madden or All Pro.

                        agree. not at all pressed to go get the game 4 days early unless it was the hard copy of the game. since its not. 8 days it is.

                          That's weird. I've had to fair catch every punt return I've done.

                            I know they said they added a bunch of features to the gameplay but it feels like m12 to me, am I the only one who feels that way?

                              For me, the gameplay felt a little bit the same in terms of the issues it still has but it felt worse at the same time because I haven't gotten use to the new things involved.
