Madden 10 Demo Impressions

[killgod]

Some more...


Giants had a 7 point lead with 30 secs to go....so they squibbed...and I had it on their 45 with 25 secs to go. Not smart...

I've not gotten used to the QB sack avoidance feature, I feel the vibration but haven't mentally programmed myself to flick the stick. (that sounds hawt...)



While I'm probably suffering from 'new football game syndrome' right now. I'm gonna state the following...

-This game is miles ahead of 09, just so much more than the usual Madden cycle.
-This game is the best football game I've ever played (solely regarding the actual gameplay)....makes NCAA look like shit (only played the demo of 10)
-Madden is back.

I don't think I believe this because the game is new, I believe you should play it yourself to form your own opinion, but seriously, next gen Madden is finally here, no doubt about it.

BTW I'm not hunting for bugs, I'm just playing the game





Edit


As for the kicker thing I mentioned. Tynes is only a 66 overall....so he's one of the shittier kickers in the league, so I'd be interested to see the CPU try from that distance a few more times with him.

YOUR LYING!!!!

By your you mean you're.

Followed by ...

Someone aced english class.

Wait do you mean i should go try and enter my code in right now? *Serious*

Just saying.


Can't wait for the demo. Looking forward to playing it a few times, probably liking it, then going to the forums to see it picked apart.

Like the demo, but need to get used to the slow speed. Ive played both demos and its very odd to me that the Steelers, Cards, and Cowboys playbooks all have a wildcat formation. I hope its just for the demo. That said, I turned it off to play NCAA. ;)

Killgod. Thank you for making my morning wonderful.

Killgod. Thank you for making my morning wonderful.

No problem.

I'm sure some guys will nitpick the shit out of the game, like you said.

I've always been vocal about my displeasure of the game (recalling MM of course) but adembroski was telling the truth the whole time.

The dev team for this game finally got away from the David Ortiz era of Ringbuilder bullshit.

It's really a different game, but I'd be very surprised if overall, the vsn'ers

a) don't like it
b) prefer ncaa over madden



If anyone wants me to 'test' something in the DAL/NYG demo, just message me. My boss is on vacation and I'm working remotely at a different office on a project....so I told them I was sick and voila....free sick day that nobody will notice.

[killgod]

p.s. in the DAL/NYG demo you can make Dallas the home team, but you still play in the snow at Giants Stadium. lulz.

[Point Blank]

I'm about to play this bad boy.

[killgod]

I'm not a fan of the wildcat being in every team's playbook. I mean I'm sure more teams will run it this year but to have an entire formation given to a team who may have never used it... BOGUS!

The Boys have just 3 plays out of wildcat.

Barber takes the snap...,.and Jones motions out of the left slot

Plays are
-Jet Sweep to Jones
-Fake to Jones, HB power to the right
-Fake to Jones, stretch to the left


I ran them both successfully and unsuccessfully.



Speaking of running....on 3rd and 12 Bradshaw took a draw play through the middle for 15 yards. cut through my CPU defenders like nothing.

Also, sideline interaction still has the occasional fuck up, but is much much better.

[Point Blank]

justin tv that shit?!?!?!

I will in a bit, I'm still tired as hell..lol.

My first deep pass was off of Fitz's hands and into Boldin's..lol.

This shit is way to slow, I'm not liking that.

[Point Blank]

The presentation is pretty sick so far.

[Bomberooski]

I wouldn't know because I'm sitting here waiting for YOU to justin.tv that shit.

5k mfers!

A little justin.tv of the Madden demo wouldn't suck at all right now.

[Point Blank]

It feels like the speed button on my controller is button with some players. Speed will definitely be a huge factor once again.

[Point Blank]

I'll stream after I'm done with this game and take a shower.

[killgod]

I don't even have the demo yet as a PS3 guy without a game code (can't get one in Canada and haven't won one yet ). I just want to know if I will be able to play with that stuff when I do get the demo.

You can't change that stuff in the demo.

Played a lil this morning, have to get used to the speed.

Great game though.
