Madden 11 = FAIL

I swear he had like barely 400 posts yesterday

[Tengo Juego]

It doesn't trigger nearly as much as it should and imo not as much as last year so I agree with him that it was toned down.

I dont use "tone down" the same way I would use "dumb down."

gang tackling? add on tackles? where the fuck did it go?

This never existed in Madden 10. Theres a few animations that allow for 2-3 men tackles(that aren't pro-tak), but they're not dynamic or physics based like they should be, nor do they frequently occur.

IDK, pro-tak was interpreted the wrong way if you asked me. When we heard "it will allow for 8 man gang tackles" we all thought of millions of different scenarios where we would see large numbers in gang tackles. But it essentially was limited to the rugby scrum. Which is cool in the right situations. But no way does that happen as much as it does in NCAA and Madden.

Well now they dont seem to happen at all. hello madden 09

EA for the lost. This was the case in NCAA and seems to be the case in Madden 10. The game plays better with auto sprint on and auto strafe on. I was wondering why EA had those two on by default. Try a few games with the two on, than try a few with the two off. You will notice a huge difference.

So is Shonne Greene ridiculously overrated in the game or is it only because it was the computer?

Every time he got the ball he would break at least one tackle.

I was playing on All-Pro and he was doing the same thing.

How so? I played one half with them on and was done.

Some of you guys make me laugh.

Could be fucking Scarlett Johansenn, but I mean, she doesn't have 3 tits so its awful.

[Epidemik]

Mark Sanchez looks stoned out of his fucking mind when they do those sideline cut scenes

NCAA 11 must be like fucking Sarah Gilbert then.

[Hitman]

blah to all the whining... the game feels good, the control is nice, the passes have an arc to them, the sidelines and back of the endzone catches are excellent... this is still madden... if you don't like this years game, you never liked the game...

[BigBucs]

I cant get used to the fucking strategy pad. The game would be great if I didnt feel lost before each snap. I hate this shit.

Im actually use to it now except for the occasional hiccups where the pad lags for a second and I end up doing something I didn't mean to b/c of how fast you have to be when your clicking the pad like left(to open) left to pick my D-line and then wherever i want them to shift

(occasionally the pad will lag when coming up and if your doing it by memory and not really looking at the pad you could be doing something completely differnt than what you intended)

Hope thats fixed before the release or if people who d/l the game already know post it here

[Hitman]

the pad sucks on the 360 version... i didn't bother downloading the demo on ps3 yet but i'm sure it sucks on that too.. the d-pad on the 360 controller blows anyway and having to do anything but navigate menus on the thing is fucking retarded... i read there will be a post-launch patch that lets you go back to the old controls, so i have my fingers crossed for this..
