* Fixed crash bug that was introduced that could occur for some PS3 gamers that were using "My Skill" setting.

Lol, I can say that the AM kick meter seems to be the same speed as in AP.

Nice!!!! Perfect day for this to come out!! No Phillies tonight, so I'll have a chance to play some games with the new "fixes"! If what is said in the details is fixed, then this game will be great.

Look for me after 6pm. I should be online. Maybe even a mid afternoon game. I'll see how I feel after I get home from work.

Gonna give that a go on lunch break!

And I also show that they improved kick return blocking...so does that mean more KO returns for TD? We all r averaging 1 a game...

This new kick meter is retarded. Way too slow, back to 55 yd FGs being gimmies again. KO distance is shorter now, and blocking is better. I ran back 3 in my first game.

That's the definition of fixed? lol

Bums complained that they couldn't get any long returns and there were too many touchbacks. Even though the kicking game was finally at its most realistic EA changed it (even though they said they liked it as it was) to please "the masses". Same with the kick meter.

As a hardcore madden player, im so sick of being at the mercy of the "masses" of bums. Just like they changed the default game speed last year.
