I'd say you spell out "don't be a dick" cause there are some new folks in the league.

It still is, but at least it's new.

Yeah, this was the first thing I thought of when I heard Jim Nantz at the start of the game.

I agree.



It's pretty easy to run back kicks this year. I've returned 3 on all-pro and 2 on all-madden.

Ginn and Banks.

I really like the demo. Love how you can't really bounce off some defenders laying on the ground and other realistic running features. Some of the gang tackles and pile ups are nice to see as well.

Love that kicking is back to the stick.

Only gripe I really had was that the AI will still take awful angles to catch a guy breaking away. When they could of easily caught him by just taking a cut off angle instead of looking like a 3rd grade soccer player chasing the ball.

Oh and I loved that my first play was an 80 yard bomb TD with RG3 lol

After two quick games on All-Pro this is how I feel -

Speed kind of feels like speed. To me, guys with 'get away from the cops speed' should blow by defenders, but they rarely do it. Part of that I think is perception, 6 yards IRL is a lot farther than 6 yards in Madden.

I really like the organic feel of the physics engine. I only saw a few weird (and often hilarious) collisions. In one replay Matt Flynn was giving Fletcher a hardcore blowjob!

Sydney Rice made a stupid, one handed catch and Mike Williams tipped the ball up, ran 5 or 6 yards and caught it. Both of those plays made me sick, but I suppose they are possible, hopefully they don't happen all the time. The picks I threw were my own fault, for once!

On defense I still don't think the edge rushers in the 3-4 get enough pressure. I agree with Doom that usering seems to be a step or two behind, though that might be a recationary thing.

Graphics/Presentation is pretty nice. I didn't see any 'jaggies' like in NCAA 13 and the framerate barely dropped at all. Once thing I didn't like was lighting. Depending on where the light source is the entire defense looks like black blobs because of the shadowing. Oh, and commentary was not existent until I paused the game in the middle of Q2. That happened to me all the time in M12, looks like that bug is still there.

i noticed that the team ratings on the deoms compared to team ratings u find online are diffferent as well anyone else?

also was looking at the controls looks like they brought the sprint button back to madden good thing to i always hold the trigger anyways lol at of old madden habit.

really enjoy throwing the ball had alot of success with it in madden 12 so im guessing with the way they changed things or atleast im hoping that it will lead to another good year of passing in madden

What teams are playable in the demo? I'm guessing due To the banter more then two teams are available.

giants vs 49ers redskins vs seahawks

Sprint button has always been there. It can be toggled on or off.

ya but last year it wasnt automatic off now its on dont know why they alwasy go back and fourth on it every year

Fake punt with the 49ers punter is stupid easy. Got it 4 times in a row :S

RG3 is crazy fast and Accurate on her this is crazy !!! , and how do you fake punt ???

Did they take out the surprise onside kick?

I ing hate kicking with the stick.

Yeah I think surprise onside is gone.

Been out of town for work since Sunday. Coming back tomorrow night and ready to try the demo! Then I head out sunday for a month. I am bringing my xbox and hope to hook it up to the internet in the hotel though, so I can get my games in.

The stick doesn't so much bother me as the meter being spastic as all hell.
