Madden 10 First Impressions

Post by pounddarock »

I've only played a few games on the demo (Pitt vs Ariz), but so far I am loving what I see. It's tons smoother than NCAA and the animations are much smoother. Many of the complaints I have with NCAA (run stop before tackle, poor blocking assignments, etc.) seem to be much better with Madden. The play seems faster (which it should be in the NFL). I'm usually not as much of a fan of Madden than NCAA, but this game seems very polished.

Plus, with the use of a 31 team franchise online..this could be very cool for the NDL.

This game is fucking legit. I'm still awaiting my code from GameStop that unlocks 5 minute quarters but i think EA finally got shit right. The graphics, physics, speed, *tackles*...everything is fucking awesome. They also added some really nice presentation into the game including a halftime show. There is also a fumble mini-game but I am not quite sure what that entails since I have not seen a fumble yet.

My only gripe about the game is the playcalling screen. Instead of looking like NCAA's, it is just 1 horizontal bar with 3 plays on it and you have to keep scrolling. I felt lost most of the time but maybe it will grow on me.

I've been playing this demo since last night (thank you gamestop!) The game IS legit...I really hope there will be enough guys to run a league of sorts here. And by the way...I LOVE THE PLAYCALLING SCREEN. It is so much easier and simple than NCAA!

I am down for it, I have not picked up Madden in a while, but if we can get a 32 team dynasty going, that would be really cool!

From gamestop...yes. They'll give you an access code on a card for you to put into the redeem codes in the PSN store.

I’m torn. I’ve seriously considered getting Madden this year. But I’m not sure I could stay interested in two football games.

I pre-ordered it a week or so ago on-line. I guess I should check to see if they e-mailed me the code.

Anyone want to let me try and leach the demo off them? I'm sick of Gamestop and their BS, I will not buy games from them again...
