I hate to say it, but I think some people have got a blurred sense of how good 2K5 was. Now it was a great game for many reasons, but I don't think the football was 'great'.

There was no blocking, running the football was extremely difficult, the passing was good, but the defending wasn't.

Don't get me wrong it was good, and a better overall game than Madden 06, but on the field Madden took it for me.

I hate the leg movement when their running that makes it seem so slow and i hate the over the head catch for long balls....fitzgerald fade does not work...otherwise this is a good demo

What skill level is this? That part was skipped over.

You can still strafe with LT as a WR on Pro mode, meaning that you can still get to a spot and jump catch. You can't do that on All-Pro or All-Madden.

Yup...I just had like 5 of my boys come over to play both demos and they all agree with me that the speed of the 1 minute demo is faster then the speed of the promo demo

Even the gameplay is tighter...The pass rush moves are tighter and so is the o-line blocking

But what stands out the most is the speed of the game in the one minute demo

I find myself playing that one a lot more today

And the graphics even look cleaner in that one

Good to see since that is the demo I have been playing ALL day. Actually I lied did watch two episodes of Rescue Me.

Just played the 360 1 minute demo.

Wow. Why even bother releasing a demo with 1 minute quarters? You cannot get any feel for the game. You can't run the ball because if you do the half will end before you get four plays off. You feel rushed and I couldn't even enjoy the cut-scenes after plays because they would kill the game clock.

I would prefer a demo of just ONE, 5 minute quarter, than four, 1 minute ones.

From what I got to experience (which was basically a two-minute drill) I saw some things I liked, but seriously guys, one minute quarters is just annoying and a terrible way to show off the "much improved" gameplay.
