Madden NFL 11 Demo Available Now, Please Post Impressions Here

[Dax(FlowLyfe)]

Dont like it. Its the same madden with what seems is a stripped down version of locomotion that NCAA 11 has. NCAA's locomotion is fluid and realistic, this demo feels like the same madden movement that only takes longer to get up to full speed.

The only thing i like, is the games graphics look better, more HD than 10's.

Same tackle animations, dissapointed to hear Gus Johnson sounding robotic, audio splicing is extremely noticable.

I seriously wish they just cloned NCAA 11 and put NFL teams on it.
NCAA is in almost every way superior to this game.

Not sure why this is happening either. But every time I play NCAA it does the samething.

For me, this has made the demo absolutely unplayable.

I have to agree with you on this bro. I like the old way better. I know the madden Dev team was trying something new. But I feel it didn't come out good. I really hope they can change it back to the old style with a patch update.

I cannot understand why they would change the pre play adjustments after all these years. We got to learn a whole new system that seems clunky and takes longer.

Well after playing NCAA almost non-stop since it came out, I would have to say madden almost looks cartoonish with the player builds. It is like watching bobble head dolls the players are so skinny, but the helmets so big. Gameplay just feels off, im not exactly sure what about it I don't like, could be because of playing so much NCAA, it just doesn't feel right. Graphically this game doesn't really look like what you would see on the field sundays. I love the presentation, but going back to the players I just saw a replay of Sanchez rolling out and he looked like a high school freshman who hadn't ever been in a weight room yet. The ball travels way too fast for the overall speed of the game as well.

Two words that really kill presentation. Chris Collinsworth. I just heard his rant about not wanting to block these guys and got sick to my stomach.

Also the kicking reminds me of all the old EA sports games, the 90s maddens, and the old PGA games.

For example, it takes 3 button presses to make a D-line adjustment instead of 2 and the time to do that isn't there to barely make one adjustment let alone any more.
