Um - did you play them both? It doesn't take much time to realize which one looks and play a better game of football to me and apparently many others. The NCAA game nailed the atmosphere of really bringing you into the game and unfortunately I didn't get that feeling at all playing the Madden demo.

Re: Madden NFL 11 Demo Available Now, Please Post Impressions Here

I have a feeling the Stratgey pad is going to be the main complaint people will have with madden 11 when it comes out. I don't know if they can revert back to the old controls are not. But I think this is something Ian and Phil needs to look into doing if they start getting a ton of complaints about it. I have to agree with people that on the D side of the ball the strategy pad is almost usless to you because the AI will snap the ball a few seconds after getting to the line of scrimmage. But the Strategy pad on the offense side of the ball ain't that bad so long as you ain't using the accelarated clock. But overall if Ian and Phil would work on fixing the Strategy pad issue then the game overall is good.

I've cut some slack to Madden 11's demo, but when compared to NCAA 11's demo.....well there is NO COMPARISON. NCAA 11's demo was a blast to play as soon as it fired up. Madden feels slow, clunky, awkward and NOT FUN when you compare the two.

A demo should make you WANT to buy the retail version, Madden's demo makes me want to delete it!

NCAA 11 for me and shortly NHL 11 and FIFA 11 will be out and Madden will not be missed.

from what i got to play at my friends house over the weekend. the retail is way more polished. and the dbs play better. the demo feels closer to ncaa than it does the final version of madden.

No actually a very nice toe drag for a completion.

Enjoying the stadium specific sounds too. Like being at a Jets game. Been to plenty since my buddy has seasons.

Well the first 5 or 6 games I played with it I hated it as well. But once you get use to it, it's no different than the old way really. I still see no real reason to change it up though.
