Cannot wait to play the demo tomorrow!
One more day peeps! I can't wait to see what Madden 25 has to offer. I still might be waiting to get for the Xbox One though. Depends on the demo.
Its been a while since I have been this excited for Madden to drop, much less the demo. Not sure why, but I have a good feeling about this year. :)
:+1: I'm going to buy Madden this year. I was planning on waiting until the PS4 version drops but NCAA isn't doing it for me. Ill only stay active in the OD I'm in but don't see myself playing my offline dynasty anymore. The demo and season ticket will tell me more but it would have to be really bad for me not to buy.

I made a fake facebook to get through. I can post the link for the actual plays and not the facebook link. This should work.

I'm in Toronto and brought my PS3. First hotel I've seen with the new HDTVs and they blocked the input stuff! Most of the hotels I have been to have been lazy and not bothered when they switched over. Googled it and figured out disconnecting the phone line in the back of the TV would help and it worked! I'm up on my PS3 but haven't hooked up to the hotel light WIFI. Not sure if I will try it. I don't know if they can figure out if I download 2 GB worth of a demo and I remember setting up some of the PS3 internet settings was a pain in the ass. I don't know if I want to mess with that area. If I don't I will have to wait until late Thursday to try the new demo.
I did play an M13 demo game and I am really rusty. My passing skills suck worse than normal.
when time does the demo drop ? xbox that is.
It was out before 6 AM I guess. Get it here: http://marketplace.xbox.com/en-US/Pr...5-d802454189c5
I'll download the demo tonight when I get home from work but unless I am COMPLETELY BLOWN AWAY. I'll wait to PS4 and then confirm it is a full blown game and not something watered down.
Commence Download NOW!!! I'm Downloading the Demo get some early impressions up in a few. Can't wait!
Any one else with the demo right now ? Too bad online wasn't available with the teams ha that would be sick.

Downloading now on my PS3. I have said all along that I expect this will be Madden 13 gameplay mixed in with overpowered NCAA 14 read option running and NCAAesque softzone D. However, I did enjoy 13 last year so I will probably be able to look over some of the issues. I heard some of the sliders were removed. I just don't get why???
I will hopefully be playing in the next 30 mins so I hope to report back soon.
I'm about to start playing but I must say that I love the Robert Craft video (even though I despise the Pats). It's a nice touch IMO.
Game 1: Seahaws 10 vs Packers (me) 17 on all pro
I chose this game because I wanted to see how the read option would be from the cpu.
visuals are stunning (players and stadiums look great)
default game speed is far too fast for my liking
commentary is better but there are still a lot of dead spots
I see they added the NCAA guess the play feature
Rb's seem pretty over powered with the truck-stick (I watched Lynch truck-stick 3 linemen
my first run from Lacy a 46 yard carry on a hb counter... overall running the ball is very easy
penalties are non-existent on default (zero penalties in my first game
the stiff arm is just way, way, way, way too overpowered
* Rice stiff-armed SIX players on one pass play!!!!
ball hawk feature works very well!
the crowd is great and the chants sound wonderful
I have seen a lot of drops by my wr's
zone d is fairly soft and a lot of post routes are poorly covered
the audible system is much improved IMO
there just aren't enough stat overlays for my liking (NCAA is far superior)
I like the sideline reporter but only heard her once
halftime show is not a show... it's pointless
infinity 2.0 seems a lot more crisp than last year
play action is money if it's set up well
haven't really seen any fatigue in this game
celebrations after td's are pretty cool
uniform degradation is far better in madden than it is in NCAA
the qb read option is guaranteed for big yards
I struggled to generate a pass rush all game. Sims even commented on it
route mirroring is still alive and well in Tiburon football... :(
the Seahawks had more injuries in the game (3) then I have seen in any one game on NCAA 14.
player of the game still screwed up... a defender with an int and i tackle is the mvp
Overall if you love D may may not enjoy this game at times. It is totally geared towards offense, specifically the run game.
I had a lot of fun playing the game but there is nothing breakthrough about this game. It's your standard Tiburon offering.
Forgot to mention the rushing stats...
Lynch 14 carries for 93 yards and a td (6.6 ypc) with 9 broken tackles and well over 20 stiff arms/trucks
Lacy 13 carries for 107 yards (8.2 ypc)
A strange stat.... Seattle had 22 pancakes and I had 3!!!
there are also very few assisted tackles in this game (I had 4 and the cpu had none)
In game two I put the gameplay on very slow and it feels so much better.
I also put injuires and fatigue to 70... SF has already lost their first two rbs halfway through the first. These sliders totally work.
It's nice to see that now all of the players in the starting lineups are recognized rather than the key players
Running with Ray Rice feels entirely different than running with Lacy. It feels like driving a tank with Rice when he cuts.
