    Ok guys..this is what I thought..

    Graphics - Game was simply amazing...stadium looked awesome. The 3D grass looks better than NCAA at this point, and the player models are really sweet. Especially up close after each play. The Bears intro was cool. I noticed that the stadium had an atmosphere about it, and each time Chicago would score the crowd would sing the Bears song. Trust me I heard it alot. (Me= Packers)

    Gameplay - I was hesitant at first seeing that Madden 11 didn't really do anything for me. But the game play is really smooth. I actually think it plays a little bit better than NCAA. It's refreshing to see that zone works in a Madden game, since I play more zone than man. I was able to get some interceptions throughout the three games I played, but I saw zero fumbles. Offensively, the QB moves really well in the pocket now. I felt it was tough to run the ball, but it may be the threshold I was playing on (25,35). It seemed like the hole would close on me fast. One thing I didn't like was the qb scrambling by the CPU. Cutler seemed like Mike Vick at times.

    Overall this is probably the best Madden I have played. I was a real big fan of Madden 10, but this blew it out of the water. I am going to post some vids later.

    Haven't been home to download the demo but the first thing I am doing in game 1 is bringing mathews to the line of scrimmage manualy and loading up with a BOOM hit stick on Cutler.

    Good luck getting through that all-pro offensive line.

    Pretty impressed with only one game played. Graphically, it really looks good. I really like the improvement in the player models and the presentation. As far as gameplay is concerned, I really like the feeling of the game. It seems much more smoother and fluid. I'll get more playing time with it, but I like what I see so far.

    I have enjoyed the demo so far. I find it pretty hard on all-madden (which isn't a bad thing), and the graphics look great. The animations look awesome to me too. I love the way Cutler just slings that ball. Gives me hope for a great Madden. With the Demos usually being weaker than the final product, I am excited to see what EA has in store for us this year.

    One thing I am curious about though, have you guys screwed with game speed?
