The demo is now out for XBOX and later today for the PS3. Please post your review on this game.

I would like to say judging the demo, this is the best Madden that has ever been made. Very realistic and fun. It makes NCAA look like a joke game to a point to where I might trade it in for gears of war 3.

Isn't this said almost every year?

The trouble to me is, they seem to have a habit of taking a few steps back and one forward. They'll remove a few things and add something, or they'll add things that a football game should have never been without.

What time is it available for download? I hope this year is improved. Hopefully the defense has been fixed. I love defensive battles.

The problem is with the engines they use. They never were up to par, nor as realistic as the NFL 2K series on the Sega. I was playing on line when the dream cast came out.

I've never had as much fun on single player mode. But I do like playing multi-player on Madden 11.

I played Braveheart fan a time or two and lost, but that was an off day. :D

Yes. This year (to me) seems like the best year of madden but that is purely opinion based.

NCAA might not be as cool looking etc as Madden but to me the game play is more fun to me. I dont care how great the fans or stadium looks, I want a game this is FUN to play first and foremost.

They also seem to throw in some quirky nuance but never really seem to change the basic game play of Madden. It is time for another major over haul but I doubt it will happen because they have the market cornered. It is cheaper to add vision cone and crap like that then fix the core components of the game.

I love NCAA Football as well. Having the option to build a small school up to respectability is a lot of fun. I also like being able to run college offenses and defenses.

I'm the opposite. I'd rather play Madden than all those gimmick offense and defenses. I also can't stand the players not having names. I know it can be fixed but who wants to rename all the players on all the teams.

I guess if my team (Memphis) was any good I might change my mind. :laugh2:

I don't even know if my old school (Lamar University) is in the game so you have me beat. :D

You can download from someone's roster share that has all the names. Someone takes all the time to edit the rosters for you for free.

Add me if you want I can help you get them. But you should hurry because I'm going to trade in NCAA once I get Madden. lol
