re: Madden NFL 12 demo is NOW AVAILABLE for PS3

My only two complaints from playing one game are that the new kicking meter will suck during online games. Lag will make it difficult to kick. Second, I'm not playing mortal kombat. I do not want to press a series of ten buttons to shift my linebackers or to show blitz. Keep all pre-snap adjustments simple.

Yes I agree with this guy also. Forgot about that

Yeah kicking sucked (however, you can switch to the older view)
And I was extremely confused by the audibling and hurry up defense play switching

The only extra button is the right analog click to make the menu pop up dude.. And I like not having that clutter on the screen. Click stick, up on d-pad, and then one more button to finish the sequence.. a total of 3 buttons. I don't get how that's so bad

The kicking took some time to get used to, I shanked a PAT on accident but once you get used to it, it's fine. It's more challenging and I like it. Punt/kickoff coverage is good. I always felt like I was just one move away from breaking one, but I could never get it

I only played 1 quarter this time, instead of three plays, and I got bored with it. Same shite, different year. PastaPadre actually said it took a step backwards.
and to be totally honest, I was going to buy to play with Cam on the panthers.

I can't check at work, but I thought he said it was a step backwards from the E3 version...not last year's. The implication being that the retail version will be noticeable different from the demo.
Not trying to convince you, though. If you're bored after a quarter then I don't think there are enough improvements that could be added in that timespan and make you happy.

So what's easier to you?
R3, up, directional, R3 (since you need to hide the menu)...oh damn forgot to shift the linemen...R3, left, directional, R3.
Or
Triangle, directional; R1, directional; L1, directional.
If I can just use up, directional to move coverage then I'm not worried. If R3 is merely a guide to the sequence and I never need it opened then I'm good and it's not a problem. However, if I have to use R3 before I can tinker with the defense. It becomes a problem because you have to open it if you want to change something.
Example: R3, up directional, left directional to show blitz. Now in order to un-show the blitz you have to keep the menu up or if you closed it have to re-hit R3. It starts out as one extra button but it won't always be just one extra button.

Pressing RT OR LT should bring up the classic kick camera

Then don't hide the menu until you shift your linemen/LBers/secondary if that's what you want to do..
Seriously you're acting like it's a big deal, it's really not. Especially not for someone who doesn't shift linemen, LBers, and secondary all in one play.. I sure don't. But I also suck.. so..

Madden 12 demo fricking blows.
Posted on 8/11/11 at 10:51 am to WoWyHi
Okay I thought it was just me that didn't have commentary

I wish they would make the NFL Head Coach game again.

Yeah, that was stupid. As much as I get tired of the same old BS they always spew, it sucks sitting there with absolutely zero commentary.
I think I'm going to buy Madden 11 again.

Madden NFL Commentators: Can't play with 'em, can't play without 'em.

Listening to Chris Collinsworth on Madden makes me want to sniff gasoline.
