All Madden is insanely hard this year. Addai/Greene both run like Barry Sanders.
Gonna have to get used to it I guess. I love that the deep ball is viable again.

I traded in SvR2010, Singularity and UFC 2010 and with my store credit, pre-ordered and paid off 11. I won't be using the 20,000 in game coins for Madden Ultimate Team though....

So I was just reading little things from 11's Wikipedia page....and it says if you win the Super Bowl, your team gets a parade and a trip to Washington, D.C. where your star player will shake hands with President Barack Obama and present him with a team jersey.
Heh....that's a first. Not a big deal, just something I thought was pretty alright.

While it would be awesome to see Joe Flacco give President Obama a Ravens jersey, I'd have to see it for myself to believe it.

That sounds so freakin cool.
I just wished they'd give a decent halftime show like NFL 2K5 had. They had it back then I don't understand how they can't make it happend by now.

The whole Obama thing seemed questionable to me, but it appears that it is legitimate. ESPN has a brief article about it with screen shots from the game.

Gamestop had the free in-game coins, Best Buy had 50% off another title, Amazon had $20 in gaming credit, Wal-Mart had a $20 e-Gift card. I want to say it's $49.99 at Target all week, though. I ordered mine from Amazon back in July with $20 credit I had from a previous purchase, cost me $39, plus I got another $20. Should be arriving at my house anytime now (free release date delivery) - I can't wait to get home from work.

I got an email today from TRU saying $15 gift card if you purchase it from them today. I wanted to preorder it from them, but they never had the presale tickets this year so I ended up ordering it from Gamestop. I picked up my preorder for the XBox this morning and just finished Week 1 of the regular season and I already lost Darren McFadden for 12 weeks (herniated disk) & Michael Huff for 10 weeks (Broken Collarbone). I don't think in all my years of playing Madden I ever lost anyone for that long on the first week of the season.

I just played Week 4 against the Redskins [Eagles of course, I am] and Riley Cooper went down for 9 weeks with a broken collarbone. Poor rook. I made my move for Tim Tebow though. Travard Lindley - a bench CB - and 2 draft picks for Mr. Friar Tuck.

Only move I made for the Falcons was putting Jamaal Anderson on the trading block, and the Colts offered me Pierre Garcon. SOLD!

Just picked up my copy this morning from TRU. I love this game so much! The presentation, gameplay, this game is fantastic! Played my first game as Bears vs Giants on Pro just to get used to everything. 35-0 blowout. Can't wait to continue the experience!

Picked mine up at target. Got a 10$ gift card (used before I left to buy my 4 year old batman, redcape blu ray) and 2 bags of doritos that are target exclusive that get you an ultimate team thing. Target was the best deal I could find.

I expected this thread to be a bit more lively than it is.
Been playing most of the evening, having a lot of fun with it. Doesn't feel like a ton changed from last year, but that's to be expected with Madden.
I'm enjoying the new running controls for the most part - I always found myself sprinting and putting little strategy into my run in previous years.
Presentation looks good, although it's still a big laggy at times. The majority of the mechanical issues that were present last year are still lingering, but overall, a great effort as usual.
Trying toi nail down what difficulty I want to play my franchise on. I'm not great but I don't consider myself terrible either. I'm playing through my pre-season just to get used to everything and actually establish a difficulty.
I think I'll have to go with custom settings, as in my first game I played on pro (forgot to adjust the sliders and simply went into the game because I was so excited to play). It was terribly boring and I blew out my opponent 31-0.
The following week, I went all-pro and had a tough time, and lost, but had a final score of 16-7.
My third game, I went with the "my skill" to test it out and had a close game - a 28-24 win.

I need to get back home soon so I can pick this game up! I've already got a roster move in mind for Baltimore. It's basically just "do whatever I can to get Darrelle Revis on the Ravens."
