If anything, you should get a little extra time to get your team oriented. As it is, you don't have time to call an audible or put someone in motion. Ridiculous!

The reason they did that was to stop all of the cheese some people use to take the whole 40sec to set up a play the last couple of years hot route everybody on the field and it wasnt fun waiting every play

I read that mot of the important fixes will be released in a SECOND patch. So in order to use the product that you advertised in the way intended I first have to purchase an incomplete product and then wait 1-3 months for you to fix it. Does this sound like good business to anybody

LMFAO that is funny but true when u look at it * that

Biggest piece of crap ever!!! Hey losers are you ever going to put out a patch to make it playable???

has anybody had the problem where the team misses fg and they get new set of downs. it happened to me and it cost me the game

Accelerated clock is straight GARBAGE BULL.

Designed to help the other player not to speed up the game get real.

I can tell when a players IQ, not skill level, is close to mine, I have way more time to hot route or audible, I have

picked my play 3 seconds into the play screen, should have at least 20 seconds, not me have like 4-5 seconds to snap

the ball COME ON NOW, oh and thats after my comp let the computer pick his defense thats just STRAIGHT

BULL***, be fair to the good players not help people that need more practice, HONESTLY.

Get rid of the level system its bull and WE ALL KNOW IT. Computer A.I. adjust to your IQ not level rating, the

Accelerated clock has proven this time and time again. If this game is about REALISM lets just keep it REAL

THEN. PEACE!

I just want to know why the EA Madden series does such a poor job with the Hall of Fame players that are on the game. First of all, the players do not have the helmets, facemasks or other equipment that matches what they actually wore when they played. I know that EA made an extra effort on Madden 2010 to make the contemporary players look more realistic because of so many complaints from gamers. It is time to give the HOF players their due respect.

What is the use in having the great NFL HOF players on the game if they do not look anything like or have the actual equipment that they wore when they played? They should be created on the game to have all of the old school facemasks, helmets and all other equipment that these players wore in real life. Also, some of the HOF players do not look anything like themselves. You gave Larry Little of the Dolphins dreadlocks! I don't think he had dreads in the 60's and 70's. I did notice that you did give Walter Payton his jheri curl, so that is a move in the right direction.

You have all of these great HOF players on your game and you don't even attempt to market this aspect of the game. You have Barry Sanders, Harry Carson, Larry Czonka, Michael Irvin, Thurman Thomas, Earl Campbell and etcetera who are outright superstars. These players are arguably more marketable than the contemporary players. It is a waste that you don't even make an effort for them to look realistic. This is really pitiful. I think All-Pro Football 2K8 did a whole lot better job than Madden with their old school players, facemasks, and equipment.

EA Sports was allegedly sued for using Jim Brown's likeness and you did not even have him on the game. The HOF players that you DO have licensed are simply going to waste because you do not attempt to make them an important aspect of the game.

Also, you should be able to put Andre Tippett, Mike Singletary and etcetera on their former teams without having the teams go over the salary cap. For example, we want to see Rod Woodson making tackles for the Steelers.

People enjoy playing with these great HOF players and if Madden is truly the best football video game, then EA should have the Hall of Famers represented correctly and pay them their due respect. This should be the number one priority on Madden 2011's wish list.

I have owned every copy (Playstation) of Madden since '99. I've seen great ones, 2001-3, '08, '09. And some bad ones '04, '05, 2007. 2007 being the worst of the bunch, until now. EA sports has slapped us in the face with marketing and gameplay videos that do not deliver. In my opinion, you have dumbed it down to a point where a monkey can dominate any game. No offense to any monkeys who may be reading.

Things I Like:

game physics have improved
half time report
graphics in general

Things I Abhor:

Where's the beloved passer cone?
How about the ability to make subs in the play-calling screen?
Change the primary receiver before the snap.
Distinct QB snap cadence
The End Zone celebration mechanics
THE HIT STICK IS F***ED

So I hope you're very pround of yourselves' for ruining something that was nearly perfect.

Watching the eagles - saints game on Tv right now...and guess what?? I see cheerleaders!!!
When i play Madden,,do i see cheerleaders? answer is NO!!
They showed a replay and i saw the cheerleaders whole a$$.
If its in the game,,,put it in the game!!
Madden 2011 better show me some cheerleaders!!

I like the game, but my biggest complaint is that the AI QB has no cadence, he just walks up to the line and hut, the ball is snapped and I do not have time to adjust my defense. I mean the AI QB should be reading the defense as well, taking some time to audible or change the pace a little bit.

The half time show is a good idea, but can be even better in the madden 11.

There is other things that can be fixed too, but the one that is totally making the game no fun is the QB quick snap.

Oh yeah, switching to control different players does not work very well.

How cares if the players have towels if the game is not fun to play anyway. Just fix the QB quick snap...please, the same problem happened in 09 also, that is until Ea fixed it with a patch.

Also, why is it that the AI defense always has linebackers in position to cover over the middle, but the user linbackers do not even cover the middle of the field or or out of position to make a play, this happens no matter what coverage you use.

Actually, after reading some of the posts I see that there are a few people that might feel this way too, so I'll go ahead and say it. EA should branch off with a throwback video game based on football and I'm sure if it's successfull then other sports could follow, but I do really like being able to use legendary players in their original enviornment (team), and original uniforms and equipment controlled by me with the new features and graphics of todays game. Some of us love the history and some of us remember being there and idolizing that player, now we would like to be able to use our favorite players the way that kids get to use their favorites of today.

By the way, I'm sure if Jim Brown succeeded in his lawsuit, one of his conditions may have been that EA cannot use his likeness in a video game. At least that's what I'm thinking.

Nano's still ruin the game for me.

This isn't the best madden out, go buy a PS2 pop in Madden 2006 and have fun. This madden is ridiculous with the pressure that gets through from nano's. You mean to tell me that DREW Eff'in Brees can't get off any throw he wants in Madden? Waste of money son, waste of eff'n money.

Things I like about Madden NFL 10:

- I like the player models
- I like the ability to adjust the game speed or keep it at its default pace
- I like the quarterback throw animations



Things I think can be improved:

- Please!!! Improve the running animations, it detracts from the game play sometimes because they are very generic.
- Please make stutter steps while running the ball more fluid
- Please make defensive pursuit more fluid, some times it feels like I'm locked to a grid when chasing the ball carrier.

Things I like

The Graphics are INCREDIBLE
Its FUN to play.
I like the weekly show in offline franchise mode, build upon it
Games feel just right on All Pro level
I love all the extra animations, the stumbling, the increased trucking, its a generation better then 09
Fantasy Draft with NFL Greats. OMG, OMG, Tony Dorcett, the BEST RB in Madden 10 and all the others


Things I don't like, Need to FIX

Mostly, Online Franchises. The Commish needs the same control he has in NCAA Dynasties. You need to be able to put people on Auto/Away. You need to send out invites ranther then have people join. Even with passwords, people can and do cherry pick the cpu teams by releasing them into Free Agency and then leaving and coming back in to pick them up. The only way now to stop that is to change the password AFTER EACH person you add. A PAIN. It only takes 1 Cherry Picker to screw your league. And you need to have a Franchise HQ where you can put messages LIKE CONTACT info so you can get in touch with people who are not online.

NCAA 10 is now like work compared to Madden. You have created some fun to play eye candy!

Madden 10 is garbage, just like Madden 09.

hey EA, did you test the game on franchise mode for two players offline? I used to play this mode with my cousin, but last year we didn't because gameplay was horrible and poor features on franchise mode. But this year it's just ridiculous; we played one of our games (I played my team and my cousin took control of the other team), meanwhile the other game (the one of the team owned by my cousin) was simulated!!!, I can't believe it.



Things I like about Madden NFL 10:

- franchise online (even though it didn't satisfy my expectations for 2 players)
- better gameplay than 09
- slower gameplay


Things I dislike about Madden NFL 10:


- can't play franchise offline with 2 players
- offline franchise mode features (or lack of)
- no owner mode
- fight for the fumble
- audibles
- can't hide my play selection with L2 L1 buttons like in previous versions

Things I think can be improved:

- add owner mode
- franchise mode features
- gameplay



I'm really disappointed

this game is a joke. accelerated clock is terrible.. should take the average number of plays of every nfl game last year/this year whatever it is and try to allow that in the game. i don't care about realistic clock, i do care about actually being able to set up a playaction pass though. i doubt i'm alone on this.

players having to leave the game after 4 no huddle plays..what?

trajectory of qb passes is flawed. if i'm throwing a corner route there is no way a linebacker in cover 2 should be able to jump 4 feet into the air to pick off a pass. that's a long throw, there's no way it should be low enough for a linebacker to get. same on a seam pass, as soon as a receiver/te clears the backers they are not going to be able to pick that ball.

it's incredibly unrealistic. i don't understand how a corner picks off a slant pass in man coverage while trailing the receiver(had westbrook outside, speed shouldn't have been a factor) and then my defense has 12 deflections (mostly on deep throws down the field into tripple coverage) and no picks on passes that should be no brainers. i understand there is some luck involved, but as far as realistic, an 8th grade safety picks off half the ones my guys have dropped.

franchise is boring. i'd much rather play head coach (which if you had competition you would be forced to add into madden as another gameplay mode)

superstar mode is boring. no pre draft workouts? what? no combine? you don't even know when you get drafted?

next year let us create playbooks headcoach style. (which should be ADDED to madden as a full complete game)

defensive ends are ridiculous. i hate this. d ends are beating blocks and hitting my qb before my slot guy even breaks on his post route 15 yards down the field.

does the qb really always throw the ball 90 yards into the air when he's hit while throwing?

the game controls feel unresponsive. trying to switch to a defensive player to make a play on the ball is impossible. half the time it switches to the wrong guy.

how can there be perfect blocking when somebody returns a punt out of a 4-3 defense?

why is there no quicksub option?

graphics are amazing, only positive thing

i like the rookie ratings, have no idea about development in franchise though since i get bored after season two.
