The first few games I played I admit I wasn't having much fun. Even on slow the game speed feels fast. Perhaps because I was so used to NCAA.

Also got to tweak the sliders to your liking.

Did they fixed that whole problem of the runningback collapsing to the floor even when he is barely touched by a defensive player? I didn't like that in last year's Madden.

It still happens once in a while, but for the most part they've cleaned up that stuff.

If anything the backs are maybe a little overpowered. You can truck the shit out of the defense. Morris will plow through a couple of guys before he goes down. Stiff arms are nasty too. I've had to turn up the tackling slider for the D.

Running is really easy this year (maybe it's just AlfMo & RGIII). I'm thinking of adjusting the sliders a bit to compensate.

This is my first time buying the Madden game and I love it.
