Madden 2011

[over the mountain]

well my lady got me a PS3 and madden. needless to say i am happy since im not a video game guy and only play madden and on the Wii it just wasnt the same.

so i am getting my feet wet again with the real madden. so far i am 7 games into my first season. currently on pro level which will be moved up. im 7-0, shut out the comp for the first few games. closest game was against indy where i won 24-17 with manning failing to convert on a 4th and goal with seconds left.

im coming off Wii where i would go 14-2 in reg season, 50/50 on winning the SB on all madden. but i am taking my time getting used to the PS3 madden. Wii was a more open game where i could absolutely torch oppossing defenders on long passes where i took control of my receiver well before the ball got there. on PS3 it seems its harder for me to take control of the receiver and get him into position to make a catch 1 on 1.

so far i am liking it. surprised aobut how lil i was missing from the Wii version which actually has a much funner game play. With the Wii remote you can quickly thrust it forward for a dart pass or do a slow arching throw motion for a lob pass. your running back juke moves you move the remote left or right.

with the PS3 its harder to unlearn those actual hand motion controlled features.

re tackling, ive also noticed non agressive contain angles work well on the outside as long as your willing to give up a lil yards and cushion vs blazing full speed up the field trying to knock out the ball carrier.
