They probably do it that way for 5 minute quarters. If they did it realistically, most casual gamers would get pissed because a long drive could take almost an entire half.

O also remembered one play I was running a power O and I was forced to bounce it and I had the pulling guard in front of me and he just slowed down and like started heading off the field or back to the huddle, but completly got me killed. So instead of a TD I was tackled for a loss. I really hope plays like that don't happen in the retail, because that isn't even realistic just quitting on the play with the ball right there.

Sorry but this game is no good.

I do appreciate all the NEW enhancements but its just TOO many element and OLD problems that still exists. Running feels like WAY TOO smooth, normal screens dont work properly, OLine and Dline interactions are the SAME as the last 2 years (NEEDS COMPLETE OVER HAUL) No individuality (RBs run like WRs) I can go on.... But its okay game for people who do not look at a football and football games closely...

Stopped reading when you complained about something be TOO smooth? You mad at EA bro?

Played it for a few hours last night. This will be the first time in over 10 years I will not be buying it. It feels like NCAA 2012 after a 3rd patch. Crowd sounds better and the defense doesn't have psychic AI. That's about it. Everything else is EXACTLY the same. They added studio updates which... after a while, get extremely annoying. Looks, feels, plays exactly the same as it has for the past 3 years.

$29.99 might be worth the upgrade but $59.99 is simply insulting.

To people complaining about receievers catching streak routes deep without looking when the ball is thrown. This is not unrealistic. Often a streak route is thrown and the receiver has to find the ball in the air after it is thrown.

Love the sideline catches and new passing improvements (although WR #10 for LSU is not THAT good in real life.. lol).. LSU crowd chants are sweet.. Really solid game with a lot of small improvements from 12.. commentary is a little stale, but the new ESPN stuff is quite lovely. I'm sure the final build will be even better..

I'm not sure if I'd keep my pre-order if it was $59, but for $45 on Amazon, I'll be buying.. it'll definitely hold me over until Madden. Great year for football fellas!

I won't get to play the demo until tomorrow.

For those of you who have, would you say it has made your decision easier whether to buy it or not?

I was impressed. I mean guys we aren't going to get what we want, but I think the game is getting better. I found the new passing system great. I threw poorly due to my tendency to throw on the run, but this of course added to the realism. The receivers were better, and I enjoyed better blocking on returns. Although I'm still disappointed with a 2D looking crowd, but it was better then last year and louder. The timing of the loudness of the crowd was close to spot on. I loved it. And on a second note, guys not buying this game won't encourage EA to improve it, they will be encouraged to discontinue it. But overall 8.5/10.

The game does feel alot smoother. Crowd is really good this year. Commentary is much better imo.
A deft buy.
