Who else has it? I have it, and am enjoying it so far. Looking forward to roster update with Mike Vick so I can start my Franchise, and I will soon finish my NCAA career and start my Superstar.

Wildcat is fun!

I got it, playing it on All-Pro and am not doing well. I was getting smoked playing as the Colts, now as the Steelers I am killing.

I bought it today and am really digging it. I need to pick a team though for franchise as I don't 'have' a NFL team.

Is it me, or is this the most difficult Madden ever?

It may not be as popular as NHL 10 on these forums, but does anyone want to start an NFL Franchise league online?

We could do 16 people instead of the 32, so people don't get stuck with bad teams.

If anyone wants to start one I dibs Steelers.

I think so, it took me 6 games to get my first sack! I can usually get 3-4 in a game.

I can't finish a game in 09, I just get pissed and turn my xbox off. I had a 35-0 lead once after the first half, and I lost.

This is my first Madden in like forever, is it usually this hard to have a decent run game?

It is by far a lot more difficult then past seasons. In large part because of the adaptive AI and the importance of individual attributes. Good players are good players. Bad players aren't that good.

No, well my last Madden was 07 but that game was super easy compared to this. Turn the difficulty to Rookie, play 10 games, figure out the game, then jack the difficulty up and repeat until you get to All-Pro or All-Madden.

I play on All-Pro for the achievements, and I am barely winning games. I have recorded 1 sack, a few int's in about 6-7 games. This game is way harder than previous editions. But it is the best of all of them as well.

Holy hell....the Vikings have such low ranked players at QB, WR, RE and OLB.....like REALLLLLY low. I'm going to have to make some trades.

Percy Harvin has an A potential and is super fast (97 speed, 99 accel i think?). In fact in my franchise i just traded Larry Johnson and Plexico Burris (picked up as an FA) for him and a 3rd.

I am loving this game! Haven't found a level to actually play my franchise yet, though I think I am close at All-Pro with running tuned to about an 8.

I am a Pats fan, but there is no fun in that and since I have always followed the Lions and Browns, but everyone and their dog is doing a Lions franchise, so I will be the Browns.

First moves are to sign rookie DT and G as they are short one, cut Pattenand the bottom WR, sign Burress as WR#2 and Dunn as my 3DRB. Away we go!!!

Mav · 08-15-2009, 12:43 PM

Loving it so far. As soon as I get my Internet hooked up to my xbox I would totally be down for a CP Madden franchise. Shotgun Colts

fredr123 · 08-15-2009, 12:51 PM

Anyone try the Wii version yet?

Finner · 08-15-2009, 01:01 PM

I'm actually finding it way easier to run in 10 then 09. Maybe it's the slower game speed, so i can see holes better.

In 09 i'd run 10 times for usually like 20 yards, but in 10, my first game i ran 12 times for 56 yards.

Ya I'm excited to use Harvin, and will probably sign Burris as well for my team. I need offensive line help on the right hand side...wow.

Going to play my first game in about 10 here.

FanIn80 · 08-15-2009, 05:36 PM

I'm down for whatever. 360 here!

I'd be in for Xbox 360.

What exactly is the best mode for Madden? Their "Superstar" mode pales in comparison to the "Be A Pro" mode in NHL. It doesn't even have in-game commentary...

Is there something I'm missing?

Franchise mode is the main thing for offline.

I definitely want to get some sort of online franchise going if we can get enough PS3 gamers for that.
