I picked mine up at midnight and just got done playing 3 games. First of all, I have to say, the graphics are smooth and beautiful, it's nice to see them take advantage of the 1080p resolution to show off the game.
As far as overall gameplay goes, i think it's pretty good. I noticed that it's a little harder to pull off the long passing plays of previous years, although, maybe I still have to perfect it
The running seems to be more balanced now where you can actually get a few yards on a play.
It is interesting how they have the difficulty matches how good you are in each category, that's a nice touch HOWEVER, it can be a little tricky at first because when it checks your rushing abilities, it's just the matter of pushing buttons at the right time, so you'll start off at All Madden skill, whereas some of the pass defense tests are tricky, I didn't catch onto what they wanted to get points. You can always just pick a level, but I like the idea how it tries to match how good you are.
Anyways, I hope you're all enjoying the game. Maybe once I shake the rust off of my football playing and get used to the new one, I'll hit ya up for a game ;)
