Present.

There is no fear to missing a fairway and that's the problem. Just line it up and rip it. There is no strategy to driving the ball because you much of the time you can hit it where you want it. So at Augusta that course is pretty much toothless because driving the ball is so easy. Take the 18th hol...

I read some of the impressions and I can't help it...it sounds like this to me: "This game is crap because it doesn't make me suck enough!" lol If I wanted to suck at golf, I'd just go grab my dusty clubs and head to the nearest course... :lol: Well, no. I suck plenty enough thanks to my blacksmith...

JC, where can you see the scores online? Also, how are you posting messages in the OCC msg board online too? I had to go to our Country Club page within the game to view the tournament scores. I had thought we would be able to view the club scores on the website, but I don't see an option for it. T...

The lack of TrueAim like TW11 and how ridiculously easy it is to hit a straight tee shot on the hardest difficulty renders this game pointless to me. The crappy short play and putting doesn't help either. It blows my mind that people accept this. The gameplay has become horrible at the time I expec...

Been messing with sliders a lot too. SO much to like about this version with some really frustrating bits.

ANY advice on how NOT to get the ball easily swiped from you when one on one with a defender? Once again it's like the ratings for CPU players don't matter when it comes to dispossessing.

Glad the slider settings helped.

And yes, I have played more franchise games in the rain this year than I have in every other Madden game combined.

I have my sliders, right now, as follows (going off memory here, my daughter has confiscated the TV this morning and NHL 12 literally just showed up so a fight is about to breakbliloick out) You can pretty much stop wasting time on Madden now. I want to hear about NHL 12! Hell yeah! Was told today....

The lvls are hard to define, really.

Technically I'm playing on "Custom"

Unless I can find some sliders to make this game competitive I won't be buying it come Tuesday. First whomever handles the audio should be fired instantly. I didn't think it could get worse but it has. Not only is it stale very fast they constantly say things at the wrong time, I mean worse then ev...

Ok since I have not seen this mentioned I am chalking this up to me being an idiot but I can't find a way when I create a franchise or go into the options once one is started to adjust the accelrated clock run off, matter of fact accelerated clock is not even an option to turn on and off. I asked J...

Right , they didn't make the game for reviewers. Don't they get bonuses based on the Metacritic score? If the review was positive, he wouldn't be saying that. Probably not the best way to handle that... As for Hillis, I use liberal subs (because the default sub patterns are terrible) and my backup,...

Franchise notes are up:

Mizzou -- it's a tough call. At times it plays extremely well -- then, at other times....not so much.

Thanks, Bill. So, uh, like, why is there still no pass interference? It's part of football -- you see it every game. Why does the slider maxed not work? Any particularly good reason for that? I think a lot sounds promising, but I don't understand why they overlook details like this. I wish I knew...

Part I is up now, Part II (franchise) coming later today.

I hate work!

It's another really good game from EA this year. Significantly better than FIFA 10 IMO.

This is the best year in the history of the company, for my $.

Hopelessly, yes.

Lost a bidding war for a coach upgrade. Again.

This game will consume me. =) I'm working on tuning it a bit for the most realism but with hardcore settings you already have a great floor plan. Littman and EA Canada should be applauded for making the best hockey game ever. I'm in heaven. Yep. It's a monumental achievement for that development te...

The idea that you will play a game of Madden in 30 minutes is true...if playing on default settings. If you are reading this blog you most likely do not do that. You most likely, like me, play with 13 to 15 minute quarters with the Fast Clock option turned on so that you get a realistic number of p...

Players like that are tough for HoF induction just because of a lack of body of work. I understand what you mean, but 2 HoF worthy seasons may not be enough because he started to late How about Manny Gomez? 2 Cys in the first 2 years of the League. Just from that he's eligible. Gomez is a different...

I am waiting for FA to simmer down until posting my 2012 season predictions -- the DH will change a lot of teams.
