I don't like the idea of the playart being shown.....

I mean, you just give people the other person's play? You don't even have to be responsible for recognizing what the other team is doing?

i don't get the difference between "hand" and "spectacular catch receiver"...
"smart corner" and "shutdown corner"...

aren't these the same?

Hopefully it only works if the offense likes calling the same plays over and over again. Otherwise it's pretty (Please Use More Appropriate Word).

I think it's a thing where, if a team runs the same play, numerous times, there's a more likely chance of the full play being revealed, and if its the first time running the play, there's less of a chance...

This is actually pretty good considering a lot of online players usually have a "money" play that they like to run.... :dontknow:

That's ok then, I was just worried that if I pick the Colts or something, I just get to see everyone's plays :D

Those are quite intriguing, but I don't like the play art thing and the multiple things that are the same like Hands and Possession receiver, shutdown corner and smart corner, totally pointless having two of the same thing.

I'll go 2K for basketball but for football, its gotta be Madden. I didn't buy last years madden so I'm looking forward to this one. The Weapons feature seems like a pretty interesting idea but it looks like they might have went overboard with it a little with all of the multiple categories for the same position. I'm interested to see how it plays out though.

hey... Madden could NEVER overdue it.

They do a great job of making this game as realistic as possible. I'm stoked to see how these versions are, compared to last years garbage. I'll give them a freebie since i didn't buy any last year, but i'm rented both NCAA and Madden and if they both are as good as advertised i'll happily purchase both

Its not going to show every play. If you run a player over and over again, the computer or the human player will be smart enough to counter it after a while.

This is a great feature. It makes the computer more challenging. I got bored of owning 63-10 everytime I played franchise mode. I could run the same deep routes with Santana Moss and the corners couldn't do ****.
