Sounds like they've got several of the issues I've had with the game fixed.

I just bought an Xbox 360 and I have the game on pre-order. I can't wait for August 30!

I'm actually excited to play this version after learning of the new AI and how it'll adjust to your playing style. Guess that means no more find one play that rocks and do it over and over ... well, I'm sure we'll find other ways to exploit that feature.

The no more suction blocking is gonna be good too, especially while using Clay.

I haven't played Madden since the 2007 version (on PC) so I'm just excited in general to try it again. I had read that the past several years versions weren't all that much improved, but that this one has made some serious strides.

Hopefully Madden steps up their game. NCAA has blown Madden out of the water the past 2 years and still continue to improve everything from online play to your "My Player" portion of the game. Regardless if you don't have much interest in college football, its a pretty good football game if Madden fails again.

I was in an online league and the exploits people find in Madden are just downright stupid. Part of that was running plays that the AI could never pick up on (can't control every player on the field). The other big problem was the suction blocking. I really hope Madden fixed their game this year.

Sometimes I really wonder what they do the entire year to only have minimal improvements. 🤔

I'm assuming EA fixed the suction blocking in Madden because they fixed it in NCAA. It's actually pretty nice. According to some, there is still the flaws like MLBs picking off/knocking down passes that are being thrown 25 yards past them (Supermen for LBs), but I have yet to run across that like I did at least 10 times a game last year.

Highly disliked that. The one thing I will give EA Madden and NCAA credit on is listening to their customers this year (and sort of last year).
