Madden 12: We May Have Underestimated Cam Newton

[Chimera]

You guys played on xbox? or PS3?? I destroy people on PS3 with the panthers...I make people disconnect their systems lol

Madden 10 online with PS3 was easy. I had to go down early and come back just to be able to play a full game. Otherwise, they'd quit by the second quarter.

I'll stay and take the butt-whooping. Ask PantherfanB. I think I netted negative yardage against him.

i cant play this version or last years worth a poo, but ill jump on just for fun if someone wants to

Yeah, I'm excited for the ratings boost. I was a top player a couple years back (like top 500) and I barely played it... I've been playing an offline franchise, then played my first online games the other night... Lost the first one thanks to 3 fumbles. Beat the second guy 42-14 with us, he was using the Pats, and I was only awarded 12 skill points, lol.

I was pissed and didn't know if I wanted to play online anymore.

Now I do, lol. Can't wait to see them add guys like Tutu, Butler, and Thomas Williams too.

tutu already on there if im not mistaken. think he is rated low 60s.

back to the main topic, i like how they do updates from week to week but it would be more fun i was able to play the games accordingly. for example, play greenbay day of, wait for stats/updates and then play nxt game on game day..etc

2k sports would have gotten it right the first time

Is this guy serious? We should just ban him for being a retard. Let me guess ESPN football would got it right 2.

Compared to past Maddens, Madden 12 is actually a HUGE leap as far as accurate facial features and players being the right skin color, hair color etc. I can't remember which one it was but it was horrendous someone's hair was red, and people were wrong colors...I think king looked Hispanic and Rosario, Caucasian. It was bad, I wonder if they got the more popular teams right I should have paid attention.

They gave cam a generic face scan, including mustache.

In contrast, Terrelle Pryor had a custom face scan.

Ps3 jbrok83 first madden in 4 yrs so I such but will take on anyone in fifa 11 (12 in a few weeks.)

Right now he is 97OVR in my ninth franchise season.

Cam is a beast for such a low rating. he seriously plays like a 90 overall QB. the running ability definitely adds to the mix. also, having smitty and olsen help a lot too. i also moved gettis back up to number two on the depth chart and he's a beast. anyone on xbox, hit me up. i'm down to play!

I am on my 8th season and he is a 93 so that is good to hear.

His running abilities are godly. get a deep zone from the defense and its 10 easy and feel free to fight for more yards (up on the right stick).

I would also like to add franchise mode is crap. I have 3 years 90+ As everywhere. No cheating just sort through the potential and draft the top 15 every year no matter the position.

Sorry if I jsut ruined it for anyone but it isn't a cheat or secret really.

You can ass rape someone on picks too. To the right team a high round 3rd is worth next years top 3 picks lmao. a B player 75-80 is worth next years first and maybe second.

Players who resign do it for pennies, hell all players will sign for pennies. Cap space has no meaning if you can do basic math.

These are things that are new and suck, because in 10 there were at least some limitations and although you could still rape for picks you couldn't rape two years worth, that's all that 'all new trade next years picks!" means.

Way way too easy. Madden 11= all online.

Moore says Newton’s accuracy rating will go up across the board. Madden ’12 will now consider him to be a better quarterback than Donovan McNabb.

What a glowing endorsement. Newton's been better than McNabb for a couple years now.

[thunderraiden]

the computer forces cam to fumble whenever i run, even tho he has an 84 carry rating and i juke the other players defender that they are controlling just for the AI controlled defender to tackle and 50% of the time cause Cam to fumble. Of course if The Golden Calf of Bristol is carrying the ball i'll hit stick and strip ball from him 5 times in a quarter and he will still have the damn ball without even the slightest sign of a drop.

[Chimera]

mistiming a juke = fumbles. Use the RB (or R1 on PS3) to cover the ball.

[Lumps]

juke then push forward (up, right thumb) then quickly hit rb to wrap hte ball up right before the first defender hits you.

Cam is best for Qb draw plays on 3rd and 1 or goal line.

[Chimera]

There is a glitch in the game for QB sneaks from goal line formation. QBs will basically teleport 4-5 yards upfield. (assuming the defense isn't in goalline formation)
