All-Madden = insane

I bought Madden 08 the day it came out. Ive been playing ever since. I cannot believe how fast the CPU reacts to every pass play. Even on All-Pro i have like 100 picks. I dont know if im just bad or if its the same? what about you guys?

Hey I ahd the same problem. If you adjust the sliders it helps alittle. Like I adjusted them and I still had like a couple of 5 int games. Its crazy how fast they react to the ball. Like they always get under my player as soon as I throw the ball and I have no chance then

You can't force throws like you did in previous versions of Madden .... My issue wasn't with them picking my passes off but how they were doing it ...

Like when a LB somehow slides over 5ft to the right and picks me off, that's absurd or when a CB has his back turned and is following my WR on a fly route and then all of a sudden turns around to intercept a pass I'm throwing to my other WR who's running a drag route ... Well that's just dumb ...

I suggest lowering sliders or practicing alot more .... I started to manually take over my WR's before the catch to make sure they made a play at the ball before the Defense and it's helped reduce some INT's

Well, I'm still playing on All-Pro and I've put the sliders up a bit, and I've gotta say I haven't had too much trouble with interceptions. Maybe since you guys are using different systems? I'm not sure, I'm not having many more problems with interceptions than I did in last year's game.

Yeah... I don't mind one, MAYBE two, Deion Sanders in the NFL every year. But a whole team of them is annoying. SLIDERS!

I always throw picks when I first start out on a new Madden. This year is ridiculous though. Especially when the defender has a light bulb under him. They get that thing full and it doesn't matter what I do. it's either a pick or a fumble. What's the deal?

The computer... Well... I think it cheated last year. And this year it doesn't think there is a spoon.

Heck I had a DT also pick off one of my guys and early in the game my cornerback who is DeAnglo hALL DROPPED one that was in his hands.

Oh I was playing last night and my WR Ted Guinn fumbled the ball and the defnese picked it up. I think it was Charles Tillman who picked it up but he broke though 3 O-Line, a QB, a RB, and 2 WR and scored a TD. Good thing I challenge it tho so it never happen but I will never forget that as I watched the replayy before I challenge it and counted the guys he just broke away from. It was crazy
