    What the hell is up with Rewind? I must admit, I'm still getting used to the controls (haven't had a Madden game in years!!!) and I've accidentally hit this a couple of times after a big play. Talk about annoying!

    Last night, I had a 3rd and 23. I picked it up with a beautiful catch and run...then I got excited and accidentally hit the Rewind button. Boom, gone! Of course I tried it again and got like 4 yards and had to punt. Grr!

    Good game, but there are a few things about it I find to be annoying/dumb.

    You can turn the "rewind" feature off (or boost it up) in your settings. I imagine most Madden vets will ignore the feature.

    I could also probably go without Collingsworth "back track" feature where he pauses the game to explain why I'm stupid.

    Cool, I'll have to shut that stupid Rewind off. Dumb feature!

    I don't mind "back track" but he's always telling me something I already know.
    More often than not he shows the open receiver who I'm trying to throw to if it wasn't for that 320 lb. lineman plowing into me at the exact time he got open. LOL!

    This game (PS3) is really pissing me off online. I have played with a buddy of mine the last two nights and we've gotten disconnected during 3 different games. We finished 5 games (I'm 3-2) and the other 3 didn't count at all (no win/loss). It's really getting frustrating. Hope they fix this soon or I'm done.
    I wish I was as fortunate, as fortunate as me.

    I haven't had any problems yet. And in fact, I've been pleasantly surprised at Madden Online so far.

    can someone let me know how to hook my ps3 up online? can it be done wirelessly like the wii? Thanks in advance.

    Yeah, it's got wireless built in.

    Just go to the settings icon on the XMB (Cross media bar) scroll down and there should be a network settings option.

    It'll be somewhere in and around there. It's actually very easy to set up, assuming you don't have any crazy firewalls.

    There are bunch of vids on youtube that show you how.

    This one looks pretty straighforward.

    I was wondering the same thing before I got it. My last one was Madden '03.

    It's definitely a good game, and I think most die-hard Madden videogame fans will agree that it's much better than the last few years.

    You should pick it up booomm11...we're getting closer and closer to getting a PS3 AET Madden league going. :D
