Granted it was 2:30 AM my wife didn't think it was that great when I woke her up yelling at the top of my lungs in excitement.

I just wanted to share that with you guys. If you guys have any great stories of some epic moments of online play I'd love to hear from ya. Post below.

That's epic! Seriously.

My best was I am down 14-9. They had the ball at the 5. He tosses it into the endzone. Cromartie (Chargers) intercepts it and returns it 104 yards for the score and win.

Thanks man. Cromartie is beast in this new Madden. I bet it was a hell of a play.

I was trying to get 3 achievements in one game.

1.) Win in freezing weather at Lambeau
2.) Throw a TD to win in the last 30 seconds.
3.) Come back from Behind after 2 minutes.

I played the whole game letting the CPU go up 6-0. I ran the clock down to 30 seconds and then went to set up my final play. Instead of getting the TD toss, the CPU forced a fumble and recovered.

CPU 1st Down: 25 seconds left. I get the sack with offsides turned off. Call time out with 23 seconds left.

CPU 2nd Down: 23 seconds left. I get the sack with offsides turned off. Call timeout with 20 seconds left.

CPU 3rd Down: 20 seconds left. I mess up the sack attempt and they complete a pass for 20 yards. I force a fumble on the tackle and take over with 10 seconds left on the clock.

I pass for the TD and get the PAT on my first down netting all three achieves. Not quite as epic as beating someone online, but it would have sucked to have played the game all over again because of a fumble with 30 seconds left to play!

Just 3 more achieves left now and I can move on to the next game.

I hate it when people only play games for the Achievements.

There's so much more to many games (including Madden) than the chievos....

agree now that I have 1000 I'm going to try to beat all the madden moments like I did last year then. Franchise mode which I will probably be playing to the end of the NFL Season.

Hehe.

I can still remember watching the (unbelievable) Colts - Texans game and thinking "man this is definitely going to be a Madden Moment in 10 - and it's gonna be hard as f**k."

I already beat that one that one is hardest along with the Reggie Bush Punt Return. The Falcons game with 6 sec is hard too. But I love this game mode.
