With the GameFlow feature, the plays system have been simplified giving players more time with the ball and less time deciding on plays. It is advertised to reduce the duration of a full game from 60 minutes to only 30 minutes. Taking hints from the EA Sports NHL and FIFA Soccer series, NFL 11 sees the introduction of the dual analog stick controls where the right stick is given the task of controlling different running moves. New locomotion function also provides an accurate representation of acceleration and deceleration. The revamped audio presentation system features Gus Johnson and Cris Collinsworth for play commentary and analysis Madden NFL 11 is available on the Xbox 360, PS3, PS2, Wii, and PSP gaming platforms. Note that features and gaming experience might vary on different platforms.
