to say it nicely all next gen maddens have had a gorgeous paint job covering up the flaws.
so fool me once shame on you fool me twice shame on me there is no 3rd time this gets a rent and if scrambling out and bombing it past "shutdown" corners works 3 out of 5 times like i saw in a video then i'm not wasting money
t’s not like the games were bad or anything, it was just that they weren’t up to our lofty expectations.

Did you not read the reviews by Pasta saying it's damn near impossible to throw on Bailey? It seems you're formulating an opinion off of one video. Play the game before you bash it.

I'm starting to wonder if EA honestly brainwashed these reviewers with free beer, playmates, and loads of money. Something seems weird that we've seen 3 reviews, and all have been 9.0 right?

[Vertebrae]

and there's been a 10 from Yahoo Games

[Tdoggy57]

It's not really weird,if the game merits a 9,am I right?

and Jah is a 2k8 guy.

To me, most reviews right now are garbage. You have a select few people who are biased towards sports games reviewing them, and I don't believe that is an accurate protrayal of the general population. I'm not saying these reviews aren't totally useless, as they do give an insight into what the game is like, but let the people decide in a couple weeks, after they've been playing it.

It looks like a 9 has become the "safe" rating for Madden this year. Since it seems they're giving online play a pass I can understand that rating. However if they actually looked into online and weren't putting out a bunch of BS, I don't see this game as a 9. Its tough though cause this is the deepest and richest experience you'll find in any sports game on the 360 or PS3.

I'd like to think that Randy Moss running a streak route would beat Asante Samuel atleast 3/5 trys. So thats about right to me. Also what the guy does not know is that you can Spotlight a wr's if he scares you that much.

Also if you are playing against a wr like Moss I would think you wouldnt leave him alone. I would play safety over his side and protect against the deep ball.
