Just when I thought it couldn’t get worse… It does. Instead of fixing tiny things like breaking a tackle and going back 4 yards behind the first down marker, like catching it and running out of bounds when they have 3 steps, like running a route so they are running out of bounds. Instead EA has decided to add a bunch more junk.
Madden Test: waste of time that helps me decide what difficulty I should play on. Honestly, when I start winning by 30-40 I will up the difficulty, and it doesn’t take a “feature” to help me pick my difficulty.
Rewinds: add cheats, they decide to bring back the old school mulligan which is just plain stupid that they would promote this.
Online Leagues: finally a brilliant idea (2 years late), but it would be nice if it didn’t freeze every day. I have played it for about 4 hours online roughly and had it freeze 3 times.
Overall the graphics are alright. If no one is moving, it is flat out amazing, but EA Sports still does not have a grip on the PS3 and probably never will. They just don’t give a … Sony needs to step in and give them a hand and walk them through like M$ did by walking them through using Direct X. (Yes that is what the 360 uses which is why it is the X box). In the end, don’t buy this game. The most popular American sport will never have a good game to go with it as long as EA owns the rights.
