I'm not trying to be a Madden *****, but I don't think Madden is ever fairly reviewed. Reviews always compare it to past iterations of the game. While I think that should be a component, it needs to be put up against other sports games as well. Plus this game, for whatever reason, brings out such strong emotion that unbiased reviews are hard to come by.

I'm not doubting this won't be the best Madden game in a while. However, when compared to other sports games, you can tell that it isn't at the same level. Physics are typically off, players slide across the field rather than 'true step', etc. However, the review score indicates that it's just as good.
