Arguably one of the worst written reviews I've ever read (APF gets a 1.5 out of 5)

Yeah, enough about OJ-this game deserved a 4.7 out of 5 and underscores the problem with reviews of this sort-the reviewers spend almost no time with the game(much less than many of the Madden forum critics of APF), are many times influenced by what is considered popular, and have little knowledge of a particular game genre. I mean does this guy seem like an authority on the game of football?

Anyone who whines about O.J. gets tuned out now. He was the first 2000 yard rusher (in 14 games). He averaged 6.0 yards a carry that season. Stop whining.

After all, what's a little thing like double homicide compared to all that?

If it doesn't bother you, or if you think he's innocent, fine. You're entitled to your opinion.

DO NOT presume to tell me or anyone else that they are whiners just because they don't share your pov.

Not only do the 2K fans now demand that reviewers like the game, they have also issued an edict that we can't "whine" about murderers.

Awesome. Every time I think we've reached the absolute low, you guys out-do yourselves.

Right, we should just take everyone out who might've done something wrong. Ray Lewis, gone. Michael Vick, gone. Pacman, yanked. Bonds, gone.
Meh

This game is about LEGENDS. O.J. Simpson is a LEGEND because he was a great halfback, perhaps one of the best ever. If you really want to keep whining about something that doesn't matter, then go ahead. If you really want to keep going with the armchair marketing (LOL THEY PUT HIM IN TO GET PUBLICITY U GUYS!) go ahead. Like I said, tuned out.

edit: YES. Skerik victim statement. The 2k defense force is out to get you!!!

So basically because OJ was in the game and the fact that he reviewed the PS3 version of the game is why he gave it such low scores. I mean hey we all know about the framerate probs with the PS3 version. The OJ stance was stupid and shows just how much people who review actually pay attention to what they are playing. That guy isn't a journalist he's a loser.

Well, at least I don't hang around a forum talking negatively about a game I don't like for the past 2 weeks.And I say that with all due respect. I know you're all right guy Skerik, but don't you think it's time to move on and give up the anti 2K fight? We are not all monsters!!

Exactly.

There are a few posters that seem to think it is their job to hang here and constantly troll threads. We get it. You don't like the game. It doesn't have franchise. O.J. is in the game and you hate him. You think corner routes are money. WE GET IT.

Follow it up with a victim statement with a blanket generalization about 2k and their fans and you're done!
