APF 2K8 the victim of Biased Media?!?!? Not even surprised!

I think APF deserves to get what it was reviewed. NBA2K7 was rated a 8.5+ by most reviewers and a 9/10 here. The Show recieved similar scores. APF got a 7.5 by most reviewers. Compared to those games, that score was just about right. The problem is when Madden 07 gets a 8.5 or Madden 08 gets 9 and 10's for gameplay or some ridiculous crap like that. It's flaws glossed over. I was actually glad that the IGN review took Madden to town over presentation.

You don't have to defend EA. You could just hate on both.

That's not what I mean. I mean, why do you care what a video game gets from a reviewer. Is it really that important? It's all I am saying.

EDIT: BTW not you, but in general why do people care.

Where has Madden 08 gotten 9's and 10's?

Have you played Madden 08?

Well, usually Companies support the product that will generate them more money.

So yea all companies will support the product that generate more sales.

They'll support all products they feel will generate more money. If anything they would try to get the hoops games some help, since Madden already had a grip on football game marketshare unlike any sports game out there.

Actually if I recall from talking to them at E3 a few years ago, their biggest brand name is FIFA.
