Waah. you think I'm wrong? Seriously. It is just how it will be. This is why reviews can be silly at times, especially for sports games.

Look half you guys don't like the game and yet you still post here every day. I TRULY do not understand that logic at all.

It's a really fun game for me so far. I can not wait to play the full version, make a team and take it online. If all of that works well then I am happy. I don't play offline leagues. I probably will just for practice and to build my team for online, but thats about it. So for me, this is a great start for the game.

We could still be pleasnatly surprised with an AI that gets tougher the deeper the season goes. Who knows? Not a huge deal either way for me. I loved APF and barely ever played offline.

Is that directed towards me? If so, what does that matter here? I'm actually buying this game. Well let me re-phrase that I'm renting it then going to make my final decision. I was just saying that in every thread in this forum Madden is brought up. I knew it was going to be brought up here. If BB gets a low score, it is not BB's fault it is either an uneducated writer or it is because of politics.

While those things can happen it is not in every review. iIf BB gets good reviews these things wouldn't be brought up and the source of the review would then be credible. Not talking about you meth (lol) just in general.

The only reviews i trust are EGM's reviews. The reviewers were fans of the genre they were reviewing(and in the case of fighting games...whoop your ***). I haven't checked since the return of the mag in digital form a month ago.

Wow this is most likely the most pointless thread on this site. Since non of us can actual read the damn article is there even a point in having a thread devoted to this?

Mods you should lock this as there is no discussion being had here.

One score.........that is below avg. Some here want to make this game like the 2nd coming and others want to bury the game. June 1st is right around the corner.

Anyone who doesn't realize the corruption in gaming/movie/music reviews needs to open their eyes. The media they are reviewing is produced by the same companies that are 'basically' paying their paychecks.

So we have people here saying that the only way this game will receive low reviews is because of one or more of the following?

A. Madden
B. Politics
C. Un-educated reviewers

I'm sorry, but this is just sad. Maybe the game is a good foundation without a lot of bells and whistles and might actually have poor AI? Then what? Should it still get 80-100 because it has an amazing animation system and some really nice looking graphics? I don't think so. How about this, how about we actually wait until the game comes out and we play the final version before declaring it the best football game in the history of football games and stop getting personally offended by low review scores.

You forgot one.
The ones like me that thinks it just may be an average game. Nothing more..nothing less.
I'm buying nonetheless to support the team...
