Yup. You can already see signs of the honeymoon ending...just take a look over at the bugs/glitches thread. I personally caved and decided to pre-order the game - Teambuilder did it for me end - but I would also advise those still on the fence to wait as long as they can for more issues to be pointed out.

No change in my mind. I see the Madden vids then the NCAA vids, and I just can't play another lifeless EA football game after seeing how Madden stepped up the presentation this year. Didn't care for 09 so it would have to be a major overhaul for me to buy this year, and that just didn't happen.

Exactly. We're still in the "honeymoon" period that happens every year with the game. It takes some time to notice flaws. Not going to trust the "just played my first game and it was amazing!" review. I'll be thrilled if the game is still hyped up a few weeks from now.

Nope still not buying it. Madden is all me this year

The retail version looks way more polished than the demo. I'll definitely be buying this.

Still keeping with my old plan.

Getting it used. Would rather give my money to the videogame store.

Games are always awesome in the 1st couple days. Even last year, everyone was thinking it was pretty good, and we know how that turned out.
