Speaking of which,I find it ironic something like this that's considered a bug when it's not and the game punished for it when it shouldn't be while stuff that's glitched to all hell like Fallout 3 and RDR are handed GotY awards.

All in all, the guy at Gamestop who wrote the review deserves a nice palm to the face....

Editor's Note: This review previously contained incorrect information about receivers' routes appearing as squiggly lines. What we believed to be a glitch is, in fact, a feature to show how nervous a quarterback is. GameSpot regrets the error.

Thats at the bottom, dont know if someone posted it yet or not but still this is so funny. The review is terrible, OUTDATE graphics? Where? I think it looks great.

I'm not much into taking many reviews to heart, but WOW. That was a pretty a sad attempt. The whole update about changing the comments about squiggly lines is just as bad. The entire review is completely off base.

Granted this is the same site that FIRED a guy for calling a game like he saw it, (along with the majority of other "professional" reviewers), in which case he said that game bombed (again, along with the majority of other "professional" reviewers) . I can't remember the name of the guy or the game (jeff possibly), but I'm sure someone here remembers it.

Not the end of the world or anything, and it surely won't sway anyone's purchasing decision that's been following the game, but still......WOW.
