an 8.2 wow, that's pretty low. He sounds like the guy that wrote the IGN review a little bit. No mention of head tracking and the new WR/DB animations. The guys sounds terribly disappointed.

Reviews are much lower this year than past installments.

I'm hoping the douchebag testers didn't like the new simulation gameplay. I've hated past Maddens because they were too arcadey.

yeah, I think I'll wait till 360 version, I'm not gonna give them 50 then 50 later. I just gave them 50 on ncaa. So if I got all they got me for 150 dollars um....................HELL NAW!!

This is a very interesting trend with low scores for Madden now that 2K no longer exists. At least this reviewer's score matched his writing.

That stat-bug he pointed out is also extremely interesting.

This is from there review...

Essentially, stat-tracking for passing in Madden NFL 06 is broken. Any time you take a sack or throw an interception in the game, for some bizarre reason, it results in negative passing yards. It's as if you threw the ball to a receiver and he ran backward for six yards whenever you get sacked. Last we'd checked, the NFL doesn't deduct passing yards for sacks or for interceptions, meaning that this is a particularly ugly bug

Can anyone confirm this who has the game, is so this would be a bummer bigtime. I'm going to pick up my copy at midnight, is anyone can check this I thank you very much.

Man i dont know about you guys but this is the very first time that the game has not gotten at least an 8.8 from Gamespot...i know that IGN isnt the most trustworthy site but i have come to respect gamespot...and this is no good...say what u want about espn nfl 2k5 but that helped push EA to get it in gear...well all the speculation will be over at midnight so we can see for ourselves...but its not like i have a choice this is the only game we can buy (and none of that blitz crap please)...Well if anything i like NCAA so i'll stick with that!
