Well, re: INTs it would make little sense that the weapons are having an impact seeing as NCAA '08 has the same issue. I'm playing with the Browns and Leigh Bodden is going to have the best year in the history of the league, and he's weaponless.

can't finish the game. After one quarter there were 4 Int's (2 by me and 2 by the cpu). 2 fumbles (one by me and one by the cpu). I have D awareness set to "10" also.

Don't think the weapons have any factor in INTS and Fumbles.

I agree, reviewers are tools, but they are a ridiculous source of info, anyway. In nearly any mag you will find that the staff doesn't spend much time on sports games when they list their "currently playing".

We should all be smart enough to know 2 things:
1) reviewers have little idea, as they do not have a large enough sample-size from which to judge, be it play-time or variety of product.

2) reviewers will NEVER, in any industry, do ANYTHING to piss off the advertisers and sponsors....never.


The blame for this kind of thing rests squarely on the shoulders of production, testing, and qc. (not quincy carter....)

I don't trust game reviewers on Sports games, these guys spend most of their time playing games like Gears of War and stuff online. I really question if they're even fans of sports. Plus they're probably playing on pro and rookie levels when reviewing anyways.

Re: Weapons are the cause of the Erratic Gameplay!

I like the weapons. I like knowing that if I throw do Andre Johnson he has a chance to make a play whereas I don't get the same feeling throwing to Kevin Walter. I also like knowing that if Dwight Freeney is rushing I better watch out. And while I can call the same play over and over on defense against average qbs, peyton manning makes me pay for it with the smart weapon. It might not be executed perfectly, but I like the direction they are going with it.
