Better graphics, no cpu sliders, superhuman cpu against the run, decent passing game, boring franchise mode, overall I give the game a C, maybe next year.

is it possible that the reason for no cpu sliders is that the sliders control both the hum and the cpu?????

Re: What to Expect!

If you are buying a 360 for sports gaming I would suggest saving some money and getting another PS2 off of EBay until we see how good Madden 2010 is....

I wish this were the case.
Unfortunately......the removal of cpu sliders (still dumbfounded) was beyond a ridiculous choice (imo).

I'm sure it was probably to force us to use this new eq thing. Sure,the sliders will adjust the hum player,but you're pretty much at the mercy of the cpu without the inclusion of cpu sliders.

I tried just setting the difficulty at All-pro last night,and actually had a couple of really good games.

All in all...Madden is still just a barely average game (imo), it sure isn't what I expected it to be going into the 5th installment on the 360.
