Umm, what? Are you kidding me? It is forum where he his afforded the right to voice his displeasure. He did so without resorting to broken english or inflammatory remarks. You act is if hes drinking himself into a stupor while complaining to complain.

Some users here are so sanctimonious.

And here is the root of the problem, all this time I was mad at EA for substandard products. When in actuality its a large % of the fan base whos to blame. Lower our expectations? Why? "Its just a game", "nothing is perfect", etc just reeks of medocrity, hence, more often than not, thats what we get. So many are conditioned to accept it.

As soon as you detest the medocrity vocally, youre shot down by several select OSers with their "logic" & "perspective" telling you how "bitter", "whiny" etc you are.

I have retail version and loving the game. Small issues that bug me (commentary is totally whack) but definitely glad to have purchased.

Yeah that is why we have a DEDICATED THREAD to voice your opinions on the game, it is called the IMPRESSIONS THREAD.

Just like we have dedicated bugs & glitches thread, highlight reel thread, Q&A thread, etc.

Those threads are stickied to the top of the forums for a reason. Less clutter....We don't need dozens of individual threads talking about the same thing.

This year something very interesting seems to be happening....game sites are giving it lower reviews while the "trusted names" on this site (BK, Sky, etc) are giving it a thumbs up.

Encouraging to say the least. I trust them WAY more then a reviewer who tends to review more CoD and less sports titles.

Why should people lower their expectations ? People's expectations are formed by what they've been exposed to in the past. There are still things ( game-play wise) that have been done better in other games ( some made by EA) years ago. Madden is behind the rest of the sports genre. People expect a football video game that is on par with the rest of the sports genre.
