Maybe its just me, but deep true-to-life cold hard strategy gets me immersed, but I'm like that I like having to think, front desk or field, i want a challenging complex system, ESPN won on the field last, year but looks far from that this year, they really f'ed up the DB AI with some tweaks. ESPN isn't deep in franchise, its just hiding behind presentation which doesn't add any real value to the game IMO. Talk about gang tackles all you want, with Madden's new defensive system and All-Madden engine some half sacks and an extra broken tackle here and there are fine, I'm sticking with Madden. I just think that personally I will like it better, most people here will agree with me on this one, if you don't, then go play ESPN simple as that. Madden is no.1 on this board , definetly this year!

...Madden don't even come close!

Madden- gamplay is easy for the football novice or casual fan, and Arcadey!
ESPN-This is where the hardcore fan comes to game. Realistic Sim...period!
And with right tweeks w/ sliders, ESPN leaves Madden "IN THE DUST in GAMEPLAY!!

Hehe, seems inevitable.

Why can't we all just agree that they're both great games. What we really have here is a failure to communicate.

they added 1,000 new animations, so it could be true. it still may not be true, but i love when fanboys come in and bash games they haven't even played yet or read up on in any detail *rolls eyes*

Another ignorant fanboy. IGN said in All-Madden had better gameplay. Even TCrouch did when he was doing the Q&A for this game and he was as big an ESPN fan as anyone, stop shooting your mouth about negative things on games if you haven't played them.
