Can IGN be taken seriously when it comes to Madden?

[Reggie16]

i just use theres as a guideline but mainly i base my purchases off what close friends say and i try it out first

lol IGN.

lol Nate Ahern.


Watch 10 seconds of any video showing this toolbag playing the game and you'll discredit anything he has to say.

Looks like he's picking up a controller for the first time in his life.


Unfortunately sites like IGN gather dummies who can speak on camera and write a comphrensible article rather than someone who's actually into gaming and understands them beyond the visuals.


Forums will ALWAYS be greater than review sites.

Nice EA ads by the way IGN.

Any site with the same game being advertised is likely a waste of time as those ads pay all of their salaries. Ask yourself, would you bite the hand that feeds? Gertsmann did and he was out of a job. Never forget this.

As has been stated by many, Sports games... not so much.

Well overall I don't listen to none of these reveiws anyway about games. I rent them first. If I like them after I rent them I buy them. Pretty simple.

The one post in this thread that actually attempts to give a reason as to why is ignored by everyone.

IGN: Sports!? What is sports?

When it comes to EA anything IGN says cant be taken seriously.
