It's not the only issue but it's by far the most annoying and the one most likely to make people stop playing. With practice you can limit your own turnovers but the CPU has a nasty habit of throwing 3 or 4 interceptions in most games.

I have rented it a few times. I am asking my wife to get it used for an christmas present. I wouldn't pay full price for it.

Re: Is this game playable still?

Personally, I'm playing the absolute hell out of it. At least a game a night. This is always my favorite game, regardless of the other great titles that come out.

Re: Is this game playable still?

For me the passing and turnovers (cpu opponent) were just unbearable, then one day I was playing against my brother and we analyzed some issues we had. For us it was the passing game (ball trajectory when lobbing mainly) and the run game did not feel quite right either.

Then we fooled around and moved passing accuracy to 60 and bam better trajectory with the ball and improved in a realistic way passing game.

We also adjusted running back ability to 55 and better running game.

We made this adjustment for both human and cpu and I am having super games against the cpu and offline two player games. I play all american with 5 minute quarters. I also turn the home field advantage off which has decreased the cpu's interceptions, because it stops the interception snowball effect. For two player games if I remember I turn it on.

I hope this can help someone who wants to give this game a second chance. Just try it before you kill it.

What system is this? I don't remember this option on my 360. I can't imagine I'd want to turn it off, but it'd be good to know it was there at least.

Re: Is this game playable still?

I hate to say this, but for me this game is unplayable for me now. I hate when I try to throw a pass over the middle to the TE over the MLB's head but in front of the safety and it gets intercepted. You cant throw deep balls obviously, and the fumbling is ridiculous. I honestly tried to like this game. I have been playing it since it came out until now. I have just come to the fact that this game isnt really realistic when it comes to the passing game. I am just hoping for a good game next year.
