Much like this guy, I get a lot of enjoyment out of the game by filling in the details of the 'story' with my imagination. Good review.

Yeah that was refreshing to read. I like that there is no score and the review reads like an extension of posts from our Impressions thread. You can tell Owen really did put a lot of time into the game and overall, seemed to like the new additions and improvements.

I'm looking forward to Tuesday.

Re: First review I've seen

That was a good review. I like how he put a more detailed and personal feel into it which made it a lot more enjoyable to read than an average review.


on a side note:

IGN has put theirs up also.

It's a 7.4

Good improvements, but still feels dated and generic is what the review boils down to.

Re: First review I've seen

i read through it, and liked what he said (especially the part about the K-State Wildcats). it only took me about 45 min to get to the end. i'm so brain dead after the holiday, it's probably not legal for me to even be out in public today.

Destructoid with a 6.5. Some valid criticisms, but really an outsider's perspective.

So far from the reviews it looks like the gameplay is better but still has flaws, the dynasty changes are welcomed, but the presentation still falls flat. That seems fair and unsurprising, really. I have already made peace with the lackluster presentation and am still excited for the game I am about to start playing.

Re: First review I've seen

I trust reviews from Kotaku and OS.. IGN and everything else can get out of my face, they usually don't know what they're talking about.

VERY excited after reading Owens review, especially the recruiting part. Finding gems at smaller schools is something I've wanted to be able to happen for awhile now. They had it really good on the PS2 days, and now it seems to be vastly improved again.
