Yes, buy it for sure. I have Madden and am not afraid to say that I think it's great this year. But I picked this up for $8 and am loving it. Yes it has glitches and franchise quirks but it's too dam fun.
The only issue I'm having is the CPU can't pass worth a dam, and I got it maxed out in sliders! That and there are a lot of int's. But I keep going back to it cuz it's so fun. Pick it up!
