It amazes me how fans of this game and more importantly the series squabble every year about certain features, or minor gameplay details. The fact of the matter is that over the years, other than features add or removed, the core game has felt the same for far too long. Madden 10 in all honesty has been one of the BEST versions they have made to date. As far as this engine/engines, or game goes (however you want to verbalize it), its not a BAD game at all, its just same ol, same ol. I am ready for a NEW, FRESH NFL Football experience. Different animations and physics and player movement. More intelligent, adaptive AI. Just a newer, better product overall. I fear we will never get this newer or better experience with Tiburon at the helm. They haven't changed much over the years and the game sells, so corporate EA is happy. Guess we will have to wait and hope EA eventually loses the exclusive license to see what other creative developers can do with the NFL experience. I for one would love to see what Sony's MLB The Show studio could do with the NFL with that level of detail. Or 2K putting a real effort into a next generation NFL title. Madden is just stale now.

If there was rep on this site i would give you some. this is exactly Maddens problem.
