This statement hold truth. I just wish they wouldn't come out every year and claim that things are going to be so much better than the year before. Instead, they should say that they are making improvements and hope that we like them. Then, if most of us hate the improvements or lackthereof, then they should seriously rethink using the current engines they are running right now in both NCAA and Madden football games. I used to love Madden NFL games back in the 1990's and Madden 05 is the only in the current decade worth playing IMO.
They need to listen to our concerns and nail them down to a wall while they are developing Madden 12. Even if they did implement a physics based behavior engine and some things were left out, most of us would be fine with that if the gameplay was nailed down. They would have to build from the ground up and I am 100% fine with that idea.
