Re: So I Gave it a Shot

Only1LT and kpkpkp summed it up the best. Is Madden fun? Yeah, sure it is. However, we re in an age of gaming where what we expect from EA is NOT unrealistic. We have seen "other" football games already do the things we want done.For me, Madden is pretty looking, has nice pre-snap/coaching options and a playable franchise mode. One of my problems is that they re not even living up to their own strengths. Prior editions playbooks were better, prior pre-snap options were better [man lock, and individual bump and run anyone?] and prior franchise mode was better. The big update for me was run blocking. While not perfect, it is better than any other game before it. I am honestly enjoying NCAA more.

In the short run though, it doesn't matter at all to me. I m having fun with Fallout New Vegas and now Call of Duty Black Ops. Those are triple A titles that are worth their $60.
