Name 1 thing Madden 10 did well

Posted on September 18, 2009 at 02:31 PM.

I know I've been tough on Madden 2010 but me and millions of loyal fans just want a NFL game done right. I consider the negative comments left on numerous madden boards to be tough love for a game that we as consumers wish was a lot better. I'm going to use this post to highlight the one area of Madden that I think was done well and thats QB play. I'm not talking about playing against the CPU because they all suffer from robo QB and they are all great especially at the end of a game.

I'm talking about the fact that user controlled QBs feel a lot more realistic than in previous versions of Madden. Its not perfect and there are some areas that need ironed out like PA rtg, throw on the run rtg, etc but overall the signature throwing motion of the QBs has been done well. When I use McNabb it feels like I'm using him. He makes some great throws but has some serious wtf moments like in real life. I know that if I bring Vick off the bench, I have to keep it simple with passes take advantage of his rocket arm on slants, outs, and hitches. Timing and touch passes is not something you want to throw with him for fear of getting picked. Again, when playing other people not the CPU it feels like I'm scheming and trying to stop the actual counterpart in Madden so job well done EA.

Sound off if you think there is another area of Madden that you think is done well
