HA!, man I didn't even watch the IGN one....so far the GT review towards the end basically tells you to buy Madden at full price and get it at launch......and this OS review, well, I'll just let others speak on it.

but I just presumed IGN's would be even more transparent....gonna have to check it out.

Nah roll with IGN impressions. They had me at first, now that more guys have the game, its been an Offense fest.

Trut me friend, on Offense scores are gonna be super high. i gave positive reviews at first, but now that the wolves are out, I ahve a whole new opinion.

I was wondering how long the "slanted review, suspicious review" blah blah blah posts would take.

I only played the Demo for about an hour, So I will reserve judgement until I get the retail.

I've been playing it for about two weeks. A friend of mine got the game eearly..he works for a small video game shop so he let me have it for a few weeks. I didn't buy it.

The game is better then 10 don't get me wrong, but come on, it's still missing that wow factor. Madden is getting stale.

I am going to have to RESPECTFULLY disagree with this review. First and foremost it reads like a Preview....and a very defensive one at that.

There is no breakdown of positives vs. negatives...This is most definitely one sided.

Also I wasn't aware that Pro-Tak was based off of phsyics.....

Madden 11 has been scored a 9 (exceptional) .....Yet the negatives listed Franchise and Superstar mode are the same as they have been for the entire next-gen lifecycle....not to mention there are plenty of other issues plaguing this game (I own an official copy).....

I'll see you all on Sunday, with my own personal assessment of Madden 11. (Maybe even earlier).

There're some negatives in there Bigsmallwood... but the reviewer did neglect to mention defense and special teams. ST is ok as its not a huge % of Madden playing time. But it looks to me like our reviewer didn't review half the game...

Also gentlemen , let me add that you can criticize and disagree with this review all you want, constructively...as I feel I have in the post above.

NO "OS is bought off by EA, wow they're sucking up to Ian" type crap. You'll be warned/banned.

Sorry if I came across as bashing OS. I disagree with the reviewer, not OS.
