Good score, should be a little higher, i got the retail copy and its a HUGE improvement over 09 in every aspect.

How is it that NCAA got a 9.3...but Madden gets an 8.9? Oh well...Still a good score.

Finally a decent review by IGN. I'm still surprised they overlooked the sheer wonkiness of some of the animations, though.

8.9 means it's a good game, but still not up to par with NFL 2k5 or Madden NFL 05 for that matter.

It's time for a great change of gameplay. IGN even stated that the game didn't feel too different from Madden NFL 09, which had pretty average gameplay.

EA, it's time to make animations 100% fluid and natural looking for Madden NFL 11 as well as to get a grounded gameplay system working.

Too many times we have huge gameplay jumps from one year to the next. It's time to get a working system to build upon (that doesn't consist of inconsistent and odd looking animations).

2K did it, and so can you, just don't neglect people's pleas and try to "Maddenize" everything. Maddenizing got you an 8.9, which is great, but not what you probably expected. It's what you'll have to do to reach the 9.5 category.

Good luck with Madden NFL 11.

.1 higher than madden 09. what does that mean? its mean the same game with a touch up in graphics. i agree with the article, THIS IS THE BEST LOOKING MADDEN but thats where it stops

The AI still runs out of bounds for no reason! WTF Ian? That really pisses me off. I'll wait 'till OS's review before I start tearing my hair out. IGN never puts that extra detail I look for in sports game reviews. I feel like the air has just been pushed outta my sails.

Wow only .1 better than last year. I expected more of a jump considering the subpar game EA put out last year. Dont get me wrong im still pumped for the game though. Hopefully next year they can continue to develop on the Franchise mode and online Franchise mode and Half time and Extra Point Show. If they revamp the running animations and iron out a few kinks this game will make the jump we have all been waiting for.
