5 out of 5 stars Best football game ever made   September 4, 2010
B. Soha (Mahwah, New Jersey)
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

First off, it is impossible to buy this game from reviews only. I highly reccommend Buying it used or renting it because certain people love it or hate it, but i believe that a lot of these bad reviews comes from people who just have some inexplicaple grudge against EA.

The fact is that the actual physics program, the mechanics of the game, are the best ever seen in any football game to date. The players' movements are perfect and highly interactive. It is by far the most realistic.

Where the problems lie, however, is in the actual gameplay. Many people say that the game has been modified to simplify gameplay for more leisure players, where the more radical players feel less challenged. The gameflow feature is brilliant for people who like to move through the game quickly (like me), but it take control away from you. At least that is the argument. Gameflow streamlines playing, however, it doesn't prevent players from picking their own plays. The 2010 playbook engine is still present, so i dont know why anyone complains.

Overall, it is an outstanding game, it was built for speed playing and conservative madden players, but it took control away from serious players.



5 out of 5 stars Madden is back to basics   August 11, 2010

First off, I own and have played every edition of Madden since it all began. Also, I abosolutely could not stand Madden 10 - while it looked good, it played terrible in my opinion and was about the worst in playability since 2005's iteration. Madden 11 gameplay is different from any of the others that EA has produced(both the raw physics and mechanics of playcalling have changed dramatically). In an effort to simplify play calling EA introduced a form of automated system. I chose to give this product an excellent review because Madden 11 has returned to the fundamentals of gameplay I enjoyed (especially running the ball). Key players (AI) react how the player would want them to react (i.e. throwing key blocks, holding the line in pressure moments, and catching critical passes). These elements have ben missing from the gameplay a long time. If you like "playability" and how Madden 2001 visually showed the ball being "aired out" after important plays, you will love this game. Online play is great! Graphics and player movement are not glitched how Madden 10 was (choppy sometimes). Also, the Madden Moments have really improved! They tweaked the final plays of greatest moments just perfect to only last a few minutes (how a moment showed be). The sound is awesome - no longer just rambling on and on... however, I do wish EA would return "Maddenisms" at some point. Make sure you also have 800 XBOX Live Points to play this one - for the MAX download package. And you may also wish to purchase "coins" which will help scouting the opposition as well as your own team... these can be earned or purchased. Earning them gives the player the ability to get an incentive for polaying online and will boost the players strengths on the field.

Simply put, if you loved how Madden should have been made since the beginning, play this game. Get used to the controls and you will appreciate Madden once again.




5 out of 5 stars Do you have game   August 11, 2010
Thomas A. Zulli (NY, USA)

Madden NFL is back for the 2010-2011 season and well it has made some major changes. First its simpler. You dont have to go through a ton of plays to pick one in 40 seconds. Now the computer will pick the best play for you. But if you like old fashion, you can still select plays..which you'll do more often then you think.

Also the animations on the field are stunning. No more ordinary boring catches and tackles. Not every play looks the same. Also there are more sideline animations to make it feel more like a football game on tv.

Now some have complained this is almost like last year, same features, same exact franchise mode...different.

Also what is new is the ability to play 3 on 3 online or co-op. Meaning if you can get 5 other players, you can actually play a team game. A downside to online is you have to pay a fee and to play it you need a 1 time only code (comes with the game). Once its used it cant be used again, so if you buy a used game..forget about playing online.

Overall great game.

Pros:
-Graphics
-Gameplay
-Animations
-Sideline animations
-3 on 3 online play

Cons:
-If you bought last year's...it probably will feel the same
-Nothing new to franchise mode
-Paying a fee to play online
-One time use code to play online. If you buy a used..forget playing online

This is the best Madden game that EA has ever made. The gameflow option is great. You can create your own gameplan, or have the coach call in the plays for you. This helps people mix up thier offense and defense, versus just picking the handful of plays they know.

I have no idea why people are rating this game so badly. The running game is so much better. You can actually run the ball effectively. Defense does not intercept every bad pass like they did in 09 and earlier.

The only reason some one would not rank this 3 stars or higher is they don't like the changes.

New kick meter is great, is like the pitch meter in mlb The show 10, and you can better adjust to online meter lag.

Strategy pad could use some work. But madden team is doing patches, so maybe it will go in.

Online team play is fun, except it lacks the depth of NHL frachines club play, and I wish the same camera was used for defense as it is for offense.

Defense Ai could use some work, but sliders can be tweaked for that.

This is the best Madden game that EA has ever made. The gameflow option is great. You can create your own gameplan, or have the coach call in the plays for you. This helps people mix up thier offense and defense, versus just picking the handful of plays they know.

I have no idea why people are rating this game so badly. The running game is so much better. You can actually run the ball effectively. The gameplay is as close to the actual game as it can be. Take a look at the game, and then look at an NFL football game. The tackles are much more similar to those in real life. Returning a kick off for a touchdown is more difficult and more real.

Overall, if you are a Madden fan and a football fan, this is the game to get. I Have gotten Madden every year since 2007, and can't imagine going back after playing this game. See this game for yourself and don't listen to the nay-sayers. People complain about Madden every single year it comes out, and yet the game sells millions and becomes more popular every single year. So, the people who complain are in the minority, and the people who are complaining probably complain every year the game comes out, yet they still buy it.

You couldn't pay me to give up this game. It's that good!
