I take it all back! I caved in when I saw Madden on the shelf in my local Best Buy and I had to have it!

I'm using mkharsh33's sliders and I really believe this is the best Madden game yet! Yes it has it's problems but I'm really loving my football again now! I didn't have to post this but I felt I owed it to you guys that are still sitting on the fence.

Sounds like me, although I haven't been to a GameStop or Best Buy yet. I know I said that I'm waiting for the patches and a price drop, but I'll probably cave before then.

Well... 2k5 for me still.

Thanks for a tell-it-like-it-is (or as you honestly see it) review. Refreshing. Haven't bought the game yet. Almost did today, but my local Walmart was out of the PS3 version. Won't be in a rush to get it now, though I'm sure I'll eventually break down.

thats because now it's "cool" to hate madden.

I believe the review is fair and straight on. I have the game and I completely agreed with the pros and cons of the game.

After buying Madden for the first time since Madden '10, I'm really enjoying my experience with Madden '12. I think the gameplay is a lot of fun and feels fresh. The only thing I dislike is the commentary - Gus Johnson is TERRIBLE!!!!!

Is there a review for the PS3 version of this game? If not is there a reason why the game is only reviewed on Xbox 360? I ask because after reading through the forums it looks like the PS3 version no where near as good as the 360 version especially when it comes to graphics, field and lighting issues. I have seen the game on 360 and PS3 and the 360 version is far and away better. Would like to hear from actual reviewers on this issue instead of forum posters. Can you please comment on this?
