That bad, huh?

The bugs are disappointing, but this is the first time I've really felt like I'm playing a next-gen (can we start calling it current gen now?) sports game.

I don't know if its surpassed the hype, since the hype was pretty strong. But it's lived up to it for sure.

Amen brother. When I read that, I thought to myself, "so The Show is shallow, repetitive and dull?"

Call of Duty 4 was amazing. Anyhoo, back on topic.

I second that motion, love NHL 08 but it would be nice to see what SCEA could do.

I'm pretty sure the same 1st party conditions apply to the NFL.
