Wow im surprise they are taking this seriously. Hope they took that rewind feature crap if they are going for sim style. But im really surprise they are taking the sim style seriously, the last time they took this seriously was madden 05 still the best madden i ever played. This is the new team for madden right if they are i like this team.

They've never taken it this seriously. In my opinion Madden 05 might have been less buggy then subsequent Maddens, but I don't think it was any more sim oriented.

The introduction of Playmaker in M04, and accompanying gameplay mechanic changes, began a streak of gimmick based games in which fundamental gameplay/A.I. flaws were at best band-aided over, and more often totally unchanged.

We've only seen some of the changes they're making for Madden 10, but what we have seen represents unprecedented shifts in the core gameplay for this series.

The name is the same, but I feel like its a brand new game with this being the first version of this new Franchise.

Im definitely a harsh critic of Madden, but I have to say that I am liking what I am seeing. Hopefully, and Im sure it will, my 2 main areas of complaints are being worked on. Tv style presentation, and the running game( IE holes, and less suction blocking and tackling)

If they are thug gangsters to you you need to get out more.

I've not seen much of it, but what I've seen hardly made me want to watch more lol.

The "thug gangster" comments could be seen as racist by the way...

Watch a couple of the shows sometime, these guys are ridiculous.

Screaming in each others faces like if they said something back they would pull a gun on them right then and there over a game.

And then watching how they play the game.

Sickening.
