Gimmick to you possibly, a lot of people will enjoy it I'm sure.

Lol. Reaction Time is just plain stupid. "The game slowing down" for an athlete refers to being in the zone and feeling all that practice and hard work take shape on the field. Time does not literally slow down. In fact, this same "in the zone" feeling is already happening for those who play this game religiously; they're seeing and reacting to on-field events quicker than your average player.

The fact that the devs say that pressing a trigger to make time slow down replicates what top athletes see on the field truly makes me question how much athletics these guys were involved in in real life. It's seriously baffling. Just call it what it is; an arcade style feature implemented for the casual, majority crowd.

To in any way infer that Reaction Time is some sort of realistic take on top-tier athleticism is laughable.

Those that have cared enough to play a full career with their all-time favorite players have been doing it for a decade now using create a player and/or player editing. Some even take it a step farther by utilizing historical rosters.

So what exactly has been added that wasn't available to us before? A unique interface, some interviews, a goal system? So? The Heisman players don't do anything special. They don't look anything like they did in real life, you're stuck playing with them in modern equipment, uniforms, stadiums and teams.

I have no doubt many people will enjoy this, but I also have no doubt that the only people that will enjoy it are the ones that have already been doing it for a long time.
