The penalties were definitely better in 2k5,and to add more "salt to the wound"....2k5 actually had offsetting penalties,when has Madden had this?

Unfortunately its the same issue in NBA Live. You can smash the steal button without consequence. Its frustrating and takes away from the game..

And a challenge system that actually worked, unlike in this game where you're not always allowed to challenge plays yourself. So the ai does this for you for some odd reason, and even then the game still gets it wrong. My coach has lost challenges that were clear fumbles, TDs, and twice I've seen my qb called for roughing the passer, even worse that I was playing on defense. I've never seen that in all my years playing 2K5.

Wow! I guess you and those like me want very different games . . . I struggle to understand how someone could want to play an NFL football game that did NOT replicate the real NFL in something as important as penalites.

Be that as it may, I continue to hope that Madden will eventually make a football game that does, in fact, replicate football . . .

Why does it have to be no penalties at all, or completely random penalties that upset people by taking wins away???

The game has penalty sliders. MAKE THEM WORK! Then, if you dont want penalties, turn them off. If you do want penalties turn them on.

Why is this SO hard?

They say a lot of things. they also said that QBs would miss passes realistically this year, and now robo QB is worse than ever. you cant believe anything they say. Everything they release to the public is designed to increase sales, and thats all. I fell for the hype this year again for the first time in years, but not next year.
