When I ran my first kick out to the 26 from 3 yds in the endzone, and my head coach kicked the dirt, and my two sideline unfinished player models did their choreographed disappointment jump I knew I was in store for the same average to below average annual football simulator I have come to know as Madden NFL. This game is like that cousin you'd see at the holidays that your parents swore you were buddy-buddy with but actually hated their guts. 3-5/10
