Was so hopeful this game would be a good step in the right direction. EA ruined this game with glitches and bugs that take the game’s evolution back a decade (and that’s being nice). I might have to go back to the Dreamcast days to find a similar football game. Being able to run to one sideline and throw to the other for a completion, defenders’ lack of responsiveness in the secondary, and the hit stick causing an arcade like hit every time you connect are all examples of the junk you will find in this game. I want to love this madden so much because of how much I play football games this time of year. As a developer, I cannot imagine the idea of putting such a buggy application out and charging people for it.
