All you guys who called this the best game ever....
They do. Like when Chris Johnson powers through a pile of 6 people, once or twice a game? That is pretty realistic, I always see Chris Johnson pushing the pile, then breaking out for 80 yard gains.
This is why I stopped playing already. Its stupid, and the least realistic thing Ive ever seen in a video game. There is no rhyme or reason to it. I get there with Briggs, her comes Urlacher, next is Peanut Tillman, and there goes Chris Johnson for a 91 yard TD run.
IMO, RosettaStoned is just playing to his schtick.
I absolutely agree Madden 10 is far from perfect.
But Rosetta, as usual, cries out for attention and wants everyone to believe it sucks.
It doesn't. It is what it is - a good, not great representation of NFL football.
I am having fun with it, but I am under no illusion that it's perfect.
This game is on the same level as 09 for me. I actually played 09 every day for a few months. I don't have the desire to play this game nearly as much because it's not as fun.
The running game is broken. It is utterly fucking ridiculous that a player can constantly come running through my OLine with a linebacker and hit my HB 2 yards in the backfield every single fucking time.
The flats are constantly open. Doesn't even matter what coverage you are in sometimes. I can't tell you how many times I've had guys complete swing passes or quick outs to the flats when I've been in a cover 2 zone with the man align off.
If you control a highly rated DEnd with good speed you can get instant pressure on the QB easily. If you control an average DE and try the exact method to get pressure you will fail. Stupid.
DBs cover way too much ground. If you hit a post route over the safety playing robber in a cover 3 zone the corner should not be able to break up the pass or even pick it off. It's not his responsibility, you've made the correct read, this super AI is stupid.
The speed difference between players is so silly that it's made this game childish. I didn't know that only super fast players can run outside the tackles. Every back below 90spd in this game cannot run outside of the tackles. And every back with 94+ speed can break tackles and run through piles of defenders like tecmo bo.
I could go on with more but I'm hoping you get it by now.
This game is shit. We were promised "next-gen Madden" and we got nothing. I kept my mouth shut and reserved judgment until the game released and now it's time to voice my opinion. Just as Rosetta is doing.
This game is flawed as much, if not more than 09. The only reason I'm actually upset is because of all the bullshit Ian Cummings and those dickless cowards at EA fed us all...fucking...year...long.
Hell, even if you don't think this game sucks you should at least be disappointed in the fact that the game isn't great after all the bullshit blogs and "community days" they gave us? What a joke.
one good thing about this thread is that everytime i think about trying to give this game another chance i read the stuff posted here and its a reminder of how awful this game is
i wish i was one of those guys who could find joy in this game, but unfortunately for me, the imperfections littered throughout this game make it unplayable for me

Meh, what is realism in a sports video game? Were you not part of the Tecmo Bowl crowd who use to run zigzag up and down the field every time and break 99 yard touchdown runs? Did you ever use Otis Anderson and frantically jamb on the "B" button to break tackles and get long runs? Did you ever throw 100 yard touchdown bombs to your receivers? Do you remember beating the computer like 100-7? Do you remember these days?
Its sad how our desire for realism has taken away our enjoyment from sports games, because there was a time before patches and the internets that we loved these games and abused the glitches. We use to brag to our friends that we could beat the computer by 100. My how have times changed. I am of the opinion that for some next gen and the desire for realism has ruined the sports video game genre.
Actually, I agree with Rosetta. I could go into lengthy detail of why this game stinks, but why bother? I've been doing it at OS like a broken fucking record, and hardly any of it will be fixed.
Is it a good game? Only if you compare it to Madden 08/09. It's not a good game if you compare it to actual good video games. We were promised gold via blog updates by who is quickly becoming just another half assed pitch man, and we ended up with a slighty better version of a game that isn't worth shitting on.
''I don't ever want to be compared to 2k5 again.''
What a fucking con.
The only way he can redeem himself, is by giving the game one hell of a patch.

maybe becasue as kids we all thoughts hey this is neat look what i can do. but as adults we realise that the game can be and is more fun when you play it like it is on the field on sundays/ i fail to see why it is such a big deal that we just want what we paid for and were promised. a game that doesnt suck so bad that it makes you want to break shit. the new stuff they put in is half assed and the old shit is still broken. the most fun i had with tecmo bowl was tecmo super bowl 3 where it actually tracked the players stats and let you run the team in a chise style for the first time ever. it also had create a player.

Wow way to articulate yourself big boy. I've always loved these internetz bad boyz 9 times out of 10 they are a fucking pussy in real life. I've seen your pics, assumption confirmed. How about getting off that little fucking kid shtick and actually trying to interact with people like i'm sure you do in the real world. I have no problem having an actual back and forth in regards to game play but starting off with "how fucking dumb are you" rarely leads to good discussion.
You can tell who is a pussy by pictures? That's weird, because this guy would beat the ever living fuck out of you.
Anybody who thinks they can tell if somebody is pussy by looking at a picture is a dumbfuck. BTW, I call dumbfucks, dumbfucks in real life.
You faggoty dumbfuck.
So, metaphorically speaking, our physiology basically has the universe mapped out and you're thinking it needs to be taught addition & subtraction.

Yeah, I used to think Donkey Kong and DOS programs were the shit too. Make a legitimate point please.

No princess I actually took the fact that your schtick is that of a 12 year old attempting to sound tough, added in the faggoty pictures of someone who appears to be 12 but is presumed to be much older before coming to the conlusion that you are a pussy.
So, way to type out a bunch of nothing, just to say the same dumb fucking thing again. Good job, dumbfuck.
It appears being a respectful adult is a skill you are still attempting to grasp see when us adults disagree we don't resort to childish name calling. I know it seems a bit hypocritical to post this while insulting you but since we are resorting to childish behaviors, You started it!
A bit hypocritical? You get trolled for two posts and you're acting just like me. It's a little trick I like to play on pseudo intellectual cunt noses on the internets. It's called trolling, and it's extremely easy to do to complete fucking morons who think they're smart.
