Could be better
PostedDecember 27, 2010
Its pretty good, better then 10, but there are still a few problems they still need to adress. First off, the dropped interceptions are still a problem. Its annoying to see one of your players have a sure interception and then they drop it more then half the time. Another problem is no announcing in Superstar mode. Its a fun mode, but it would be soooo much better if it had announcers. It feels empty with no announcers. They have also put in a few new game modes, like you can play the Superbowl, and GameFlow is a big help to people who have never played this before or people who dont know what plays to pick.

Still needs a lot of work - Still a great game
onJanuary 25, 2011
Ive been playing the Madden series for as long as i can remember. This years game had a few improvements, the sprint button was removed and the running controls were enhanced so it is not as hard to run the ball as previous madden games. I like the option to use throwback jerseys. I like the fact they added new touchdown celebrations from the likes of chris johnson, sims-walker, and still have culpeppers "get yer roll on" move. The game has a lot of problems still. Kick and punt returns are easier then they have ever been. You can fake out the whole kick return defense by faking right and running left with any decent speed returner on punts and kickoffs when using punt block return defense. I find myself trying not to score as it almost feels like cheating after taking 3 back in one game. The commentary is often incorrect, if you catch a punt in the end zone and run through the back of the end zone the announcer will call it a safety instead of a touchback (of course it is a safety on kickoffs but not punts). The advertisements are annoying and repetitive, old spice, verizon, doritos - the game doesnt need this. Chris Collinsworth's voice does not belong in any video game. I hate the fact that it is hard to recover a fumble when it puts you into button mashing mode. I lose the fumble 90 percent of the time. When playing defense and attempting to switch to the closest defender to the ball carrier, the game does not always select the closest defender. What happens here is that I assume I get the closest defender and hit the dive button but i dont get the closest defender and it makes a defender downfield dive. This sometimes happens 3 times in a row leaving all your defenders on the ground. I expect to get the closest defender to the ball...it doesnt happen, this is the most frustrating flaw. Its been said already that interceptions are too easy. The only good thing about this is that you throw as many as you takeaway so it works both ways. Overthrowing receivers is also a big problem...I could understand overthrowing someone if im pressured or am on the run...but the overthrows happen when i have a receiver wide open 50 yards downfield or on important 4th down conversions. These arent minor 2 yard overthrows either, these are typically awful looking 10-20 yard overthrows. I understand not everyone is peyton manning but this happens often enough to get angry about. When you get a pick 6 sometimes a stat box pops up stating that the qb you just picked off received a pass td. The td celebrations are pretty generic and awkward looking except the designed specialty ones i referred to earlier. All others are quite boring. On hurry up offense mode sometimes one of your lineman will line up 5 yards ahead of where he is suppose to. You will need to audible out of your play and pick a new one to get him lined up properly. The crowd looks pretty sucky, the bench players could look less sucky. I ultimately think this is a good game but when it comes to Madden - it has been around so long it should be without error and should blow any other game with a football in it - out of the water. I wish more concentration would go to graphics, commentary, and gameplay rather than new features "defensive coordinator commentary" (seems call of duty-ish) and "fight for fumble recovery." I'll continue to buy the game but not for the reasons they think I will.

Madden 11 is the worst game I have ever played.
PostedDecember 26, 2010
Madden 11 is probably THE worst game I have ever played. There is absolutely nothing redeeming about it what-so-ever. There are so many flaws it is unbelievable. Running is the only good thing about it. Passing is AWFUL. Half of your thrown passes are incomplete or just thrown to random spots. It is very frustrating and I wish i never got it. If you like Madden 11, that's fine with me but it is definitely not for me.

Madden 11 is the best football game ever!
PostedDecember 25, 2010
Madden 11 has made it to the top of sports gaming for the next 10 years. The graphics look like a real NFL game, puting Gus in the game was a big move, and with the new my player who knows how good madden could get!
