Very good game!
Graphics are as usual, 1 year behind Madden. Very good, but Madden shows potential for better.
Kicking uses different controls than Madden. Why?
Why EA Sports can't manage to get their two football franchises on the same page is dumbfounding.
Online team builder is a let down. There is zero reason why that cannot be directly included in the game. Programs to accomplish the team builder task are relatively small, easily included in game. Are they getting a kickback from Microsoft by forcing people who don't even want to play on online to get an XBOX online subscription just to download their team? A very reasonable question if you ask me.
Despite pointing out some minor flaws the game is very good and lots of fun to play. Maybe these minor flaws stick out because the rest of the game is so good.
