Let me start off by saying that the last football game I owned was Madden '98 on Nintendo 64. I have played newer versions through the years on friends systems and enjoyed them immensely. I decided that I wanted to get a newer on for Xbox360. Being a cheapskate, I decided to wait for Madden '11 to come out and then buy '10 at a cheaper price.
Well now that I have it, I've played a few games with it and it is just flat out terrible. This game has left me more mad and frustrated and I haven't had any fun playing it. At all. This is the first game on Xbox I wished I hadn't spent money on (even though I only spent $20).
My biggest complaint is the A.I. is so wildly inconsistent that it makes the game not fun. On offense I will have a receiver get open, and throw the ball to him and by the time it gets there, 4 other defensive players will have managed to run 40 yds in 2 sec to defend my receiver. Linemen will also only block their assignment for a few seconds before they let up - this means you only have a short time in the pocket. Even when you're a strong team playing a weak team (Colts v. Browns for example). Yet if I'm on defense and the AI receiver gets open, its a touchdown so long as he catches it. My defensive backs can never catch the AI's receivers - regardless of who it is.
Playing on defense is just as worst. The A.I. will just have your defense completely blow their coverage or will even run the opposite way. For instance if a LB drops back in coverage and the computer runs a running play, the LB will continue to stay in coverage instead of going after the running back to the point that he will run away from the back, even if his coverage route takes him right by the back carrying the ball. Or often the receiver will run right by your corner without him moving, and only after he is beat will he start to chase the receiver. Completely unrealistic and inconsistent. The computer offensive line will also hold their blocks and give superior protection than they give you when you're on offense.
I do like the fact that the arcade feel is gone from what I remember back in the day (who remembers those 77-10 games?!!). But at the same time the AI is just too inconsistent for this game to be any fun. I wanted to like this game as I freakin' love football and wanted a good game for the next gen systems to play, but its just terrible and is no fun to play. Only reason I'm giving it two stars is because I think the graphics are pretty good.
