MY ps2 madden 10 review

(i always get madden for ps2, and ps3 every year but decided to do a ps2 review)

My Madden 10 PS2 Review

• Overall – enjoyable game, much better.

• Would I recommend it? –I would recommend it because gameplay is good, and the game overall is more realistic.

• Offense – everything is pretty much the same., Very smooth ,and seems slightly upgraded.

• Passing - Qb accuracy, and the way you release throws will be everything this year in the passing game.

• Running – seems like its harder to run, that makes it more fun. The impact of Highlight stick is toned down alot.

• Offensive Line – the offensive line seems to be blocking better. They give you decent time in the pocket for throws, and decent blocks when running.

• Defense – defense is better, but nothing extraordinary. Defense will have more of an impact of the games outcome.

• Tackling – tackling seems like its upgraded. Easier to tackle.

• Special Teams - more realistic. Not easy to return a kick for the easy 6 like before.


Other stuff

• Playbooks – playbooks are a little updated , some of them have less formations so they can be somewhat identical to the real life playbooks.

• Wildcat – I previewed miami’s playbook, yes it has the wildcat formation in It. The play selection is very little. I used the wildcat multiple times and I must say it is good, but it will definitely be abused.

• Rosters –Player ratings, and team overalls are very different than the next generation rosters.

• Game speed - game speed seems like it is slowed down, but Its very good like that.

• Camera modes - same camera modes.

• Impact camera – you can now feel the impact of a hard hit when the camera shakes. (impact cam)

• Commentary – so far I like the new commentary, its Pretty good.

• Graphics – somewhat better, but nothing extraordinary.

• Animations – pretty much the same animations with a few new ones though.

• Game Modes - same game modes.

• Fight for the fumble – I never had to use this yet. It is an option, so it can be turned off at the settings menu.

• Customize player moves – you can perform moves using the right analog stick instead of using the buttons for the moves.
(examples truck stick, jukes, stiff arm , etc all will be used with analog stick if you pick that option.)

• Ride the momentum – as a player progresses in the game they will be able to perform better, or worse with the momentum shifts. Improvements vary depending on the players position.

• in-game stats display - new in game stats display board(time of posession, drive summary, etc.)

• score board - new scoreboard. It kinda looks like the next generation score board.

• Online Play – madden 2010 is playable online. online play is pretty much the same. levels restart every year, meaning everyone starts off on level 1. your online record will be the same if you use that previous account. The green field is still the background at the main menu. The online population is very good, 600+ on the first day, and there will be more online players as time progresses. The d/c glitch still does exist (you both get losses), and so does the no win no loss glitch too.
