Product Description
Designed to make Madden a much more realistic experience, Madden 10 brings a whole new set-up to the game using the new Pro-Tak, some changes to the presentation, and adjusted settings. This provides a more lifelike feel to the gameplay. But if you’re not looking for true-to-life, there are plenty of settings that can be tweaked so the game plays more like the arcade-style Madden games of yesteryear…More >>

Maybe just because this is my first year getting Madden for PS3 (Madden 09, I had on xbox 360), but this game seems to not be as visually appealing as Madden 09 was on xbox 360. The graphics are fine, but the play and smoothness in the animation seems to be lacking, everything has stiff, and choppy feel to it.
And it seems like they’ve missed some minor details that really turn me off. One of which is having the ball spin the wrong direction when the ball is passed. The ball should spin clockwise when a righty throws a pass… not counterclockwise, that goes against physics.
Otherwise I think it’s a pretty good football game that it always is, but last year’s version did more for me.

I’ve only been playing Madden for a few years, but among my friends who’ve been playing the series for a while, many felt that the older versions on the PS2 were better than 09. Madden improves with its 2010 version. Madden ’10 has much more to offer than ’09, but also has some shortcomings.
MORE REALISTIC
Gameplay looks incredibly realistic. Graphics and broadcast also are more realistic, and at times makes you think you’re watching TV instead of playing a video game! The use of different camera angles make it a lot like a broadcast, and I especially like the depth-of-field, which makes the game look so much cooler since the background is blurred, drawing your eyes more to the object in focus.
CO-OP MODE
The new co-op mode feature is a lot of fun if you want to play with someone else. It adds to the whole online experience that’s permeating the console-gaming world. The downside to this mode is that only the host controls the plays (the guest only sees the play after it’s been selected). This in itself makes it almost essential to maintain constant contact with your partner to better coordinate, i.e. via headset.
ONLINE FRANCHISE MODE
There is an improved online play experience, online franchise mode. This is a HUGE improvement from last year’s online leagues. It really feels, well…real! That being said, there are shortcomings, such as an inability to trade draft picks. Still, a great feature.
COST/THE MONEY ISSUE
Like EA’s NBA Live 09 Dynamic DNA, online franchise mode is a seemingly helpful feature that comes at a hidden cost: only buyers of a new copy can benefit. Your box comes with a code to authorize the franchise; while this is a useful feature to conceivably halt piracy, the real sufferers are used-game buyers.
I understand that they want to prevent piracy, but they really hurt people on tighter budgets that are true fans of the NFL, but might not be able to afford a new game, or find it questionable to pony up more money just to participate in the online franchise mode. Some say you can’t blame EA for trying to make a few extra bucks, or that a few dollars isn’t a big deal. Yes you can, and to some, yes it is!
To seal the deal on this argument, is the ELITE Madden mode. Elite players can play ranked matches on All-Madden difficulty settings. In other words, UNLESS YOU PAY $5 EXTRA, you WON’T be able to play on All-Madden difficulty for ranked matches…
More realistic gameplay, online franchises, and co-op mode are great features in Madden ’10 that makes this much more worth getting than Madden ’09. That being said, this game is very representative of the trend in video-gaming towards a more tiered system (which I’m not a fan of!). But still, a great game, highly recommended

I think it sad for how much money EA makes off of us every year that they can’t give us what we want.
Of course the 2k versions are better and will be until EA put the money into actually making a better one. EA hasn’t made a top of the line football game since they first appeared on the seen with the 1st versions they back in the Super Nintendo/ Genesis era, so back when I was young about 20 years ago. What a joke.
We all should be making blogs about how the NFL is a bunch of greedy jerks to let EA have exclusive rights. We should let them know THAT WE WANT OTHER GAME DEVELOPERS TO HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO MAKE FULL SIMULATION FOOTBALL GAME TO COMPETE WITH EA.
We should also be letting them know that Vick does deserve another chance, but he should only be allowed to play at the leauges minimum salary. He is being paid 1.6 million to play with the Eagles. *&^% him! Let him earn the chance to be paid and proove first he is going to help the National Humane Society for a couple of years then he can get paid.
