Nice. Fix a few grammatical rough spots and this is one of the best of your reviews this year. You painted the perfect picture of playing this game with a friend by providing key details that also highlighted the options the game provides. I'll see if I can find some screenshots to go with it. :-)


"Too often we enjoy the comfort of opinion without the discomfort of thought." - John F. Kennedy on reality

"What if everything you see is more than what you see--the person next to you is a warrior and the space that appears empty is a secret door to another world? What if something appears that shouldn't? You either dismiss it, or you accept that there is much more to the world than you think. Perhaps it really is a doorway, and if you choose to go inside, you'll find many unexpected things." - Shigeru Miyamoto on secret doors to another world2

You and your grammer fixes... It should be enough that I'm often somewhat coherent.

I'm surprised at the glowing reaction. This was pretty much an old-school write-the-review-in-the-sub-box that I threw up after having the idea of how to structure the review -- which is the opposite to how I usually do things (think up and intro, ramble until I can tie it back up again at the end), so thanks for the comments. I'll pretend it wasn't just a way to nice up the "Stop typoing like a monkey!" for the sake of my ego.

Yeah, like how your little narrative about you and your friend playing the game was entertaining, yet incorporated important aspects in the game.

At least know you know if I ever go missing it's because I've scored another match-winning header in the 92nd minute and my best friend of fifteen years has bludgoened me to death with a shovel.

Nice review, champ.

That was an interesting review. It's funny, with EA's American football NCAA and Madden series', I've always been completely focused on the franchise mode, building up a blah/average team into a juggernaut and never really cared about the multiplayer stuff. You tackled this game in the exact opposite manner and did so in an engaging way I really liked. It's essentially looking at a sports title, but from the exact opposite way in which I'd do so.
