Review: Madden NFL 11

August 10th, 2010 Donkey Biscuits No comments

Madden NFL 11 redefines the way you experience the game of football. Simpler—from 350 plays down to one, the all-new GameFlow system puts you in the helmet of an NFL quarterback, to execute an authentic, situational game plan, one play at a time. Quicker—with 60-minute game times reduced to 30, spend more time on the field and less in the playbook. Same drama, half the time. Deeper—Madden NFL 11 is feature-rich, with improved animations and control options, enhanced online functionality, and new broadcast and audio presentation that delivers the NFL experience fans have come to expect. Madden NFL 11. Simpler. Quicker. Deeper.
