Owner Reviews, Ratings, Comments and Criticism
I have never picked up an EA game until I bought my DS a couple months ago, and I had to try this, given the hype. Since I am a newbie, it seems overwhelming to try to pick up on all the nuances, the various plays, which player to control, how to control the kicker (both power and accuracy) and the like, but you know what? It is a heck of a lot of FUN! I play with my favorite team, the Vikings, and Adrian Peterson will still break off a 70 yard run despite my flaws on which buttons to mash. I have started the training modes, and can give an update later, but if you are a football fan, this is a must have.
