I'll put as much effort into this review as EA put into their sports games which is not a lot. Sooo anyway:

Pros:
- Looks nice
- Playable enough mainly because there isn't an alternative

Cons:
- The game is very exploitable and lacking realism. More of an arcadey sports game than a sim. Sliders were needed to be played with constantly after every update because more issues would be created rather than issues resolved
- Pretty much the same game as last year
- Still hugely lacking in immersion
- Even by EAs standards, the live service aspect of the game was ridiculously half-assed. Live fixtures which were one of the more enjoyable aspects previously was non-existent this year

I refuse to play MUT so can't comment on anything online. Overall, it's Madden. I played the hell out of it but I don't exactly feel great about it
