The good thing about Madden games is that they always try and add new features and gameplay elements to each new release, to help keep the games fresh but still keep fans of the series happy.

The pace of this American football game for the Playstation 3 is noticeably slower than its predecessors but this improves the game overall, for example playing as a running back you are able to find holes in the defence or your quarterback is able to pick his pass.

The graphics are pleasing to the eye and the player interactions are very realistic. Whether it’s a big hitting tackle of a perfect pass into the N-zone you know what to expect from the EA Sports series and Madden 10 does not disappoint.
