Stick with 09? 09 was one of the worsts Maddens so far! I haven't felt anything wrong with the controls, but I think you are talking about the momentum while running. It just makes the game more realistic, and it isn't difficult to navigate around. Offline franchise is the best ever and so is the overall gameplay. Online franchise, although limited, is also very fun just because you are playing with your friends. Superstar is very stale though. And I'm right there with you Fiin, paying Microsoft points for upgrades is stupid.
After beating Oblivion, Shivering Isles, and Knight of the Nine with my one level 30-something character in Oblivion, I noticed I was missing one achievement that I needed another character to complete. So I created another character, leveled him up to 25, and got it.
And I was so excited when the DLC came out, I even bought the horse armor and thought it was the coolest thing ever. D'oh!
For me, it had to be in NFL Street. I had to do a challenge and shut out the lions in a game to 20 on the hardest difficulty (They weren't the crappy lions that they are now either). The reward were gloves that upped a QB's passing by 3, which would give my QB a full passing bar. I wanted to win that challenge so badly. I tried for 2 hours and I won nothing. I must have threw my controller 4 times. I finally completed it, but I was red with rage.
Did everybody forget about "Prototype"? It comes out in February and, if good as advertised, could easily be game of the year. It's like a mix between GTA and Dark Sector. Looks amazing.
