I have been pleasantly surprised so far. I'm a sports freak and just got burned out over the years because that's all I played. It got so repetitive and boring (Madden, 2k, The Show). I haven't touched sports games in 3-4 years. I figured I would play 2 or 3 games and get bored again and barely touch it after the novelty wore off. It's absolutely incredible. I'm 4 games into a season and can't wait to get my hands on it tomorrow. It's been a blast so far. Can't recommend enough.
