Sometimes a game comes along that defies all expectations, but not in the way that will blow your mind. Instead it's the circumstances surrounding a game's existence that brings hope and potential to an otherwise ordinary experience.

It always surprises me to hear gamers complain about sports games, as if they have no place in the gaming world. Whenever Madden of FIFA comes up at E3, the commentators groan and joke that it's time for a toilet break or some other derisive remark. It surprises me because not only are sports games some of the highest selling games in the world every year, but they still games and playing games is pretty much the MO of a gamer.
What's that saying? Fool me once… fool me twice… blah blah blah… being fooled repeatedly is equal to foolishness. I'll admit, I've been a fool with the Battlefield series, and with EA in general, but I'm consistently amazed at how one series can be so terrible and beautiful at the same time.
