Nintendo Life writes: "Taking its graphical cues from the recent Grand Slam Tennis, Madden NFL 10 on Wii eschews the hi-def emphasis on recreating every detail of the game, favouring a more stylised - though hardly cartoony - approach to the presentation. Defensive backs are bulky chunks of muscle, wide receivers are gangly running machines and everything's slightly more caricatured than in other incarnations. The animation is fantastic, with players hurdling over despairing dives and spinning away from tackles, and the all-new "Spotlight Moments" slow the action down to a QTE-style event where a quick flash of the Remote can see your receiver escape a last-ditch takedown or take a big hit and lose the momentum. Presentation-wise, as always, EA excels with an engaging and innovative-looking game that, for once, makes the most of what the Wii can do rather than draw unfavourable comparisons with its bigger brothers."
