GAMES

We just posted our review of Madden NFL 10 for the Xbox 360 and, given that the two games are so similar, you're probably wondering why we haven't also reviewed the PlayStation 3 version. The answer is simple: We haven't played it. More to the point, we haven't received it from EA yet.

The Xbox 360 version arrived almost two weeks ago, so we've been able to spend plenty of time with it. The Wii version, which we'll have a review of up soon, wasn't too far behind it. There's still no sign of the PS3 version though, despite our requesting one from EA on August 6 and subsequently being told that at least two or three copies were sent to GameSpot last week. Did those copies get lost in the mail? Is the PS3 version deliberately being withheld because it's inferior in some way? Or perhaps the PS3 version is even better, and the feature that lets you design plays on your PSP and then import them into the game is awesome? We just don't know.

What we do know is that we're not going to post a review of the PS3 version until we've spent time with the PS3 version. We're told by EA that the X360 and PS3 games are “identical”, but we prefer to judge that for ourselves. And we will, just as soon as we can get our hands on a PS3 copy.
