In general, I tend to trust OS forums over any other source of review information. Hardly any reviews last year mentioned awful turnover issues in Madden/NCAA. Hardly any previews have mentioned it (on the mainstream sites) in previews this year. Clay's OS review gave it a 7 which I definitely don't think was warranted (the reader score is 8.5).

Anyway it is kinda pointless to keep going on and on. It has already been decided.
