But again, how can you base it on track record when...

1. The people they usually brought for community day were people who made madden sites and were madden challenge competitors when this year they have brought in people who gave a ton of constructive feedback about past madden games and/or have bashed madden?

2. This year's community day was earlier than it was in years past and therefore they have more time to tune things based on feedback.

3. A large part of this change was due to Ian now being the head of the game.

Like really... it's much much more than just good PR (especially when most casuals probably don't even know what OS is).

No, I said EA could read off of the boards in the past. I have never said at any point that they had been there before.

I don't get what you are trying to say in the second paragraph. Maybe lay off the hard stuff before posting...

The funny thing is I don't even care much about the no sim players but just compare the players in the 2k5 tourney to the Madden tourney players. The stuff they can pull in Madden makes the game not even a football game anymore. Dropping your entire defense in coverage?! CMON! Again there is something wrong FUNDAMENTALLY wrong with a so called SIMULATION football game when you can even accomplish that. ROOKIE OR ALL-MADDEN.

Sliders this year tho!

I can base off track record because EA puts up silly gimmicks and people fall for them every year. Having OSers come to Orlando is a gimmick whether you want to think about it that way or not. It's good business sense to have positive hype around you. That way, EA can go out and say that hardcore gamers like it, and this will be the best sports game ever.

I hope EA did take their advice. I would love to see a great football game out of Madden 10. I'm saying that I wouldn't get my hopes up because of Maddens 06-09.

Ian is the new head of the team... so he wasn't the one that made the game like that in the past...

Ian has basically said that he wanted to keep rookie and pro modes the same in terms of play since casuals enjoy playing the game that way.

All-pro and all-madden got the most tuning and like I said before, this year the difference in rookie/pro and all-pro/all-madden will be the biggest they ever were in a madden game due to this.

Or maybe I can't dumb down my English to understand what he wrote. I'm guessing he's saying that I have never played Madden in the next- gen series. That would be a lie, considering I own Madden 07 and have rented the past two versions. I still play 2k5 on a regular basis though.

Of course, I can't understand seventh- grade English, so maybe he wasn't saying that. If so, my apologies.
