I mean if Joe Gamer saw an interview on June 1st about a feature that is supposed to be in the game only for it to eventually not be in, thats a swindle even if EA subsequently admits that feature wont be in, who is to say that Joe Gamer sees the subsequent interview. So theyre awfullly fast and loose with information,...and ultimately their ace in the hole is an overly generous software law that restricts returns. Thats a swindle.

Nevermind.... its not worth the discussion.

And if people were in the 2k forums talking bad about that game and comparing it to Madden, the roles would be reversed. 2K fans would be directing those complaining to the Madden forum.

Am I right?

I don't think that anyone cares if someone has a complaint about Madden. Its the constant reminding and comparisons to 2k that get annoying.

Some of us want to discuss Madden and would like to do so without having to sift through the same negative posts time and time again, from pretty much the same people over and over again.

I think youre missing the point though. Are the complaints the truth? What are they comparing that EA hasnt addressed? I dont think its just 2k fans that complain about areas of the game that should have been addressed years ago, Most of the complaints are basic football related & its not 2ks faut they got it right & EA cant seen to match it. Give the gamers what they want then we can move on to the next issue. Its the same damn issues every year with EA... EVERY YEAR!!!!

From watching that video I don't see much of anything to get excited about. The animations still suck and the collision sounds are very arcadish. I HOPE THIS IS NOT AN INDICATION OF THE FINAL PRODUCT BECAUSE THE GAME DOES NOT LOOK MUCH DIFFERENT FROM LAST YEAR'S TO ME. The only thing that stood out in the video was the snow which looked good and more people on the sideline although once again they were motionless. COME ON EA STEP UP YOUR GAME THIS IS NOT TOO IMPRESSIVE!!! YOU DO THE SAME THING BASICALLY EVERY YEAR. PLEASE CHANGE THE GAME ENGINE.

No, I get your point. I am guessing that you read only the 2k part of my post and then responded.

As I said, some of us would like to discuss Madden(that means the good, the bad, and the ugly) without the same negative posts over and over again, especially the ones that keep referring to how 2k did this and 2k did that.

Again, if it was 2k that was taking the criticism, the roles would be reversed.

Ok, but take notice to what you just said. "Same negative post over & over again" Thats the problem....EA needs to address them after 4 yrs ya think or just change that slogan they have from "Its In The Game" into "Its just a game"..
