Who is gonna give Madden one last chance?

[thereisonly1#1]

Lately I've been torn by the fact i want a next gen football game to play, but don't want to get anything from Ea sports. I've watched all of apex vids and agree what he's saying. So here lies the problem. What do i do give Madden one last chance or keep waiting til a football game comes out that's really nex gen. I'm leaning towards getting Madden, but really don't want to support EA if they are gonna put out another sub par game.

Rent it then.

Im sure EA will manage to survive without your money either way.

Rent or borrow from a friend.

The best way to review it is to see or play it on your TV, not through Youtube or OS or other sporting websites.

You are the best reviewer.

I really hope EA comes thru this year. I miss having Madden tournaments and running thru everyone in the house.

This year is Madden's last chance, just like Madden 09 was, and Madden 08, and so on. It's my belief that as long as you are a NFL Football fan and have videogames as a hobby...it's never Madden's last chance. Last chance to me would be not coming to any Madden forums, and turning a blind eye to anything Madden football related. If you visit this forum or any other, chances are you won't do that. Anyone who says, "This is it..." is lying to only themselves.

Re: Who is gonna give Madden one last chance?

Actually this is my first time saying this the last year. Madden '08 i took back the next day. Madden '09 i rented and didn't even buy. This year is up in the air but whatever happen if they don't come thru i will not bother anymore. I play enough call of duty to satisfy my game addiction if needed.

My point is this: whether you buy the game or not this year, will you be here next year reading up on Madden '11? For most people, the answer is yes. When that's the case, I don't consider that giving Madden one last chance or providing a ultimatum if you will. If this is Madden's last chance and you're not impressed come August 14th, I say give up on Madden period. Why bother reading the forums or watching the vids?

See I neither understand nor do I believe this mentality.

So you are saying that if this game isn't good you will never buy Madden again? really?? You won't check out the boards next year to see what progress they are making? Yea sure.

I don't understand why we have threads like this. If this year isn't up to par, fine, don't buy it. But you know as well as anyone else that (as rgiles said) if you are a fan of the NFL you will be checking out what Madden has to offer again next year.

You may not buy it but you will still check it out.

Re: Who is gonna give Madden one last chance?

I give it a chance every year. There's little doubt in my mind that Madden will be tight in another year or 2.

Re: Who is gonna give Madden one last chance?

I bought Madden 08 and sold it on Ebay within the first week. Madden 09 got bought and returned before I opened it (later borrowed from a friend). Madden 10 will be bought on release day assuming the impressions hold up. The demo will also help me decide.

As for myself...I'm buying.
