One of the many reasons why EA keeps losing money. They don't care about their customers, just milking their franchises! Hope you keep losing money EA!!!

No that's Activision

Why doesn't EA just gives money to their costumers, they would probably lose less money and keep their costumers happy :P

but seriously, not even local multiplayer for a sports title is just horrible.

I don't know you.



Above: still the best game of the year.

I'm not surprised ...

Madden is being released along with the 3DS because EA almost always has a Madden game with a console launch; but the 3DS is releasing too late for this version of Madden to be particularly popular, and it makes more sense to focus your resources to making Madden 2012 better than expending them on this game.

EA are always bad with their first versions of games to new consoles.  They place such importance on getting the game out by console release that they strip back features that were in previous versions of the game. Nothing new, wasn't going to be buying this anyway.

Overexaggerated OP leads to overexaggerated thread.

Considering the highest selling Madden game on the DS was 300k, I think EA are playing it safe by not throwing in features onto a game that hasn't really dont well on the DS in the first place...Interestingly enough, the PSP versions of madden have all sold over 500k (except for Madden 11). Only reason I bring that up was because my original theory was that Madden doesn't sell on handhelds in general. x.o

You expected EA to take the 3DS seriously?
When it tanks they'll come with the same excuses. Nothing new.

Yeah, but it still boggles my mind. I don't know a single person who buys sport games for the single player.
