Unfortunately, of all of the responses, yours is right on point. I remember how much I disliked them back in the day - they'd make a new Madden for the SNES, Sega Genesis ... and it would be same one from the year before. Dog ... I wish a company would own them and force them to get off their sorry butts and create new features and enhance gameplay (I'm talking about sports, but the same goes for Burnout and Need for Speed as well.)

Yeah it sucks... but the good thig is that (hopefully) they will start losing money as soon as other companies start making better games (like pro evolution soccer) and they have to get of their butts... then again they might just buy the new and better games and start the whole process from the start... lets just hope that like every big empire they will be destroyed through their own arrogance and have no choice but to change and reinvent themselfs or die.... I wouldn´t mind if they die...

they wanna make alot of money,and i also think that they might make a console of their own and support it good



tag:"reviews only matter for the real hardcore gamer"

EA will announce the "all madden" console where the console costsw 200 and yoiu get madden and to upgrade to the next roster it costs an additional 40 dollars for no additional stuff like facial movements or nothing like that and to play online its a pay to play and its 20 dollars a month. this is what EA would love and to get otther games you have to pay another 100 to get the game and 40 for the next installment. until i can see detail in madden on the players themself like in fluid motion of the players im not buying anymore madden games.

It works for Microsoft. That is one of the things why some people don't like Microsoft. They spend more time buying their competition (when they are relatively nice), otherwise they just drive them out of business...



Cause EA wants to buy anything we know and love and suck all the life and innovation out of it then sell it back to us with multiple games of the series in less then a year, knowing some people will buy it, I personally played one EA game a couple years back and heard that chime at the start "EA... *wisper* Challenge everything" and was thinking whoa when did that happen, just goes to show how many EA games I buy. But that line is exactly what they do market everything they make to get sales then run down good companies to buy them get rid of the innovative developers in the studio and then push out shells of what the game once was.
