PS3 Madden Players

[Dr. Gonzo]

After all the bullshit I ended up keeping my PS3 and getting Madden for it. Who wants a game?

[Trainwreck2100]

lol

hey man if someone held a gun to a loved one and said fuck a cat, let your loved one die or agree treyarch isn't a hack crap developer i'd have no choice

[Sausage]

My PSN is Titans10Texas, will put the game in for the first time in a bit.

[dirk4mvp]

Talk about losing wood. From the possibility of getting a 360 to sticking to the ps3 :depressed

No shit. I would've just lost too much of my initial investment to switch.

Yeah but the 360 is cheaper so who cares?

[Dr. Gonzo]

Nice game Thunder Dan. I didn't mean to log off so quick without saying good game but my dog pissed off the wifey.

I should've gone for the FG on the first drive instead of going for the TD. It would've been tied.

yeah it was a good game. We will have to play again. I can already tell the one problem people will have with the game is that they made Brady Quinn unstoppable

[Dr. Gonzo]

It's just an accurate portrayal of the real Brady Quinn.

Anyone want to play? basically a free win. I'm wait about 10 mins or I'll just find a random game, PSN name WiCkEd_Co

I do have a 360 but rented Madden for PS3.

RevMidge just beat me with his game genie :lol. It was a good game but I could not stop the side pass....I never been good at Madden. I stop getting into football games when NFL2k became no more. I loved running in that game and hate it on Madden.

[dirk4mvp]

fwiw, the running game on 10 is vastly improved. Joseph Addai went from being completely useless in 09 to being a best in 10.

Why did you rent the PS3 version?

I dunno it just feels like I'm running on rails, On 2k I could cut like nothing on Madden it's more of a curve rather than a quick cut left/right

[Slydragon]

Why did you rent the PS3 version?

More "real friends" I know have that one over my Xbox live only friends, plus its gamefly and my brother wanted to buy it, after my discounts it comes out to a bit over 40 for the game and he only has a PS3.

[Thunder Dan]

I've come to the conclusion that I hate this version of Madden. You can't even play defense. You just pick plays and hope the offense fucks up. The guys are always out of position, and even when you scheme well, you can't stop the offense. You can torch all zones. Blitzes never get to the QB, and if you run to the outside corners you will get atleast 5 yards. And if you run up the middle you will easily get 4

[Dr. Gonzo]

Maybe you should use a team with a decent defense.

[Thunder Dan]

Maybe you should use a team with a decent defense.

dude the Browns have one of the best defense in the league. The problem is the game, not the Browns.

[z0sa]

this version of madden sucks just like the others. It's a game I'd approve of downloading, don't waste your money and don't support EA sports.

[Dr. Gonzo]

Thunder Dan

Rematch tonight 9pm CST.

I can't tonight. I'm leaving for Chicago for the weekend. I'll play you next week if you want to. I changed my PS3 name (I'm using a different one) it's xDroppinLoadsx (big Nick Manning Fan)

I'll for sure play you should but I gotta go see Pearl Jam


Here is the inspiration for my new name

[Dr. Gonzo]

Alright cool.

I know Nick Manning. Droppin' Loads used to be my text ringtone.

I'm a huge Howard fan as well.

Nice!. Maybe one day if I can figure it out I will post the call I made into the show. I got on air when they were on FM radio (the day before he announced his move to Sirius). I sounded so nervous, but I was on for a solid minute and a half then Howard hung up on me because, as he said, "alright he was getting on my nerves"

[Dr. Gonzo]

haha nice. I've just been listening since his first day on Sirius. I never lived anywhere where they broadcasted his FM show. I would watch on E! until Corpus got pissed off at his Selena comments and took his E! show off the air.

I've gotten through to Ferrall's show a couple of times. I once asked if Kobe raping the white chick made him a better ball player. He kinda ignored the question and went on a singing rant.

[Cry Havoc]

"This version of Madden is 99% probably going to suck."

Hmmmm..... I wonder who was saying that 2-3 months ago. :lol

[Dr. Gonzo]

I don't think it sucks. I'm actually enjoying it very much.

[z0sa]

I don't think it sucks. I'm actually enjoying it very much.

Not like you have a choice.

[Dr. Gonzo]

Not like you have a choice.

I have a choice. I can just get NCAA 2010. I did that last season because I wasn't crazy about Madden 09 on the PS3. I think this year's game is pretty cool. I'm not looking for exact situational football with no flaws. It's a fucking video game. I expect a shitty running back to break 8 tackles and gain 24 yards on 4th and 13.

And this is exactly why Madden sucks every year. Because the sheep of EA continue to buy a game that has no basis in reality, and they are happy to pay EA $60 every year to make incremental changes to the gameplay at best.

$55 x 20 years of Madden.... $1100 of decent (at best) football games down the drain because people don't have the sack to ask for a better game or not buy it. And it's going to continue to happen, because the people who buy Madden would rather play a pathetic version of football than go a year without a new NFL game to play in hopes that EA would actually hurt from the revenue loss and make a better game.

[Phillip]

lol cry havoc bitching when he doesnt know what the fuck hes talking about

what else is new :rolleyes

[Phillip]

Maybe you should use a team with a decent defense.

Or maybe people need to learn how to actually play Madden.

Name one game that is based on reality. Halo? Call of Duty? Grand Theft Auto?

What glitches have you found with this one that are annoying?

[IronMexican]

The only annoying glitch is the holding calls that were fixed with the last patch.

That shit annoyed me so I turned it off.

You could not be arguing more apples to oranges here.

Halo was never meant to depict a realistic game. It's a first person shooter with arcade controls. The basis for the game is that you're a super soldier sent to repel an alien invasion. Do you not see how that might lend itself to being a little less realistic than a football game based on an existing American sport? Halo has never billed itself as a "shooting simulation".

Bungie never touted the catchphrase, "If it's in the game, it's in the game." EA sells copies of Madden because it claims to be as close to the real thing as you can get without stepping onto a football field.

I mean no offense, but you are taking a very simplistic approach about how to evaluate videogames. Didn't you spend $300+ on your gaming system? $60-150 on your controllers? $500-3000 on your TV? Probably several hundred to thousands dollars on the games you play? Wouldn't you like to see that investment become more polished and better to control every generation?

If you want to go there though, I can list literally dozens of games off the top of my head that are as realistic as possible. Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter (as well as a plethora of other shooters that are now incorporating ballistic effects, real-time lighting and physics, etc.), the Gran Turismo and Forza series of racing games, hell you don't even have to leave the genre. MOST sports franchises other than those produced by EA make an actual attempt year after year to mimic the sport as closely as possible to reality. Which is why NFL 2k5 remains the best football game I've ever played, and Winning Eleven 9 is the best sports game by a wide margin, although Fifa 09 is also excellent so far, mostly because Konami has been kicking their ass so badly for the past decade in ratings and gradually gaining more fans to buy their Pro Evo series that EA had to produce a better soccer game or lose a lot of money as the "second best soccer game".

It took EA half a decade to develop actual tackling physics (as opposed to canned animations) in their game when 2k Games was doing it in 2004.

All I'm asking for is a significantly better football game than what we have. You're content with buying the same shit year after year. Do you not see the problem with this?

I don't buy the same game year after year. I haven't bought a madden game since 06. I bought NCAA last year because I didn't like Madden.

And I don't "consider videogames". I play them. That's that. I don't try to think to deeply about it. If it's fun and I like it then I like it. It ends there. I think that making video games more realistic ruins the fun. These are games where ridiculous shit can happen. That's the fun of video games. I don't want to have to learn a playbook and learn how to read defenses and bullshit like that when I'm playing a game. I like that I can run the same out pattern every other play and gain yards. I like doing a ridiculous spin move with a TE and outrunning a defensive back on my way to a 99 yard touchdown. That's the fun in games. Well for me at least.

How is running the same play over and over ad nauseum, ad infinitum, fun? How is that a challenge? Isn't that kind of similar to just doing the exact same thing over and over and over? Is it exciting when a play works for the bajillionth time and you know going into the game that it's going to work?

Sorry, I guess I just don't see the fun in such tireless repetition.

And I don't see the fun in over thinking a video game. I'm a product of old Atari and Nintendo games where the was nothing but repetition. That's how I grew up playing games and that's what I enjoyed about them. I do enough thinking and have enough challenges with school, work and just daily life. Why would I want to bring that into a video game where the point it to escape from all the bullshit? That's why I still play games like Frogger, Galaga, Mario Bros. and 1942. There is not too much thinking involved and the shit is fun.

[Phillip]

Cry Havoc is just looking more and more retarded with each post. Yeah, Madden isn't perfect (as you are expecting it to be), but it's damn good. All that business about running the same play over and over will only work against people that don't know how to play. If you play against someone that actually knows what they are doing on defense, they will find a way to shut it down and make you do something else.

[Thunder Dan]

hey Steven, I'll play you tonight if you want

[IronMexican]

Dude, it would be cool if the both of you had 360's like the rest of us to play Madden. We were in a party, me stretch, dirk, JT, and ATRAIN and played Madden till like 12 they're time. I even played Tpark in my franchise after that.

my girlfriend yells at me enough for playing 1-2 games every Tuesday and Wednesday, I can't imagine the shit I would get if I went out and bought a new system so I could play until 1AM every night

Get a new g/f man. If she can't be considerate enough to allow you to enjoy yourself, you're better off single.

it's not that, she lets me do my own thing all the time, and even watches me play. I got really good at the NCAA series on PS2 (I was like a level 30) and I used to play and she should talk shit on the headset so the other person thought a girl was that good at it....that was funny, but I'm 25 now, heading on 26 and she is kinda looking for a ring and all that so I'm sure she wouldn't be too happy with me buying a Xbox just to play Madden with you guys

That's all well and good, but you still have to have fun. She shouldn't yell at you for doing something you enjoy as long as it's not impeding upon your responsibilities. If anything, she should just have a an discussion with you about it and work out a compromise.

what in the fuck? its pretty much common knowledge that playing video games all the time annoys the shit out of your woman. THEY want all your attention, and don't feed me the bullshit about your woman being any different. They're hard wired that way, you can't change it.

And there is a noticeable difference between a significant other being less than thrilled about something and being yelled at for having a hobby. There's no way I would ever be with a woman who wouldn't let me have my own personal space once in a while. That's a pretty misanthropic, cynical, co-dependent view of women you have there.

I said 'all the time' because he said he'd get into shit if he increased his habit to playing every night til 1am in the morning or something like that.

yeah it's not a big deal now. She busts my balls about it every now and again when I'm playing, but I'm saying that I'll catch alot more shit for it if I go out and drop $300 on a whole new system so I can play you guys all night in Madden. That's basically what I was saying.

Somebody never played Tecmo Bowl.

[Cry Havoc]

Somebody never played Tecmo Bowl.

Tecmo Super Bowl remains one of my favorite sports games of all-time.

It was an arcade football game. Not a simulation. It was fine when I threw for 400 yards in one game to one receiver because that's what I was expecting.

That's like calling out NFL Blitz for being unrealistic. It doesn't try to be a simulation like Madden does.
