EA's Madden is in Trouble

[T Park]

Well, you say "holy crap"...but do you truly mean it?

When it comes to being exasperated over reading into my posts, then yeah I mean it

2K >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> EA

EA sucks. EA blows donkey-balls. That agreement ruined football games. Madden has sucked for so many years, its atrocious.

Ill never buy another Madden le in part due to this exclusive agreement. You, the consumer, have no choice as to what game seems better to you. You are stuck with EA. Madden, the game where you cannot run the ball because people can tackle you from 10 yards away just by diving in the general direction.

Ever wonder why they added the QB Vision crap? They tried to make passing more difficult because they knew you cant run. Thats why all the tournaments end in 6-3 games.

Yawn. EA.

I'm going to get both. 2k will not have any type of franchise mode but I'm expecting a new impressive innovative spin on the game. I don't have a problem with Maddens game play and the franchise mode is really all I'm interested in. Both should be good. If anything sales should be solid for different reasons. Should be two very different games.

The best football game I've ever played is still NFL 2k5.

I need to try the new college football games though... heard they're great.

Madden is horrible. Madden sucks. Madden is the biggest cookie-cutter piece of game in existence. They're like Chevy's (or all american cars atm). Every year they say how much better they are, but they still suck compared to Japanese cars, let alone the European standard. Nothing changes. Madden offers the most repe ive gameplay in video games outside of Tomb Raider. (Kidding, TR is far more diverse than Madden, but making fun of Lara Croft's jigglies never gets old).

2k Sports has been better at every single sport for a long while except hockey, where it's got a slight advantage. Their basketball games aren't even worth talking about.

I agree. 2k Football > EA's flashlight football. For the past few years or so, I've wondered if the people at EA actually watch football.

I noticed O.J. Simpson is signed on. That's good to see.



I can see him running downfield now with a knife in his stiff-arming hand. This game will have enormous potential I think.

2k5 football was one of my favorite games ever. I refused to play Madden because I swore by it. Then, that fatefull day came when EA ed the 2K franchise, and I was forced to play madden. Good game, but the 2K franchise was the . Thats were madden got the hit stick from, or I should say stole it from

[jcrod]

I always liked 2k in both football and Basketball they blew EA away. It sucks we're stuck with EA on football.

Screw Electronic Arts.

Every game that monster touches is programmed assembly-line style. Every good game developer they buy out (Westwood, ect) they destroy.
