Phil Frazier is Leaving EA Sports Tiburon

[mirrored32]

I wish Phil well in his next adventure, he was remembered and will be missed! Madden looks great and seems to be on track so I think Madden will be ok.

Ian has moved on as well, and man i admired his will to keep the faith. Hope all is well with him as well.

A change of people I was getting to know the names of in the Madden teams.

This has to do with FIFA. EA wants Madden back at FIFA ( and NHL's ) level. FIFA is is being innovative and being praised for improvements each year (as is NHL). Sometimes fresh blood is needed. They brought in Cam to basically to be that Fresh Blood and he wants his people around him. Simple.

So long as Looman doesn't leave. Stay where you are, Josh Looman. We need our franchise guru! Phil will be missed by me. I liked (and still like) where Madden is headed. I'm sure whoever steps up can carry that vision. If not, just give it to the NCAA guys.

Well Mike Young is still there and he's the f'ing man.

What are you talking about sir?

Ian I think the community had all kinds of venom and Love for the Madden team. Simply being a madden creator has to be difficult due to the impossible task of putting out a perfect game. A bit like Atlas I suppose, holding the world.

I appreciated your diligence under fire. Though personally i liked the 'weapons' of madden. So i like that direction.

as a fan of Madden I feel it had to be difficult to choose what features were in madden let alone how you felt excited about that game.

well I hope all goes well for Phil and yourself!
