360 Playbooks = Current Gen!

If it's true and they all work, score some brownie points for EA. As a customer this would be a very positive thing to me.

I hope it's true

Jon Robinson EA was in our office last week and during the demo, they specifically said that the Puntrooskie and formations like the Pistol did not make the 360 version. This is exactly what they told me when I went to Tiburon and saw the game. We bxxxxxd and bxxxxxd about how stupid this was, and now it looks like someone is listening. According to Jeff Luhr, the game's producer, they are now adding these plays and formations in the next-gen version (even though they still weren't in the version we saw last week, and when asked, we were told they were not going to be in the game. Confused? So are we).

I hope that Jon Robinson is correct but it's hard for me to believe anything that comes out of his mouth. The guy is consistently wrong. First, he was told that the formations would not make the game. They weren't in the build of the game as of last week. And now EA is going to hurry up and squeeze the formations into the next-gen version. I'm just not sold on it. I hope it does happen so that people will be a little more satisfied. Keep your fingers crossed.

Too bad they haven't heard all of the complaining about not all the teams having their accurate stadiums rendered on the game. But hey, at least EA will have almost 1/2 (some accounts is 1/3) of the stadiums in the game.

Yay! More cheese to deal with online. Call it a hunch, but these trick plays are going to be over effective, especially the Puntrooskie.

"Looks like all of the complaints finally paid off as it forced EA to upgrade the game and add these formations and more in next-gen (as it should)."

What do you suppose this "more" is that Robinson speaks of? Spring game perhaps?

whatever it is it will be better than nothing

I just have to wonder if they are adding plays & formations this late if it won't delay the release of the 360 version.

I hope not.
