thats a puzzling statement because sega tried to come out first last yr and ea just pushed there release up so i guess you dont remember that? so why try the same stupid thing again this yr last yr they tried to go head 2 head and got crushed so are you telling sega to get crushed again its best to let the hype wear down a bit because maddens on mtv espn and everywhere else how many places do you see sega banners???????? so why would they be dumb enough to try to go heads with ea thats plain stupid and we saw the result of that last yr. sega is doing the right thing by waiting just be patient
