Re: Why doesn\'t ESPN concentrate on big things

Personally, I'd rather be burning some stadium music in my crib than setting vendor prices in my owner franchise mode. To each his own, I guess.

Then again, I know what ESPN's gameplay will be like (better than the year before's, which was better than the year before that.) It's really kind've ludicrous to say that Madden is pushing the gameplay envelope more than VC, and not the other way around. If we were waiting on EA to get rid of the 30 yard drop back for QBs, "Mario Running," etc., we'd still be waiting.

I'm sure I'll buy and enjoy Madden, but c'mon man. Ya gotta give credit where credit is due (VC).

Peace.

Yeah just like last year when they only added gimmicks like First Person Football and the Crib and didn't address the gameplay at all...




The crib and first person aren't gimmicks and they fixed the sack issue, the pressure from the dline, the fact that recievers dropped the ball so much, there was no momentum period, fixed the db coverage and alot more.




I know, I was being sarcastic....





Don't worry, it takes jmood a little bit later than the rest of us to compute

Because when people read and use their brains, they are supposed to notice if someone is being sarcastic.

Shush up or go to Hell.

So now, when you read you should be able to sense the tone of a person through written words? If you hadn't noriced, one of the main problems of message boards is not being able to tell if a person is being serious or if they are joking. And all this was, was a misunderstanding. I can tell if it's something obvious but like I said before, what he said isn't anything different then what most madden fanboys say. Calm down.

Everybody else noticed he was being sarcastic. I know we have some people on here that are questionable but this time wasn't the case.

And how you gonna tell me to calm down when you told me to "Shut up"
