Yeah guys crack me up,..you come the board and blast the game everyday and yet every year you keep buying the game....LOL!! You remind me of those middle aged house wives that always complain about their husbands, and yet they continue to be married to them.

If you don't like the game, go create a better product. There's nothing in the Constitution entitling you to an NFL simulation game.

If you think $60 is too much to pay for this product, then stop paying for it. Based on sales, the market says that this product is worth $60; otherwise, people wouldn't buy it.

If you think it's not fair to have to invest $60 before finding flaws and are prohibited from returning it, rent it first.

A lot of you have to eventually face cold reality: the world is not here to solve your problems for you.

^^^^^^but in those cases, the wives can have affairs with younger guys. Madden's the only game in town, unless we settle for having an affair with "granny"-----2k5.

Re: Madden NFL 10 Patch #2 Details Coming Next Week

So let's say you go out and buy a nice new HDTV. You get it home and only half of the screen has a picture and the other half is black. I guess you would be fine with that? You wouldn't mind waiting a couple months for a fix? Or would you expect the product to work correctly , and if not you would return it for a full refund?

I'm glad we are getting patches to fix the game. My beef is, the game should not need the patches in the first place.

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ Bottom line.

Your HDTV analogy has no correlation at all. Try again.

"Granny" is still pretty darn hot though.

Jokes aside, if it's really so bad, then I don't see why people STILL go out and buy it each year. I'm sure they'll blame hype, or Ian, or Ian's hype, etc.

It's substantially improved IMO and headed in the right direction. I can see how that might not be enough for a lot of people given the cumulative efforts on "next-gen", but by that same token, I don't know why those people ran out and bought it knowing how much this series needed.

I'm sure to be in the minority with this, but I'm actually hopeful for the direction of this series. Since Ian took over at the end of 09's cycle, I think the right focus has been there. I think it's merely a case of expectations not being fully rooted in realty, based on the history.

You do realize that the exclusive NFL license prohibits anybody from creating a NFL based or themed game.

"Go make your own game then",

"It sells at $60, so it must be worth it".

I mean really? Thats how you go about defending it from people who question the quality of this game. I guess you wanna ignore the "truth" that the majority of those copies are sold to parents buying them for children. Children who could care less about simulation football and only want fancy graphics combined with a game they can easily win.

Im not sure how you can go from proving your point about video games by using the Constitution and then talking about other peoples reality.

EA has everything at its fingertips to build a world class game, but they dont. You realize the library of NFL footage they have to draw from must be mind numbing?

Go find some non-video game playing people. Show the 2k5 or APF and compare just the animations and nothing else to M10. Then ask them which game was build using one of the largest state of the art motion capture studios in the world.

Well obviously those people aren't buying the game every year or else Madden sales over the last couple years would be up not down as with EA's stock which was trading at well above $50.00 4 years ago which is now trading at around $20.00........

So the details are going to be released, but is there any set date for the actual release of the patch? I know updating titles is a much quicker process for the PS3 than it is for 360. I'll be fairly happy if they were able to fix the stats for franchises. If this patch doesn't satisfy me it may be another decade until I purchase a Madden game again.

Well, Ian has already commented to the fact that he won't disclose the patch details until he sees them in the game for himself, meaning that he won't say anything until the patch has been approved by both MS and Sony. Therefore, I would expect the patch to drop either later this week or next week.

And franchise stats were addressed in the 2nd patch.

Well they aren't all though. The sales are down.

I haven't bought it in at least 4-5 years. Unless this version is patched up to near what was promised I won't be buying it next year (probably not for another 4-5 again). The game hasn't moved on since I used to buy it and many of the same problems are still there.

There was way too much hype for the product this year, especislly given some key things are just plain broke right out of the box.

franchise stats as in assisted tackles being counted as tackles? If not, then it's not even worthwhile.

Re: Madden NFL 10 Patch #2 Details Coming Next Week

Let's not kid ourselves, what game hasn't...

Fallout 3
Oblivion
Mass Effect
Halo 3 ODST
Far Cry 2
Orange Box
Assassin's Creed
GTA IV
would you like me to go on? Sure there are things that can be fixed, but not nearly as glaring as what is in Madden

How about naming a game that is on a one year development cycle like Madden.

There was a thread that Josh Looman started talking about all the franchise stat tweaks that were taking place.

Re: Madden NFL 10 Patch #2 Details Coming Next Week

People, most software needs patched. It's virtually impossible to release a bug free game or program. From Sports games to computer Operating Systems, patches are usually needed. How you can knock the Madden team for showing support for their game is far beyond me.
