EA Sports Says: It's Madden Season!

Seems kinda juvenile (then again most of Harts stuff is). Maybe I'm just old but i stopped watching before the 1:00 mark. Hopefully the actual game will hold my attention for longer lol.

The production cost of that alone could've probably gone a long way with making the gameplay better had they invested it into the game IMO.

Pretty dang funny though.

Why? I never understand comments like these. For a company like EA - I imagine there is enough money for marketing and for game production. Why assume one takes from the other? If the game sucks - it will be on it's own merit - not because the $1M they spent on this commercial meant they couldn't spend on staffing to make a better game.

I am not trying to pick a fight or be mean spirited - but I truly don't understand how advertising relates to a good product. I have seen plenty of great games with great advertising. And we don't even know if the gameplay is lacking. Heck - early reports all indicate a MUCH improved experience. And even if the gameplay sucks - who's to say throwing more money at the game would fix the problem. If the developers suck or the company has the wrong vision, an addition load of cash only gets them going in the wrong direction much faster.

Lets just enjoy the commercial [or not if you hate Kevin Hart]. It's Madden time either way!

Are those people I should know? I guess I am too old for the Madden target audience.

That was pretty awesome. Well done EA Marketing.

They went over the top to try to get people hype for Madden again, since the Madden hype has been slowly dying over the years. I applaud them for their effort, but it was an obvious desperation move.
I like the part when him & his girl were arguing and his his girl left him. Who was the chick singing? Madonna?

Now we know where the game's budget went.
