Our "Madden" review is coming soon - like it was going to make the difference of whether you'd buy it or not, anyway...

I love you Shawn. You answered my question that I posted awhile ago. You used a Neo refrence pertaining to the ratings boost and cheats that the cpu often uses to make the gameplay challenging. You said it is now gone and feels more legitiment. Thats all I needed to hear....err..read.

Also, that NY Times link you posted, you need to register to view it. One of our friendly posters has already cut n pasted the article in the Non-Sports forum if anyone is interested at reading it. Its a good read.

Not a big deal, though kind of odd, when I view that article I can't scroll down with the mouse and I can't scroll up or down with the up and down arrow. (keyboard) The only site that does that.

(the forums are fine though)

Yeah.

I had to do a lot of chewing-gum-and-bailing-wire hacking to get that all working in our framework. I don't understand myself why the scroll doesn't work.

It's usually up "publicly" for 24 hours. It was when I posted the blog...
Oh, well - on the bright side, registering is free - and well worth it for the content.

Im not sure I buy the view of the article. He saw the code in Madden 2005 but not in Madden 2006? Howd that happen? It still is the same engine and thus code. Cone passing may work as a sort of distraction from it though.
