Next year, I'm just going to sit back and read the threads on this and other boards to see what the consensus is before I even THINK about purchasing it. I'd rather spend $60 on a great game (sports or otherwise) than some crappy beta release of Madden. Please people, don't give in to the Marketing hype next summer.

This is solid advice...

The reason I'm still on PS2 is simple...

I always wait until I read at least a few weeks worth of impressions on any sports title before purchase and I've yet to see a compelling reason to go next gen...

The Show seems good on PS3 and NBA2k got raves on 360, but most of upgrade delt with graphics, not gameplay, so I just stuck with PS2...

Just don't buy the product until the review / glitch lists are out and change will come as a result of simple economics...

Class action suits are always fun too...

Don't know if there's any lawyers on the forum, but heck, it works for a number of consumer based issues...

Lol this is the funniest thread ever, there are some sad sad people out there if they take video games this seriously.

I do not agree with this statement

I think it is very sad sad that a man was never taught by his Mama that if he didn't have anything nice to say, then don't say anything at all.

The total sales year over year are down this year at least after the first week. Do not think only people who post at Operation Sports forums are unhappy with the game. EA is developing a reputation for mediocrity and the sales will reflect this.

I think if we want to send EA a message we should boycott them. The Colonist boycotted British goods and it got so bad that merchants in Britian had to go to Parliment and ask them to repeal it (I believe it was the Sugar Act). If we can get a good number of people to boycott EA Sports games (doubtful though) maybe we can send a message to them that we are not satisfied and they will HAVE to improve their games. I have already started boycotting EA, after the horrible game I got with NASCAR 08. I realized I would not waste my money on the stuff EA sent out.
