NCAA Trade In Towards Madden

Definitely changed my mind on that front. This game will be getting traded in with the quickness. I'd rather play Madden than wait indefinitely for a patch that may not even address all of the gameplay issues that the game has. To my knowledge, I don't think EA has ever had a deal like that, where if you trade in the NCAA game of the same year (that only came out a month and some change before Madden) you get $40 off. I wonder why....? Hmmm.

Its not EA, its Gamestop.

fter playing last night and crushing the cpu 84-0 on the highest difficulty. And playing few online games where people take fast qbs go back 30 yds to a wide open reciever. I decided to do the deal lol. You guys convinced me.. I went back and redid my transaction....

I am now in wait and see for NCAA 2010 next year as it is not an automatic purchase. Even if the claim is it is fixed, I am now on the cautious side and will wait and see what OS members think.

To some.........$60 is not a big deal. To me..........I could use it towards a better game!

Nope, I will continue to play 2008 as it is a better game than 2009.

What are you going to trade for when Madden don't met your high hopes? Its the same thing every year. Someone tells you how great the game is and you rush out and buy it to only find that it is not what you thought. The D is to hard for you to move the ball against or now the D is imposibale to stop. So Gamestop, who I think knows they may have a hard time moving some Madden's out the door, is going to give you a $40 credit on a game that is a few weeks old. I think we need to take the games for what they are, a game. Before I even thought about trading NCAA for Madden I would wait and see what problems it has. Did we forget about the lack of a franchise last year until the end of the season. That made me not buy it at all. I know what I got with NCAA. The D is not that bad to me. I have gone form getting 1 sack a game to 4 or 5 sacks a game due to making my self better. If I can do it then I know some of the guys on here can. I am the guy who has to make my sliders better and the CPU bad. EA will never make most of you happy. But why should they, because they got you to buy NCAA and now Madden. That is 2 game sales they can add to the total. Like I said Gamestop is giving you what seems to be a great deal but they are in this to make money and don't care one second about the consumer. Stop and think about what your doing and if you still feel like you are getting the upper hand then take the deal, but I for one will not trade a game I paid $60 for to loose $20 in a few weeks for a game that might not be any better.

Wow, you can get $40 on trade in value? That's cool. I might do that since I only paid $15 for mine.
