Phil Frazier Says No 3rd Patch or DLC For Madden 09

[bubba4]

Your friend invites you to a party. He says that he is THINKING about having steak and shrimp for the grill, along with a keg and no host open bar! But he delivers cheese and crackers with Coors Lite.

Now he never promised all those goodies he listed.

Should you be upset?

It's a "moot" point also.

the funny thing is how we're getting shafted on the DLC when the stuff in the DLC should have been included in the game in the first place, not a patch or DLC! CPU sliders and controller configurations???

dude this is next gen, madden has had sliders and alternate control schemes for years!

DLC should be stuff like uniforms and stadiums, not basic things EVERY OTHER SPORTS GAME has like sliders and controller configs.

it's rich how this DLC has been labeled for "hardcore fans" or whatever. it's basic to the game! next year they'll put out a game without a football and offer it in DLC!

now they can list the contents of the DLC as "New Features" of Madden 2010

Of course you should, but you have alternatives. You can find a good bar and grill down the road and down a few beers there.
With Madden, if the game is average or below average, there are no football alternatives.

I am disappointed, but thankfully not surprised.

At least the last letdown of this years Madden game has dropped.

I guess I'll have to try the dummy profile thing.

Tough/sad news for us Madden fans. But Im sick of even talking about 09. This just confirms that I can trade it in earlier than I expeted. I was holding onto it just for the sake of seeing if the CPU sliders could help fix the cpu run game.

**** PHIL or IAN ********* PLEASE READ THIS *****

Can you's please make sure the game gets tested ahead of time next season. Like what was the point of community day if what they reported is either non-exsistant or doesnt get fixed? And have them play the CPU cause thats where 100% of the problems are. Dumb AI

TEST THE GAME , TEST THE GAME, TEST THE GAME.

How can some of this stuff make it through testers? Assuming you's do use testers.

Translation, we have your money and now we'll work to get it again next year. I know this is disappointing to all and I know this next sentence may sting a little but.......you're all partially to blame. EA continues to let you down, and you continue to have hope. The same people who are frustrated and say this sucks and this is the last straw and they won't buy Madden next year, you'll be in line at midnight for Madden 2010. Online cheesers are the target market now and that's all you have, that's all the NFL has given you. This was predicted years ago when EA purchased the right for no competition. It will continue on the downward spiral until hell freezes over, the NFL exclusive contract is over, and a company stands up to take the giant down.
