Im not sure what in EA's past record makes you think that, but more power to ya.

There is nothing in the past that makes me think otherwise, but I can't change the past, either.

Some people are hoping with a brand new team aboard we will start to see changes for the positive.

i wouldnt mind if Ian could respond to how he "feels" about this.
though with his boss sponsering this, i dont know how much he can say.

i wouldnt mind a PM or even an acknowledgement that Ian and/or other producers have read this article would be satisfying.

maybe even admit this isnt how madden was supposed to be.....just some kind of reassurance that madden 10 will NOT become what this event showcases madden 09 as.

Just seeing the words "Madden Challenge" makes me glad I am an OSer. All you need to do is look at the pics of the Frat-Boy 'Madden Pros' and then you realize why you actually know at least a LITTLE bit about football.

Maybe someone should ask EA if these are the "Casual Gamers" they are looking for. The casual, trash-talking, exploit using "Dynasties" of the world.

This thread did make me realize that if Madden doesn't deliver this year I will be among the APF2K8 peeps that find a way to have fun with that game.

Im with you on that one.Between playing Madden 09 on PS2 and APF2k8 im having a good time.My madden stress level has dropped dramatically.Instead of head scratchin,im doing fist pumps.Im not putting to much stock into Madden X on the 360.I hope they bring it out for the PS2 again.

These tournament players are the exact opposite of casual gamers. 10 hour "labbin" sessions? Nothing casual about that. They're definitely not the pick-up-and-play type that EA has shown concern for.

My guess is that these tournament players would be just as good if the game were more realisitic.

Man I never thought about the time they put in exploiting all game flaws. Hell with the money they earn by winning tournaments, they have found there calling.

I agree with there dedication they will find flaws to exploit even the most sim football game.

BezO do you think these cats even watch football?
