Many Ebayers also described Madden as only used once and just not for me this is only after a few days play ? It Normally sells for $56- $60 basically free tax for the first month or so . Im so glad I only paid $50.99 for it at Sports authority online so I am only out a few bucks but Ill never get a weeks worth of gaming back . So you may ask what does this mean ? It means the market is flooded with this game New and Used and that should tell the makers of this game what many think of their latest version . We as gamers want something New and fresh not the same rehash with a new coat of paint and promises each year with lackluster gameplay. My advice to EA is to take a year off from football like EA NHL did and rebuild this game from the ground up . It did wonders for the now 3 year Award winning Ea NHL series and IMO intil Ea Madden does this the series will never improve or truly move foward to the next Generation. Thanks for listening

You can see them getting more and more desperate every day.

I personally choose to take him at face value, and not judge his comments or call him "troll", "troof chaser", "fanboy", etc. Doesnt that really get old? The only way this thread turns into a war, is if poeple start taking swings at each other. Look at Ebay, if the game is selling at lower prices with the comments mentioned, the op is making a honest statement, if not-ignore him, or report it to a mod who knows how to handle it(gripe thread).

You'd have a point. Except this little excerpt blows up the ruse.

The diatribe wasn't needed if he was just reporting facts as you say.

Agreed.

Trolling, fanboy, or anything else aside.....it's flawed logic.

He's assuming that just because the game is selling for cheap on eBay that it's the measuring stick for the games success or popularity.

He's leaving out the little tidbits like the people that received Madden 10 with the Sports Illustrated deal and didn't even want the game. They sell it for $40 and get the subscription for $5.

I'm sure there's numerous other scenarios like that one out there, but the OP's logic is way off.
