I know the points been made before but dude...ever read a newspaper? Watch the news on TV? You realize that we're in a ****ty economy right now, right? And that sales for EVERYTHING is down?

Sorry but this year especially, you can't take that small difference in sales from last year to this year and use it as ammo for a "Madden 10 sucks" argument. It just makes you look like a dumb kid that doesn't keep up with current events.

I completely agree with you. I think that Madden's future is very bright and hopefully Madden 11 will be a year to remember. IMO, Madden made huge strides this year (despite some of its issues), and if it can do it again, it can be special.

The only question I have for you is, did you get an infraction for this thread? Whenever I bad mouth EA, by responding to existing threads, I get an infraction for Trolling. Even though this is a good forum, I have to say IMO, it's very unique in that you really have to be extra careful on what you post. Any other forums I post in, allow you to speak your mind as long as your not insulting another member in the forum.

Re: Where's my Money? I'll take a check

In anger, I have said that I would never buy Madden again... Logically and realistically, I probably will, but ONLY after it has been out for at least a month. I will read every review, possibly wait for the first patch, and check these boards religiously to see what Madden 2011 is like... But I will never be a midnight buyer again. I said that three years ago and I've held to it. I have waited at least a few days but then I just had to go buy it... I've bought this game since I was 10 and used my paper route money.

I have played one full game... and that was enough for me. I have not even downloaded the patch yet because NCAA is all I play. When patch #2 comes out I'll update the game and try again, but not until the sim stats are fixed.

U think im wrong then call me on it, but I can guarantee you that in AUG/SEPT this forum willl again be filled with angry members braking on how bad MADDEN 2010 is.
Thats because most of the people who are actually enjoying the game try to steer clear of the forums due to all the negativity.

And you want some compensation because you guaranteed that people would be "braking on how bad Madden 10 is"? Well, thats really going out on a limb considering that no matter what improvements this game made or how good it is, there will always be something that people are not happy with, they'll post it on the forums, and people will agree. Hell, its made safer by the simple idea that people were complaining about how bad the game was, and it hadn't even released yet.

Guaranteeing that people will be upset with Madden, or any sports video game in general, is as safe as guaranteeing that tomorrow will be light, followed by a period of dark, and that all lakes will be wet.

Re: Where's my Money? I'll take a check

lol..i dont get it.. so your saying you won the bet based off your "own opinion" There is no fact that the game is good or bad as everyone has their own opinion.

If you want to prove your right..i suggest you make a poll asking who likes madden10 and who dont like madden10..that would prove if you were right or wrong much better then using your own opinion.

I DARE you to make this poll..i dare you!! lol

I bet my last dollar the poll would greatly favor those that like the game..

Instead of spewing your jibberish.. MAKE THE F'n POLL!!!!

PS> I bet the OP wont make the poll because he knows he will be proven wrong

Here is what I said. Now remember I was very angry back then so I went off.



Again I was pretty upset not being able to have a solid next gen game that I went loco

The thing is Ian called me on this bet, and I tried countless times to make that bet, and no luck he pretty much ignored me. Oh well, but I would have been receiving a check for sure if he did follow through

Here is his response.



Funny to is how all his cheerleaders were riding his jock, and saying "Yea my money is on you Ian"

Anyway I think it is safe to say that some are happy with this title , but way more gamers are not. The sales of this game also show that it is not a successful title.

I would have won this bet, and here is the link to validate the date it was posted.

I'm sure I will get some wise a55 coming off on me. Ian still does have some cheerleaders in here, and will do their best to defend him.

I really do not care.
