So madden 2004 is finally here.BIG F$#@&*! DEAL!!I have some serious issues with this game that I will most likely get mutilated for expressing,but here goes:

1.No logos in create-a-team mode?WTF!!??
2.17 Million create-a-stadium combinations?!Yeah Right!!!
3.Computer super comebacks!!
4.Where's the head tracking on passes from NCAA 2004?!
5.Upgrades that don't even show up?!!How hard to add a screen somewhere in the stands??!!
6.I relocate and have to design these same 3rd hand uniforms they refuse to fix?!!I wanna keep the originals dammitt!!
7.You pick afro as a hairstyle and ocassionally you have half-dreadlocks floating on your neck!!?
8.Tatoos that don't resemble anything on a football field?!and some that look like the ones in bubblegum wrappers!!??
9.In ncaa you see all sort of flash bulbs during bowl games and the crowd is SOOOO Loud.The super bowl
has NONE of that!!!.
10.You can't pass worth beans,but a running back with a high BTK rating can dominate by himself?!!EVEN out the damn A.I.!!

Well......now that I've gotten that of my chest,I must say the positive things are good,like the graphics on replays and the snow effects,but the good just doesn't help balance the dissapointment of what this game could have been...
No doubt madden is the best NFL game this year,but the best FOOTBALL game is NCAA 2004!!No wonder they had the $30 trade-in-promotion...Cause they knew if you had to choose....
Now..All you fan-boys feel free to rip me apart lol..it's just an opinion GET OVER IT!!

1. You worry a lot about non-field issues.

2. You need to play more. You haven't gotten the hang of it yet. If I can pass (and I can now), anyone can.

3. It's a significant improvement, by far the best Madden ever.

Yea, it took me a while but my passing has improved a heck of a lot. In pre-season my QB ratings were somewhere in the 20s. Now I can have good passing games and complete over 50% of my passes which is great for me. The running game all depends on your slider set-up also.

I will have your game since mine hasnt been delivered by future shop yet

I agree 100%! NCAA is much better then Maddden. To me, Madden seesm static. Almost as if everything has been predetermined. Also, the teams play the same... Basically, the only difference I've seen between the different teams are their uniforms. The QBs/RBs/WRs/TEs all seem to have the same ability, speed, etc. Playing the Chiefs is no different then play the Bucaneers.

NCAA is dynamic! Every game plays differently and every team has a different approach. DB AI is much better and more realistic!

I might be focusing too much on off field-stuff,but only because that's what they hyped up so much this year...Owner mode this,owner mode that,thank god the playmaker feature is worth something.I think I will deliver a list of madden coalition demands for next year directly to EA lol!
