He wasn't the only one to say it. But anyway.....one guy can't make or break a series. It is a team effort.

No to put is simply. I could go into more detail but I don't think this thread will be around that long.

Re: Was Ian Cummings the reason behind Maddens Downfall ?

I didn't always agree with the creative choices the Madden team made, but I truly believe that they all, Ian especially, did the best job they could with what they had to work with. The series did show an uptick in quality under his watch.

With that being said, what exactly is this thread supposed to serve? Ian has stepped away from the series. He should be left in peace and we as a community should be turning our focus forward. This game still has a ways to go to completely replicate NFL football and a thread bashing Ian isn't going to correct any of the problems going into Madden 13 or bring about any sort of revelation that hasn't been discussed here already.

In a word, no.

Plus, a NSFW signal on the link?
