Naw, I think he's giving a compliment on NCAA to be honest. He went in with low expectations and the game exceeded it. Nothing more, nothing less.

Nah not at all I'm just being honest. Pre demo NCAA was straight garbage to me. I thought people were crazy for even being excited about it. The demo still didn't improve it that much, but being a bonehead and forgetting that pre-ordered plus season ticket allowed me to discover the game is decent, which it usually is, I still honestly don't feel it's that good, but at least things make sense this year for the most part. I only play the cpu by the way, so I avoid alot of the crap other people see. Sad part is even playing the cpu, I still see a ton of crap, lol.

And stop giving a damn about how others perceive the game. What does Broncos86 approach of seeing the glass half full have to do with you? Anything?

What he eats doesn't make you [crap]....

Sliders, Heisman setting, and fixing the QB and O-line ratings for option teams will make the game better. I'm trying that out right now with GT Tech and seeing how they run against my Minnesota Gohpers.

I thought Ian was that guy, but...well, whatever. Now we'll have to see if this team/thought process can get it together. But to be fair, Pared, I do agree. History does have a funny way of repeating itself with the Madden brand.

Ahh... and here is the reason why I didn't include NBA Live. NBA 2k actually REALIZED what NBA Live was doing.. countered by IMPROVING THE GAME... and EA jumped ship too early.

Had EA stayed fast with their decision despite dwindling market share they would have had something.

MVP Baseball anyone?

I asked him a question because his opinion has stayed true. Your comment is a bit ironic given it's nature I quoted him and you responded.

Also has nothing to do with the developers comment preceding it. Let's try and keep your thoughts on track.

I really don't enjoy the direction the team chooses on so many things, but the game isn't horrible, which it usually isn't. Is it realistic? Sometimes. I think Madden will be better, which I thought it was last year, but that really isn't saying much imo. I honestly only have NCAA because I 4got to cancel the pre-order from Amazon which was 45, which I think the game is worth. I am having some fun though, but we'll see if I'm still playing it in March/April. Madden I'm getting with a gift card so I can't complain about that, lol.

Heh, sounds like when the consensus is that a company is going to report a big loss and instead report a little one instead.

Now as someone with "no position" (I don't own the game), that still makes me take a wait-for-more-information approach.

For you, though, it's good that it worked out like it did. Lower expectations exceeded is still a "beat" both in this case and on Wall Street, even if it "beat" with still not-stellar numbers.

So take it and run with it and ring the register for your profits (enjoy the game)

For me, though, I'm still in wait-and-see mode.

Ha! If there's any irony here, it's the notion that OS isn't a place to bitch & moan (your sig) -- yet each time you post in the Madden forum...
