The "I have a problem with Madden 08" Thread
I can't believe EA added a user defined camera but you can't rotate it to achieve a sideline cam like in NCAA. I havn't bought Madden since 04 just because some idiot decided to take out the sideline camera. I want to play the game the way i see it on TV every sunday. I cant understand why the gamers are into this behind the quarterback view because that is not how we see it on TV, its so unrealistic to me.Tags: None -

Almost every play( 90%) in the NFL and NCAA football is the sideline view nuff said.Comment

Re: WhY isn't there a Sideline View Camera?
Well-this might not be the proper thread for this comment-but-NFL 2K5 has that view and tv style replays. The Xbox version of the halftime show is still up to today's standards of "next gen".ByurrulzIdon'tfollowComment

Re: WhY isn't there a Sideline View Camera?
Well, I realize I am playing a video game and thus use the veiw that is the most logical for me to play with. I understand that a video game isn't real life and trying to pretend it is real life sitll won't make it real life.I can't believe EA added a user defined camera but you can't rotate it to achieve a sideline cam like in NCAA. I havn't bought Madden since 04 just because some idiot decided to take out the sideline camera. I want to play the game the way i see it on TV every sunday.

To each their own. If you wish to think playing a video game somehow brings you into the real nfl then that's fine.Comment

The "I have a problem with Madden 08" Thread
Okay guys,
Some of you have recently voiced some concerns over the abundance of threads being locked in this forum. Rather than allow each user their own thread to voice their displeasure with certain aspects of Madden 08, I'm going to ask that you all keep your complaints, gripes, and what not in this thread.
As long as you all remain civil about what it is you're unhappy about, this thread will remain open. If things start to get out of hand, however, we'll have no choice but to lock it up.
Thanks, and gripe away.Comment

Re: The "I have a problem with Madden 08" Thread
I was wondering when the mass lockings would stop. I have not posted because of this reason. Some of us are unhappy with how EA has been handling Madden and we tend to voice our dislike for it in here.
Back on topic. Like some of you have said. The BBB might have no POWER to change EA but they can bring things more in the public eye. But like someone mentioned. I think if enough disgruntled gamers went to the NFL and voice serious disapproval of them given the License to EA only to have them not use it up to standards of todays market. I think the cry can EASILY be seen amoung ALL the message boards, not just this one of all the people complaining of how they have so many issues with Madden this year. It is not just people wanting to complain, this time it is a honest call from gamers that they are NOT happy with the direction EA is going with madden.Comment

Re: The "I have a problem with Madden 08" Thread
when you get past the major things, all the franchise and superstar issues, turnovers,etc you gotta sit back and look at the game as a whole to see how truly bad it is. i mean they have no stat overlays or anything but a sprint halftime replay thing with no announcing to it, they dont bother to show you a teams record or anything but they will show you the computers ring builder status in franchise. i would really like to know what portion of this game plays as advertised? what even makes this game playable? i may be the only person with this issue but my game disconnects whenever I playaction pass online. ive never had internet connection problems on any other game ever. thi game is just pure trash and it kills me that i was basically convinced to buy this game from numerous glowing reviews and I cant beleive how all of these issues didnt come up in any reviews or previews. It took me only a few hours to realize this is the worst football game ever released.
I dont want to sit here in these forums and come off like im blasting developers and the people in all the videos but I would be appalled if they arent embarrased to have this game attached to their name. who is responsible for this? even george Bush takes responsibility 25% of the time.Comment

Re: The "I have a problem with Madden 08" Thread
Our voices have been heard from consumer to EA.
They are currently working on a patch. I feel it's too early to contact the BBB and the NFL and all my lawyers before the patch comes out. If the patch fixes franchise issues, that is what most of the people care about, there is no need to contact the BBB and the NFL. If the patch doesn't address the issues of franchise mode, then I will contact the NFL and not purchase Madden except for Madden PC.
I don't think it's that much to ask to wait and see what the patch fixes.
EA makes Madden for all kinds of ages, not a narrow defined market.Comment

Re: The "I have a problem with Madden 08" Thread
Let me help you out here. Trust me when I say that this is far from being the "worst football game ever released". You're exaggerating just a bit there, and if you step back and take a deep breath, I think even you would admit that.when you get past the major things, all the franchise and superstar issues, turnovers,etc you gotta sit back and look at the game as a whole to see how truly bad it is. i mean they have no stat overlays or anything but a sprint halftime replay thing with no announcing to it, they dont bother to show you a teams record or anything but they will show you the computers ring builder status in franchise. i would really like to know what portion of this game plays as advertised? what even makes this game playable? i may be the only person with this issue but my game disconnects whenever I playaction pass online. ive never had internet connection problems on any other game ever. thi game is just pure trash and it kills me that i was basically convinced to buy this game from numerous glowing reviews and I cant beleive how all of these issues didnt come up in any reviews or previews.

The problems you have with this game are certainly valid. You can't use the "playaction pass/disconnect" thing in your dispute though, because you are the first and only person I've ever of having that problem.
To say that because there are no stat overlays and no win/loss record of the team you're playing against being shown pregame all make this game unplayable is, again, a bit on the extreme side.
Please realize that as long as you take such an extreme stance in that direction, very few people will take anything you say seriously.Comment
