Will the new Strategy Pad possibly keep you from buying Madden 11?

Overblow it more.

I don't need to, the poll speaks for itself!

ODogg, even though the poll question says "due to this change"...I think most people are saying they won't buy the game, period. And even then, if they're in the forum...they're probably buying the game... at some point.

If I knew I could afford it, I'd say yeah I'm buying the game. That's what's stopping me, LOL. If M11 isn't different enough from M10, then I'll get the half priced version.

There is no doubt in my mind you actually do believe that poll to be a valid argument for your point. Which is funny, but not real logical.

This poll is currently 126 yes (64.62%) and 69 no (35.28%). So perhaps the demo has actually changed a few minds.

LOL.. I guess the Demo was a success then.

Those polls are not comparative. One is polling everyone, asking if they plan to buy the game. Another (mine) is polling those who had intended to buy the game but will choose to abstain due to this strategy pad issue.

Yes ODogg, that's what your question asks, but people answering don't know. This happens all the time in polls, people say one thing, and say it's for one reason, then do a completely different thing for a different reason. You learn about this all the time in sales. Customers don't always know what they want

That's not true. Your polls asks "Will the Strategy Pad keep you from buying Madden".

That's polling everyone. There is no mention or way of discerning whether the people voting were intending on purchasing Madden in the first place.

I for example voted on the poll and I am still on the fence as to whether or not I will buy Madden. My vote shows that the S-Pad will have no bearing on my purchase decision.
