    Is it really that crazy?

    Am i just dreaming to think that madden could simply go to a two disk set? I ask because we constantly get the we have to work within the allowed disk space excuse.

    It would be simple have a disk called Madden 2010 Franchise- Where ofcourse all of your franchise needs would be delt with

    The second disk would be siomething like Madden 2010 All Out- Where you could play single player, online, minigames, historic challenges.

    There are two options in selling this. A $70 two disk set or $34.99 for each game. I doubt the money hungry licence owners would go fro the 2 games thing altho they would if they were both $59.99.

    To me this solves so many problems and gives a gamer a choice of what they are buying. I really dont think thyey would lose out on a ton of money because a majority of pople play both online and franchise so they would be making money.

    Games used to have multiple disks back in the day so there should be no reason not to have them now. In regards to the disk space, there should be no excuses on the PS3 side using the space available on the Blu Ray disk.

      Hmm...can you give examples of people 'constantly' giving that excuse? I've never said disc space is a limiting issue...and it really isn't (especially on PS3).

        Isnt that what they basically did with the Head Coach series?...EA can barely put together one desent game.Just let them pay full attention to the Madden series and getting that game together.

          To reply to Ian..my apoligies for not being more clear. I have heard it here a few times not by you that i can find but its there and i will find it if need be. I was initially goal was to talk about sports games in genral and how they can make the most of disk space by using more then one disk if needed but since this is the madden forum i went to that as an example altho not clearly obv. As for the ps3 i dont have one so i would have no idea.

            I've seen Ian state specifically that disk space is NOT an issue at this point...so why put out a 2 disk set when they aren't even using a full single disk now??

              If I recall correctly, it's not disc space thats the issue. It's console spec limitations.

                Ian has stated many times before that it's the lack of RAM on the consoles, not the lack of disk space.

                  You really have not been paying much attention to EA's releases this year, Probably EA's best year in quality games...

                    You are right I did not pay much attention this year because there was no need to.Same thing different year as always.

                        First off im not anti EA.I don't run around these boards bashing EA,I want to see Madden become a better game just as much as the next man because it's beneficial to us all as sports gamers.So don't get it twisted like im on here just to bash cause im not.

                            Gran Tourismo for PS2 came on two discs, I believe: "Simulation", and "Arcade".

                            How cool would that be for Madden? Everyone would get what they want..

                              You have to admit that if it was a issue the Guy has a good Idea. I like it homie, but thankfully it isnt about the disc as it was stated, but I can see why u thought so since so much data needs to be used for a Football to fit our needs lol.

                              We sure do want it all, and why not.
