Great article and great points. I really hate EA for what they have done to football gaming. Football games online have the potential to be some of the best 1 on 1 experiences in gaming, but with the stagnation and corporate mentality of EA, this has not happened.

I live 5 mins away from Tiburon and have gone there more then once. The arrogance there is sickening to me. Nice guys, but extremely cocky about a subpar game.

It's like music, look at Sub Pop and their roster of truly innovative bands then go look at a Major labels and their cookie cutter emo rosters...same type of thing...we need more creativity and forward thinking in Madden for it to become truly special. It is the NFL and should be electric..instead, the game feels sterile and predictable.
