Madden is the perfect example of this..a patch was being planned as soon as the game went gold.

I honestly think EA should consider putting Madden out every two years, with a large update patch for the tween year. Dishing up a game every year, and they don't even really have a full year to work on it is just too much pressure.

Good business plan, though.
