No, it isnt. VC decided, a little too late it turns out, that they would go with 3d polygon technology instead of 2d sprites. EA saw an unfinished version of the game, and loved it. They began promoting Madden 96 as the New Age of Madden. Then, September came, and it wasnt done. Then, October. Finally, EA pulled the plug and was so furious that Sony's Gameday was the only football title, and very successful, on the new Playstation. They cut all ties with VC in and bashed them ever since.
