After reading the post from Anim8tor and also hearing some thoughts from Ian, I really am seeing the disgust you guys have from some of these boards..And I want to be the first to say that I dont blame you..These people suck sometime..they really do..

You probably feel like everytime you fix one thing..people either dont believe its really fixed or they want something else..right??

Well I'd like to give an explanation for that..the madden team has a tendacy to not exactly be dishonest..but not tell the whole truth..and even if theres a new madden team..you still become apart of that reputation...So although madden has been a absolute gimmick for years..I'd like to give you the reasons for all the criticism off madden 09 alone.....

TO SHOW..OR NOT TO SHOW??

- You showed us the beautiful sideline catches...but you didnt show us that you have to run that play 15 times just to get the receiver to actually attempt to catch the ball inbounds.

- You showed us the video of new ways to break a tackle(different animations)..You didnt tell us those were the only ways to break a tackle.

- You showed LT flipping into the endzone..You didnt show us that Orlando pace could do it too.

- You showed running backs tossing dbs out their way...You didnt show running backs tossing DT's out their way.

- You told us running backs would bounce off of their lineman..but in the game we never see that..I guess thats why you didnt show us huh?

- You showed us eye paint..you didnt show us that we couldnt use it...Ok that was minor but who cares.

There is plenty more I could add..but thats just an example of how the information you told us last year turned out to be...cough..cough..bull$8it..Yes..what you tell us is very convincing..but It was last year too..and come on guys..the screenshots do, and always have looked better than the gameplay..You have the best graphics! Duh! Please stop trying to fool us with that..

You want to do better..heres in idea...do less comparison videos with madden 09..and more comparisons with I dont know...an actual nfl game?? just a thought..

I still apologize because people get out of hand..and people will always want more than they can get..but there is no way you dont understand where we're coming from..You probably know some of the stuff your saying is garbage before you say it..No matter what you still have to sell the game right? Are you willing to be honest with us with the risk of selling less games? I doubt it.

Just had to get that out..thanks for listening..
