Specific examples of how EA tells us BLATANT lies

[TheTrueCatch22]

I know this is my first post here, so I'll briefly introduce myself...I've been playing Madden for the last 20years. I've been a member on the Playstation forums for over 6years. Like many, I'm disappointed with the direction Madden has taken, especially over the last 5 or so years.

I made a video to point out how EA blatantly lies to us. It is in response to video I came across while on YouTube. I honest to god couldn't believe what they were saying in this interview. It was like a slap in the face. They are taking us for fools...check it out

Thank you kind citizen. If not for you, I may have spent $60 on this game.

To sum it up they should have said next gen madden not a big deal to make youtube video about it.

A YouTube video OF a YouTube video might create some weird rip in the space-time continuum. Please discontinue these practices.

They should have said next gen Madden? Well that brings stronger attention to the decline of the game. All of these things were present in "last gen" Madden...but now, 5 years into the next gen, they are JUST putting these features back?

I mean seriously, what was the point of taking them out? And they are most certainly marketing these things as brand new features and hoping that younger games won't realize that these "new" details were once a standard part of the game as far back as 1993.

If I was you, I would make a youtube video documenting all these "lies". Oh wait....

You came to the worst possible place to bash madden. They're rounding up the firing squad right now.

I agree. I've seen the majority of these things before over the years from Madden and I too have been playing Madden since 1989. With the exception of eight man gang tackling of course. :wink:

You're like the "media" who criticize everything a politician says.

Easy,man. If you're upset with EA, don't buy the game. Simple as that.

Re: Specific examples of how EA tells us BLATANT lies

this is basically nonsense...

the entire point of that 7 min rant was to show that EA is claiming some features as new to Madden (like refs/chain gangs/cut scenes) that were in past gen versions. however these are new features to the next gen build, which was from scratch -- so none of these old features were never really taken out and then put back in again.

yikes, way to get all worked up over semantics.


...oh yeah, and in before the lock
