    Are You Going to be an Elitist?

    for those that don't know what it is:

    First, let's go with the feature that's likely totally new to most reading this. It's called Elite Status and it's sure to start a tizzy on the forums once people read the words "Pay DLC" attached to it. But never fear, it's totally optional and should only be considered as a viable purchase by the truly hardcore Madden fans out there. It costs five bucks (400 points on XBL) and it unlocks what is essentially a VIP online world.

    This exclusive club of sorts gets you into the Elite online community and you'll get your own private lobbies and private leaderboards. Beyond that, EA Sports is planning on allowing for some sort of avenue for these hardcore fans to easily communicate with the Madden development team. Beyond that, Elite players will also be the only ones in the Madden online world that will be able to play a ranked match on the All-Madden difficulty setting. The standard ranked match difficulty setting of All-Pro will still be available, but these hardcore fans can take the game to the next level. As an added bonus, the players who pay for the DLC will have their online name colored in gold so everyone in the lobby will know when an elitist enters the room.

    It's important to remember that Elite Status is a totally optional five-dollar download. There's no reason to make the investment unless you're being bombarded with cheaters and find yourself wanting a more faithful online experience. Or if you're 12 and really just want that gold plate on your gamertag.

    My score for Madden 13: 4.5/10

    3 points for graphics, 1 point for the passable commentary, and a half point for the boxart. I can give no further points since the all over the place gameplay would ruin it anyway.

    Nope. Even if I played online with people other than my friends, I wouldn't be interested.

                    You say that now but I guarantee you noobsauce little kids are going to ruin it for people with your mindset. Online gaming has become a tragedy. I wish you luck though.

                      I will not get it, I don't play online.

                      I am not sure if that will really root out immature players though. Maybe it will turn out to be a self-fulfilling prophecy and work out that way. However a $5 entrance fee is not exactly prohibitive to any specific demographic.

                        as much as Madden has improved so far, I still gotta say NO. I was actually looking for the poll option of HECK NO!

                          Thats pretty lame that they charge you to play ranked game on all madden.

                          What if All-Madden is the online way to go for a better experience.

                          Kinda lame EA. But keep those revenue streams going.

                            The only DLC I'd be willing to pay for right now are classic teams with real names ... as long as all the money went to the retired players.
