I still have Madden '05 and have been playing it to get my pro football fix. Sure its not updated, but its better than playing thru a game I dislike or not playing at all in my opinion.

I currently rotate between 2k5, Madden 08, Tecmo Throwback, APF and very rarely...Backbreaker. Like I said, I'm passionate about football.

Bottom line each of those options has a fatal flaw. Either there is no updated rostes, no HD graphics, no NFL or I have simply played them out. Tough to play any title for several years straight and not get bored of them.

I don't exactly have all my eggs in the Madden 12 basket, but I haven't had a new game I liked in 3 years. I'm desperate for a new football game I actually enjoy. I suspect most of the Madden "haters" on the internet have similar feelings on this. Not all of them (including me) are very good at expressing it most of the time.
