I've been on reading posts on these forums for a couple years now, since Madden 09 and have been a Madden fan since 05. I just wanted to address a couple things I've seen on the forums.
I thought that Operation Sports was a website dedicated to the love of Sports Gaming. How come so many of you only come on this forum to bash Madden and it's features. I found that I used to enjoy Madden much more before I came here because now I only notice the games flaws because the dead horse is being beaten here 24/7.
If more of you guys focused more on having fun with the game because of your love for the sport, and not with finding the most perfect football game on the Consoles, you'll find yourselves having more and more fun again. The fact is, if 2K had bought the rights to the Licenses then we would also find glitches, bugs, and features to complain about with them. No video game company has the manpower to put everything in a game to make every customer happy.
In addition to all of that, Football is an "Any Given Sunday" game. Its meant to be different every week, every year. No game can replicate something that is new and different every week. The point of Madden is to make your own history with a Football game, not last weeks; and if that is your goal, your better off watching film then trying to do it in any football game.
The point I'm trying to make is that the less time you spend trying to nitpick a video game the more time you'll be having fun on Madden or any other video game for that matter. You'll enjoy coming on the forums every year more to talk about your excitement for the game rather than desperately trying to be the first one to find it's flaws. Watching Madden grow for me every year is sort of like watching a Stand Up Comedy act. Does anybody really go to a Comedy Club looking to watch the Comedian fail, or do we really want him just to be great so we can have a good laugh? I'd rather see Madden do great then try to find it's every issue.
