Fuck the PS3, they seem to think they are so wonderful at sony that they dont bother releasing any worthwhile games on PS alone.  im 360 all the way for now!

oh gamertag is Scurto32

HUH? They basically make games for both consoles in every way except a few...

How can you not love these commercials:

Yeah Bro, dont get me wrong i know most games are released across both platforms but there are just not really any games specific to the PS3 that makes me want to rush out and get it.  I mean that Unchartered series is quite fun from what i played at a friends but i cant off the top of my head think of any game that i would need to have a PS3 for.

Anyway, just to be clear, i appreciate the PS3 and i do like what sony have done with it, i just dont think its an improvement enough over my 360 to force me to change over.  I was always a Playstation guy but when the PS3 was delayed in coming out for like 2 years i went with a 360 and have been enjoying since.

Well, anyway.  its nice to have a little chat with ya about this. unfortunately i must now head out to college.

Madden is a bullshit game,  with that said because the pricks at EA Sports have a monopoly I unfortunately have to play this game and that is the way it is.  The interceptions are absolute bullshit, and the fumbles are shit to.  I know some of you are going to say,  hey, this is a video game,  well my answer to that is that EA says that it is the most realistic game they have made.  If the average number of turnovers in a real nfl game is about 2.0 or 2.5 then I have real problem when at the end of the game there is 7 turnovers between the two opponents.  The linebackers ability to have a 100 inch vertical and pick balls off in the air is garbage. I wish they would not put out a new game for about 3 years until they can redesign an entire new game, just do a roster update for about 20 bucks until they get a better game.  Madden was way better when they had competition.  The Madden guys need to go and ask the NHL boys to help them out.  NHL won just about every award you can win, and it is very realistic.   Even NBA live is better than Madden as far as realism.
With all this said, like a METH addict I purchase it every year, and every year I bitch about it.  But Football is my favorite and the guys at EA count on poeple like me.  They have got us by the balls because it is the only game to buy and they dont have to do one fucking thing, and we cant do anything about it.

I have to agree with most of your points made here bro.  I have been playing madden since back on the Sega mega Drive (ah how i miss those days) and i feel that 09 was the best in recent years.  The focus on fumble pile ups was a cool idea at first as it was fresh, but then you come to realise it has just increased the already abundant amount of turnovers in a 5 min quarter game!!!

I just fucking wish that the Raiders did cause the same amount of turnovers in real life as we do in my franchise! Plus Kirk Morrison is a monster against the run...However i shall have to offload him now in light of his recent departure to the retirement state.

Got your gamer invite too Raiderboy, i will hit you up to play some good old shit madden 10 soon! I wanna see if the co-op is as fun as they advertise it to be!

peace out nation

[HELLRAIDER]

The simple fact that the madden meth addicts line the pockets of a very respected football man. Who knows with all his millions he might just end up buying a controlling interest from Mark Davis when he retires. . . It's just like how i love Chucky as a Monday Night football commentator. Another guy who's not going to say a bad word about the team. Madden will have his name associated with the football video game for eternity.

what the hell does that quote have to do with the game.  I was talking about the football game.  i know what you are saying, but I want improvements made to the game.  its the same fucking game every year. lots of int's and lots of fumbles.  same game different year.  i would like an opportunity to play something different.

Here's a cool article i read on the new madden gameplay... could be fun?

Hands-on: Is Madden 11 taking the coaching out of football?


When you play Madden, do you feel more like the coach or the quarterback?
(Credit: EA)

Is Madden about being an armchair coach or an armchair quarterback? I admit, when I play Madden as the Jets, I increasingly avoid calling plays. I default to the "Madden picks" because I'm lazy, and I want to dive right into the plays. I'm more interested in how a team matches up against another than how my virtual coaching skills are.

A funny thing happened when I sat down to play a little of EA's upcoming release of Madden 11 at a pre-NFL draft event. While this year's iteration doesn't seem to have changed a whole lot in terms of basic gameplay, the play calling shows a major philosophy shift. A default setting called "Gameflow" aims to eliminate play calling by auto-selecting a play for every down, based on a team's actual playbook and play-calling tendencies.

While this sounds like a dumbing down of Madden, the focus seems to be on recreating the QB's perspective. Plugging in a headset will put the coach's voice in your ear, offering heads-up strategy after the huddle. We tried it, and found it pretty fun. The audibling system is streamlined this year, and EA claims it will be easier to dial up more plays than the default five or so that come up without resorting to Hot Routes. Calling an impromptu deep pass or run play was easier, although we found it hard to customize in our few minutes of play.
Madden 11 (photos)

Even more interesting was Gameplan, an AI script of sorts showing a team's tendency to call plays based on down and situation. Players can tune their own Gameplans by rating individual plays and dialing up or down their frequency of being called, subbing in new plays, or even limiting a situation to one or two go-tos (for instance, you could program all third-and-shorts to be a play-action bomb). This could make Gameflow a lot more interesting.

An EA rep who demoed Madden for us claimed that most users only call 13 plays in an average game. Gameflow, according to EA, also will shorten online games from 40 minutes plus down to about 20 minutes, giving a quicker-fix feeling and allowing those with a football jones to more easily squeeze in a game rather than having a long session. In our limited time with it, Gameflow felt like a streamlined "Ask Madden," skipping play calling altogether and continually leaving the option open to call up the full playbook if desired. Essentially, you could play a whole game without seeing a single play-selection screen.

First of all: Do you feel like you call more than 13 plays a game? If so, do you think Gameflow is a good direction for Madden? We look forward to playing it again as its August release date, and the NFL preseason, approaches.

Damn this shit is freaky the Madden Curse holds true!...Troy Palamu(Steelers) on the cover of Madden10' this year with Larry Fitzgerald...and Troy has played one game and now injured his MCL last night vs Titans. Freaky shit Larry Fitzgerald is next. If he gets hurt that'll be real crazy!.

I 4got all about that haha Yeah the Madden curse don't fuck around!

[HELLRAIDER]

The game overall has some nice improvements from last years version.   THE TURNOVERS ARE BULLSHIT.  TOO MANY FUMBLES AND WAY TOO MANY INTERCEPTIONS.   THIS IS A SOURCE OF FRUSTRATION EVERY YEAR.   THEY WONT IMPROVE IT BECAUSE THEY DONT HAVE TOO.   If you want NFL football you will buy it and they know it.  They dont have to improve a fucking thing because they are the only cocksuckers who get to make the game.    If you are looking forward to running with McFadden then you will be upset.  The computer makes him fumble a hell of alot.     Overall still a good game besides that.  The fight for the fumble is bullshit as well.  If any one is up for a game on 360 my Gamer tag is OAKLANDRAIDER77.  Send me a friend request,  I would love to talk some Raiders football.

[raidersully]

madden has been the same since 04

Not anymore. Madden 10 has taken leaps and bounds into the future of football video games.

[raidersully]

Has anyone bought the Madden 10' yet?... if so leave me note of what you thought about it and if it's worth the cash.

Very worth the money...much better than 09...and 09 was the best title in franchise history.

Roster updates are phnomenal...Vick was on philly's roster within 2 hours of the announcement.

Go ahead, drop the $60 on it...I did for 360 and its worth it!!!

Could not agree with you more Virginia Raider. I love the improvements to the game. The running game seems way more fluid and playing the d-line is much easier without the bullshit swim moves. This is BY FAR the best Madden of all time. In term of overall feel, look, and playability. None are even close.

YOU NEED TO REMIND HIM OF THAT SUPERBOWL WHERE THE OAKLAND RAIDERS KILLED JAWS AND THE EAGLES! AND THE COACH STARTED CRYING! BECAUSE THEY LOST! ASK HIM ABOUT ROD MARTIN! JIM PLUNKETT!  THEY MAY HAVE NFL TITLES, DONAVAN AND MAY HAVE WON SOME GAMES BUT NO, ZERO, SILT SUPERBOWLS!!!

I was playing my nephew's PSP and he had Madden......of course I had the Raiders and I blitzed the mess out of Romo....had his head spinning.  Burgess was giving him hell in the backfield......and Morrison and Richardson was in his grill too.  I think the game had to be on easy or something....I was destroying them jokers.....I thought....."Boy do I wish we could do this in real life.....I would never shut up.....I would talk so much stuff that people would avoid me when they'd seem me coming".......lol.

Oh.....on the same note......my lil nephew who "used" to be a Raiders fan told me he was an Eagles fan.  You know I 'bout tried to kill him today......me and his dad are die-hard Raiders fans......so I called him a traitor.  I asked him "What's wrong there boy......we lose too much for ya now and you jumped off the wagon"........he had such a pitiful look.....but I had to teach him that when you have a team and you're a true fan you stick by them no matter what.
