How Madden could be better

No offence... but American Football is not played in England, I've watched it on TV a couple of times, and there is no continues action, tonnes of stoppage to talk about what play their going to make next. The game is like a slow Rugby. At least if a game is decided by Penalties; it ends..

btw. it's spelt Douche.

How could an American football fan not be offended you jackass.

You like football, thats great. I dont mind it but I like American football much better, do I go around to the football forums saying the sport of football sucks? No.

So why should you? Oh thats right because you are close minded ******* who has to go around telling people that the sport sucks even though they havent played it, or grew up watching it.

And by the way ( thats how it's spelt), football ends.

Jesus yes. Thats the problem with soccer...

So I'm not allowed to have an opinion on a sport just because I haven't grown up watching it and as a matter of fact I have played it; I have a few friends at school that love the game and bring in their ball, so we used to play it at lunch.

How am I being closed minded... as I said, I have watched a couple of times, in fact I've watched the superbowl for the last 3 years (basically the only game that is shown in the UK).

Also I'm not a fan of European football either, I think it's shit that it ends with a penalty shootout.

the point was if you dont like american football and you dont like madden, why come in a madden thread and just make posts talking trash. Its just immature. You are allowed to not like it thats fine but why go out of your way to make sure everyone knows you dont like it.

ermm

The thread is really talking about Madden in a negative way... just read the title....

Plus, I've never said I don't like the game, Madden is a great laugh with a couple of beers and a couple friends, not as fun as NFL Street but still fun.

I might of gone too extreme there, but it's annoying when people from the UK go on the NFL threads, or videogame threads and start calling it an shitty sport, boring sport, why the hell is called football sport and football is for pussies, when the majority of NFL fans in KMC do not do the same.

To be fair, I've seen far more people criticise European Football, than US

Not around here though.

It isnt the criticism, they go out of their way to criticize the game, while NFL fans do not.

yea im not a huge fan of soccer as we call it, but i can get into it a little and i dont go talk shit about it eventhough i much prefer NFL. The thread isnt really a negative one. Its just looking for madden players to provide suggestions on things theyd like changed, not to whore on the sport of football. But I will appologize for my harshness some because you dont seem so bad. It just gets old dealing with people like Smasandian described.

Well, maybe not a negative way but the thread is for constructive criticism and I'll admit that my comment was barely constructive. I'll lie and blame it on the fact it was posted late at night/early morning... not really an excuse but whatever. Sorry if I upset you NFL fans though, wasn't really my intention.

Madden games piss me off, everytime I call EBGames or go in in August they always try to pressure me into pre-ordering this damn thing! It's basically the identical thing as the year before also! 😠

Somewhat, but considering I spend atleast 100 hundred hours playing it per year, I dont really see a problem.

And they do add pretty invaluble features every year and having up to date rosters and everything else makes an huge football fan dream come true.

yea i could see how if your a casual player/fan you wouldnt care much for a new one every year. But to use die hard fans its actually a nice thing to look forward too. ANd they have been good as of late at adding some nice features every time.

I can wait until next week.

Just the thought of rearranging my rosters is exicting. I dont know why, but it is, and that Im really good at making trades.

I'm also exicted to see the 360 game after they had another year to get used to the hardware. If NCAA is similar to Madde, they're are some really cool animations.

But the most thing I'm looking forward to is the realistic running styles of each RB.

yea my rosters on 06 are very up to date. As far as offseason trades or free agents. And Progression for some bigger name players. But EA is lame wiht updating officialy. So if you play online your gonna have a team that is very old and not even correct as of the playoffs. So it will be nice to have proper teams again online.

Haven't played an NFL game in years, but this years Madden looks really promising. I used to enjoy Madden on the PSX and N64. I may pick it up.

I just love Madden. It literally gives me months of entertainmen, which no other game does.

I dont play it online though, too much presurre to win, so I just play against the computer in franchise mode.

i used to always do that, but i recently started playing online and ive actually gotten in a lot of good games. Im 4-5 right now started 0-4 so its going alright. I just had the most rediculous loss though that was really frustrating. But its fun adjusting to a real opponent CPU just gets too easy in franchise mode my team is UNREAL.

Well my actual franchise teams are too good, but I generally play 5 years or so with my first team, which I always fantasy draft.

And then, I generally take the original Cowboy's team, fix it up by trading, and then play 7-8 years..

and then play teams that are soo bad, or soo good until roughly start of Superbowl, and then I usually finish playing the game until I buy the new one.

But during the course of time, I play a crap load of games, and spend hours fixing my rosters, drafting and such.

I'm soo exicted about this year's Madden. Pre ordering tomorrow.
