    this would be cool if it wasn't rife with errors. The "x-ray" injury view was in there in 06, not 09. And players have had flags on their helmets since 2001 (you can guess why) and madden has included them since 2003. Maybe if people actually bothered to sit down and play the game instead of bash it they would notice more of the nice details that separate each Madden release.

    People like to bash Madden for not changing much, but the way I see it, it's a good thing.

    Now I'm no fan of sports or sports games, but this is something I wish we could see more of in gaming. Companies need to be more loyal to their existing fanbases. When you change things up too much, it's a slap in the face to existing fans of a franchise. If you want to try radically new and different things, you should do it in a spinoff title or new IP.

    @SacGamer: You know what would be awesome for the consumer?

    Madden updates. You pay a subscriber fee to download the "fantasy" stats for Madden. You buy the "Madden Engine XVI" game every two years.

    Would they loose money?

    Probably not, because there would be tons of subscribers, whereas, there are tons of aftermarket buyers right now. Essentially, more people would buy a new game released every two or three years rather than every year.

    The constant fantasy updates provides a great value for the consumer and creates an incentive to buy the new game rather than the old game (from somewhere like *ahem* GameStop).

    I have a feeling that moving to a plan like this would provide more significant updates to the Madden franchise that had a more refined and definitive feel as well as a greater incentive to buy a new retail product rather than a used version of last years title for dirt cheap.

    @dsi1: Madden doesn't change much except for a few features and the rosters.

    EA could make more money by releasing ONE Madden game and putting all the other features on DLC for maybe $20 per year.More people would buy Madden as it is like that, it would be cheaper to make, and EA would still make a fortune.

    If they need to make separate stand alone games, do more than just a few gimmicks and roster change. I wanted to punch my cousin who buys each edition of Madden BECAUSE of the roster change.

    Damn 3 out of 10 for the Madden quiz (I never played one :/)
    But the other tests like the Nintendo, Sony, MS, etc quiz were consistently 7-8, but then I remembered this is counted as a game score, so I flopped :(

    10/10 although one did give me pause,(the lamp carrying chap) I couldn't for the life of me remember the name I would have been stuck if it wasn't a multiple choice quiz.

    @dracosummoner: Hey, I earned 10/10 on the Nintendo quiz too!

    @TrjnRabbit: I recognized Doki Doki Panic immediately, so I got that superbly. Somehow, Super Punchout and Eternal Darkness almost killed the correct answer streak.

    By singling out that MGS had no Blue Screen of Death, but a Hideo screen, and RE Zero never had such a thing, I chose the right answer! (I forgot what the other two were, but I singled those out too.)

    If you get chance you really should do it's very good. I ended up with a save game especially set up so I could show my friends all the different things that can happen.
    If you can find a cheap second hand copy I would certainly recommend it to anybody.
