Haven't played it since ray lewis was on the cover. I was ranked #89 in the US at the time. Had 10 straight shutouts in online play. I have no urge to play a xbox ps3 game at all anymore. I gotten old brehs

Isn't it the highest selling game every year? :mjpls:

Although all madden is nowadays is a glorified roster update:snoop:

Its always gonna sell though. How do you tell a 16 yr old not to cop madden. A 21+ yr old already knows the game thats been pulled over our heads. I still got my madden 94 for my sega genesis.

as long as there are new teenagers there will be new prey

u ain't gotta be a senior citizen to be forgotten out chea brehs

Madden is just as popular as ever.

You still got casual football fans who, "aye you got dat new madden dawg? It's tight"

They dont care that half the game doesnt function properly, all they care about is graphics. These are the ppl EA depends on for business.

It bit them on the ass when they couldnt buy away the NBA license tho. So they have to fold up shop. Any real competition and they can't compete.

Madden is just as popular as ever. It's still a pop culture sensation.

I just wish they had some competition. It's the lack of competition that results in people paying so much fukking money for a game with little to no improvements. The NFL striking that exclusive deal with EA killed football sims.
