Good video guys, not alot of leaks about madden11 which i think was good because when leaks are put out, and the final version of the game is done and ppl dont see the things they were promised, it makes for alot of negativity. Im excited to hear more news on the game as we get closer. Thanks again.

The reason I do not like video blogs is because there is way too much talking. Give me a print version so I can scroll through and skip the parts I want to skip.

What the business is fellas?

I'm not going to complain. No sense in it really.

Unfortunately, no matter what is posted, someone has gotta say something stuuupiiid LOL, so I won't add to it. LOL!

We are die hard fans of the game. We want info. Nothing is ever enough lol. This is a given.

What I was hoping for, like Shopmaster, was at least ONE TASTY TIDBIT of information like, hmmm, this year, FORMATION SUBS are definitely IN! Wooop Wooop!

I'm not sure if I know anything at all about Madden 11 after watching the video except that it will be better than Madden 10, more realistic and an improvement on M10. This much I could have figured out myself, but all in all, I liked the style of it, there was comedy, it was laid back, Donnie Moore got censured LOL that was funny as hell.

So hell, I will patiently wait for the next blog. The closer we get, more will be revealed. I'm not worried at all. I am going to play the hell outa M11 even more than M10. We know this.

TRUST ME, I'M A DOCTOR! LOL!

too late doc. i wonder if you add LOL to the end of your prescriptions for your patients? LOL

i was really hoping they would identify and admit the problems in 10 and talk about solutions not super bowl picks. if this is any indication of what's to come i think i'll pass on 11.

LOL! Hey, what's up falconfansince81!!!

I'm not a medical doctor, so no prescriptions. Even funnier would be placing an LOL on my bills!

Yeah, I would have liked to have seen something like that too. That would have been right on point. Let's hope EA addresses these issues in a future blog. Hopefully, Will or Justin will read this and pass it along to the team.

I think it's way too early to give up on M11. Hang in there with me brother.

What you describe is just what the Doctor "would have" ordered! LOL!

Ian: Who are you?

Taylor: I'm John Taylor.

Ian: What do you do?

Taylor: I'm aaaaa...Technical Artist.....slash whatever....firefighter, I guess.

Ian: ...Oh.



Yea, that's just fantastic. This guy really looks like he is excited to be doing.....well....anything involving Madden. Even he didn't sound like he was the least bit enthused about what was going on, even to the point he didn't even remember he was the "/ Designer". And don't even get me started on Mr. Mark "Um, well, yea, I am the rookie here" Turmell. At this point, I don't feel it's a good idea to bring in a guy who obviously doesn't look like he knows much about Madden...which is obvious by the fact he couldn't even get EA's famous, little white lie motto right. "IF you see it in the sport...it's uh...it's in the game." I would rather have seen a former player be hired as the Executive Director than this guy. What they need to consider doing is take every position on the field and find a former player, preferably Hall of Famer, at each of those positions and have them give their insight on how the players at that position would play or react. Not on every aspect, but what each player is expected to do when certain things happen on the field. I don't know...just do something instead of bringing in an Arcade guy who acts like he doesn't know much about Madden. I will definitely be keeping an eye out for more info, but I will not be buying Madden when it is released. The most I will do is put it on my Gamefly list, and even then I'm not sure if it will be deserving of taking up a "Games You Have Out" slot until I find out from the community if anything has changed.

Cheaters are running madden!!!

This cannot be expressed enough IAN and EA!

It is sad when you have almost every game played and you have to counter the flaws instead of what the offense or defense throws at you without you yourself engaging in the cheating tactics to counter this crap.

Madden 10 has its improvements but the community i deal and play with in regards to leagues and online franchises is where its the only place to play a safe good game now days. Out of the 50 PS3 games I own, madden gets played more than any of them and as of late, thats all going to change.

Before people come in and bash what im saying, please read my post and COMPREHEND the message thats being delivered. There are no glitches on the field of football or cheats either, but to subject you fellow customers to this kind of activity with your product is just dis-tasteful. If having to play in franchises or finding leagues that seem to take forever to get games in due to others lives and schedules, does not suit me or others who feel like me.

Shotgun formation has its flaws

Manaully placing defenders out of there normal position is also killing the online arena, this is the leading cause of nanos and unrealistic tactics that benefit the individual who uses them.

The scrambling QB sistuation seems to always find its way back into madden no matter how hard you guys preach thats its been resolved. I still see people who take off running backwards and making blind arrogant passes and completing them with 100% accuracy. Physics doesnt even play a factor into this equation, body movement can throw the trajectory of a pass off my a mile when people are running backwards and turn around and throw without stopping to get there footing down.

I just hope you guys are on point, and like I said before, MADDEN 10 HAS ITS IMPROVEMENTS!!!

Just keep building off of this and fix the known issues we have today with the game, I am pretty sure we all can agree that the GFX doesnt need to be tweaked or changed. I will gladly take madden 10 with updated gameplay and rosters and some new gameplay features.

But I hate going online and playing in public lobbies due to the infestation of the cheaters and glitchers, you guys re quik to shutdonw some youtube leaks of games or gameplay footage from press confrences or community day things. So why not shutdown the websites that promote and sell cheats?

When is madden gna go back 2 making franchise great outside of the game, bringing back things like practice, creating plays, scouting ur next opponent, even the little things like the newspaper back on the ps2 verson was good. what about training camp, why not make that into a 4 week event on its own, or mini games during the pro bowl week, how bout a more effective way 2 scout the next draft class, bring back the senior bowl, pro days and individual drills, why not make the entire draft into something big, with more analysist from sports casters like madden has done in the past, y not show more mascots and finally bring back cheerleaders, why not make homefield advantage and momentum mean something like they have done in the ncaa brand, i want the croud noise to take effect like makin the controllers rumber when the crowds r rawring, how about different presentations for different games or how about better and longer pregame and post game shows, why not make nfc games look like if fox is brodcasting them and afc games as tho cbs is doing the same, i want monday night football games to feel more like ur in primetime, and weather to b more of a difference in the game, how bout alot more commentary and a larger variety of it from more analyst. i ge tired of hearing the same 2 boring anouncers saying the same thing over n over again, the game play is good its everything else tht sux, i wanna b able 2 build a staduim for my team without having to relocate them, and i wana b able to keep my teams exact uniforms and logos when i do wanna relocate them, i get tired of having to change the way my team looks when wanna move the niners 2 santa clara or the raiders back 2 LA, why not make teams who arent making any money or winning games just move to a different city and starting fresh, n whatever happend to restricted free agents, its the little things tht count and madden seams to b getting rid of them
