As boredom set in at just about midnight I decided to try something I had yet to give a shot too. Normally I avoid 'My Player' modes like the plague because they are routinely terrible. However with NBA 2K11 in my possession I figured if there was one game to try it in, I had it. Let the records show that I'm pretty terrible at actually playing this game. So as my frustration mounted at missing every shot and losing the ball if a hummingbird landed on it, I responded as I often do in such circumstances, ... Read More

Don't you just love a bargain?

Okay, so let me just preface this by saying that the last NCAA Football game that I really enjoyed was 2005 on the PS2.

Now, having said that, just a short while ago I pre-ordered NCAA Football 13 for my Xbox 360 on Amazon. This is the latest in the line of awesome savings that Amazon offers and with there being a fifteen dollar price drop for a brand new copy on release day, my common sense could not disagree. When I thought about it, I was astonished by the fact that I would be saving ... Read More

A Startling Revelation! Actually, I've Just Been Bored.

I was going to start this one with a nod to Stan Lee by saying "Hello, True Believers!", but then upon further research, everyone does that, so in lieu of that I will say "Greetings! People, who are also bored and share some similar interests possibly!".

Okay now that I have that out the way, I thought I would join a chorus. In a sense. Not a real one, if I sing I sound like a chipper mountain goat. But the chorus of people bemoaning aspects of Madden that are just now catching up ... Read More

So I just finished reading the extensive (it feels good to say that) franchise blog for Madden 12 and I am legitimately excited for it. Around this time last year I was ranting to whoever happened to be around me at any given time about how incredibly stupid the Madden development team was for the "improvements" they aimed for in Madden 11, so this is an absolute upgrade year-over-year. Admittedly Madden 11 managed to live perfectly down to expectations, but to look to the future, Madden 12 has ... Read More

My Reckoning

Well, here we are at Madden Eve, in fact only 4 more hours till the midnight release. Now I have made my thoughts on Madden NF 11 very clear, so I understand if you take this with a grain of salt, but I am excited. This is the excitement of getting caught up in the moment, like when you got a new toy as a kid and you played with it constantly for a week thinking that it was the best thing ever invented. Then of course after a week you just kinda forget about it under 10 years later when you find ... Read More

Wishlist for a hopeful future

Now that I have settled into trudging through the muck that Madden 11 will be, I figure I might as well tease myself with what may lie in the future if, as promised, there will be major changes in franchise mode for Madden 12. So if you will humor me, here is my humble list (in no particular order):

* More variety in contract negotiations--
Right now the current structure of a Madden is contract is as follows: 80 rated Guard needs to be re-signed, offers 5 years 30 million...Guard ... Read More

Oh Madden, what pain you have wrought!

Dear Madden,

We have been together for some time now. Our relationship has seen ups and downs too numerous to count. We have spent many long hours together winning super bowls for the Detroit Lions then laughing afterward as we know that will never happen.

However as time has passed, you have lost your luster. Where once you were vibrant and full of promise, now you are but a hollow shell of yourself. It pains me more than anything to say so, but I can not give up on you. ... Read More
