One thing is sure. The pressure is on. The scruitiny under which this game will find itself will be massive in light of the NCAA hiccups.

Madden was a 100% disaster on next gen last year and NCAA has been hit and miss this year.

I hope to God unqualified testers are not used this year in Madden. EA seems to lack there.

It doesnt matter. If Madden is crap this year it will still sell a ton of copies and then next year everyone will be all excited by some new feature and be spouting that this will be the year EA delivers.

Unless Madden 09 has a popup warning "insertNfl 2K5 for a real football experience" before starting it won't be anything to talk about.

(Blue in the face). I am not waiting for August, more like mid October when the 'highly anticipated patch' hits Xbox Live, of course after it's MS approved

If madden is any worse than NCAA i will seriously doubt everything i know about life. NCAA has so many problems bugs issues etc logically Madden can't be any worse.

Just to throw that out there. Now how do you feel about Madden being better?

Interesting, just read a similar article off of Google news. Posted a new thread
in the NCAA forum. While the Dev's are working labouring to resolve NCAA 09,
this take from EA's CEO gives some perspective.
