Combat. Loved how the tank actually had the rumble. Dang it, you've got me de-railing the thread again! LOL! I actually loved Warlords. Had the curve down to a science. Man, been playing these games far too long. Maybe ya'll are right. Maybe I need to go into Gamer's Annon. "Hi I'm Brian and I'm an addict...." It's sad, I get up at 3:30AM just to play so I don't neglect my kids. "put down the controller......."

I hear what you are saying, but to get angry other this stuff. Just seems a little pointless. If people get angry over a video game then video games are probably not for them.

There's an app out there that slows down how your CPU executes old dos apps. You may need to track that down as well.

Now see, you say attack, and personal attacks should never be tolerated. But, when your company has an exclusive license and the product is sub par for many years, then it is perfectly legit for customers to voice there displeasure over the game and there displeasure over not having any alternate choices. That just has to be common sense. That's legit, just don't make personal attacks against individuals. That's crossing way over the line and should never happen, and it did.

Again if you're that upset hit the NFL up. They are the owners of that fiasco.

Guys, let's get back to the thread topic please.

Thanks.

Now this here is exactly the attitude people face. If you criticize the game for being sub par you are a 2K fan boy. Madden didn't stand a chance. Never mind that we are what, 7 years into a new gen, and the game still hasn't reached where it was with the prev gen. I'm smart enough to see it, and guess what, I never owned NFL2k. They never made it for the PC, so I always got madden instead. Then EA took Madden away from PC'ers. Red Dead Redemption not being on the PC finally forced me to go out and get a console, and Madden STILL hadn't gotten back to where it was WELL over half a decade ago. That's just the truth. Has nothing to do with whether madden was given a chance or not. EA/TIB didn't deliver.
