VSN isn't one of those. It's a fairly mature group. It's just jadded old MMers though:P

It's one, maybe 2 guys. Most of that site are good people.

if grown men spend their grown money on a NFL game, they have a right to question the game, because most old school cats dont cheat! Most older guys know X's and Os not cheats. and im not talking about guys who pee sitting down im talking about old guys who would take some one behind the wood shed if they were talking noise, not these powder puff young guys who think sim means going for it on 4th down and having your qb run around like they were playing BLitz for 25 cents at the arcade.

Dont get mad at the old school guys who want a good game. Some of you haven't even played real football, most of you stay at home and listen to your i pods and stay on your computers. when was the last time you played throw up tackle or street football. If any of you know football 101 you would question every madden game that has come out because its not real football. People work hard for their money and they should get the best football game out. So dont get mad or upset if some guys have problems with the game. Maybe you should step back and learn for guys who dont have to worry about being in a time were "all kids win" when you fell of your bike you didnt have mommy kiss it and make it feel better. We just have to wait and see with our own two eyes. but you young kids need to listen to guys who know what football is and not hide behind your computers and your words. knowing you wouldnt do it in real life. keep it 100 or go home.

Hi guys,

Thanks for representing the OS community at EA’s Community Day and then taking the time to share your thoughts and experiences with all of us. I’m sure you represented those of us who love football and frequent the OS forums in the best of light. Hopefully this August we all will be playing the game we’ve dreamed of since we bought our first computers. I know there is much that you can’t talk about but as a “coach mode” player I’m wondering if there was anything you observed in Madden 10 that you feel will compensate us for the loss of Head Coach. Also, I don’t know if you had a chance to play full games against the CPU but could you give us a feel for the play calling AI. Specifically, does the new “adaptive AI” extend to play calling or does each game basically feel the same? Will teams have distinct playing styles and will coaches have personalities? Did teams seem to play to their strengths and look to exploit your weaknesses or did it feel like previous Maddens where, all too often, it felt like the play the CPU called was selected specifically to counter the play you just called? Head Coach 09 tried to make strides in this direction but in the end was limited by the existing Madden framework.

Thanks again!
