Its funny...

Just about every time I have praised Madden and EA for the work theyve done or defended them, I got called a fanboy or people said I was kissing EA's backside.

And every time I criticized them, I get people like you saying "stop crying" or labeling me as a *****.

Thats why people like you make this board lame. Because people cant even give their honest opinion of the game, good or bad, without someone like you throwing a hissy fit about it.

And you can "laugh at me" all you want. I dont really put too much stock in the opinion of a guy who spends most of his life online talking about video game football.

Once you open the channel of communication, and people get over the "new toy" effect that it caused, empowerment kicked in.

Quoted for truth.

Such is the case as we get closer to release. I don't think I want to be near this forum from about August 14-20th.

It's amazing how people get their undies in a bundle over the littlest pic or tidbit. No way some of these people could've survived pre-internet and only getting their info from EGM, GamePro, or any of the ol' gaming mags.

We got it good over here man...At least on Madden we don't have the problem of half of the league's rosters are from last year or teams not having any rookies.

He even made a point to say they are working on the FOUNDATION first. So not to expect major changes, just simple fine tunings. But hey keep on crying guys...............

I completely agree.

We get new information about the game and %90 of the posts in this thread are whining about "not getting enough information."

It's like watching ESPN and wanting the highlights of a game but instead all you get is Brett Favre, Plaxico Burress, Stallworth, Sammy Sosa on Steroids, and a bunch of other crap.............instead of the highlights and scores. It's like MTV (music televisions)......with NO MUSIC. I don't understand it. It's a video game. The internet is one of the greatest inventions of all-time and yet it seems to be one of the most culturally destructive tools of all-time. Look, now I'm getting off-topic replying to this stuff.

Why not talk about the game? That's what we're all here for.

It's a privelage to get this kind of information. Not a right. EA doesn't have to do any of this for us, but they CHOOSE TO. Be thankfull for ANY INFORMATION YOU GET!

I would still like to know something about the tweaks done to imported draft classes.

Im probably wrong per usual, but I wasnt aware that you could import draft classes into 10. I thought it was all the hand-crafted draft class business.
