agreed. I love how Madden is the only game that needs a patch, or is wrong for patching, or shouldn't need a patch, or this or that.....

People really need to expand their horizons and visit some of the other forums here on OS and see that those games have the same exact type of posts as what people are posting here. Hell, MLB The Show, which is highly regarded on these forums, had people that deemed the game unplayable because the Cubs didn't have enough home games that started in the afternoon during franchise mode. Others deemed it unplayable because the 60-day DL doesn't function properly. Others because of comeback AI, others because of varying reasons. All of those people were waiting on a patch to start their franchise.

Every sports game will have something, according to the people who play that game, that will be deemed a game killer and make the game unplayable until after a patch.

Seems to be on par with Madden's uniform issues. If FSX was like Madden, the planes would fly backwards, wind would effect your plane the opposite way, and a Cessna 172 would fly like an F-22.

If the things wrong with the Show were Madden's only problems people here would be ecstatic. As it stands now, Madden has all of the listed problems from the Show along with fundamental gameplay flaws that effect every facet of the game.

First time I have genuinely laughed at another poster. Well done.

Countryboy- you need to look outside the box and realize that each person is an individual and desires different things from these games. I never understand the people who are obsessed with uniforms being 100% lifelike, but I am not happy with franchise mode stats. I never play online and never play against other people, so I don't care if there are money plays or cheesers. Everyone is different and if you are happy with the game, that means that whatever things are important to you, the game got right.

Ummm....ok.....you completely missed the point of my post... I never said anything or even hinted at the idea that everyone should be happy with how the game is nor the idea that people's criticisms are invalid. Not sure how you get that out of what I said.

And I have issues with the game as well that I'm hoping are fixed via the patch, most notably the franchise stats. So there are things that I look for that the game didn't get right.

I just don't get some of the posts/criticisms here that allude to the idea that patching a game is somehow a Madden only thing. Visit any of the other forums and you'll see the same exact thing going on in those forums as you do here. People finding game-killers, people saying this needs to be patched or that, and people saying shut up and play because the game is good.

Patches, game-killers, bugs/glitches, etc...are hardly a Madden only idea.
