Madden NFL 10 Blog: 2nd Title Update Preliminary Details

[greenegt]

It's been a loooong wait, but I'm looking forward to starting my franchise when patch 2 drops. Madden is already solid as is, but I wanted to wait for these last few fixes.

Well then sir, you don't hate the game do you? That was my point.

There's a group of people who hate just about everything about this game (or at least that's what I'm lead to believe). For those people, the patch is not going to change their mind. So why should those people bellyache about how long the patch is taking if they've already made their mind up about this game?

3rd party is a relative term, meaning outside of your group. To EA, Microsoft testing is a 3rd party. To Microsoft, EA is a 3rd party developer.

Bottom line is, if Ian said its in the hands of the 3rd party, that is the final step to getting out to us.
So I would put my money on a before Thanksgiving patch update!

Maybe he is Eric Mangini. And in his world, everyone's a pony... and they all eat rainbows!... AND POOP BUTTERFLIES!

I thought that was Bill Belichick.

He poops the most butterflies while attempting 4th down conversions.
