It's incredibly frustrating. So much so, actually, that I deleted the patch again and shelved the game until it's fixed. Fortunately for me, I work at an electronics store I just picked up NHL 11 off the shelf to hold me over until I can actually play the copy of Madden that I paid $60 for.

I have the same problem and it bites. I also have nhl 11 and played that but I want to finish my season in Madden.

Am I the only one that actually prefers the new 1.02 patch??....I think it improves the game somewhat. It definitely feels more responsive. Very Slow before the patch felt very sluggish, now it feels good. I might be imagining it, but it feels like there is more realistic seperation in the game now.

Was gone for a few days. Just downloaded the patch, and the game freezes every time during the load screen after I have selected teams.

Not to beat a dead horse, but after browsing about 20 pages or so, Ive noticed a lot of complaints? Are these really with merit, or just complaining to complaints sake?

Ill just say this as I am downloading 1.02... Be happy you got a patch at all. I was one of the morons who gave mlb2k10 a shot and the 360 got 2 good patches that made the game worth the 60 bucks, but ps3 users were tossed to the woodshed due to the show owning in the ps3 market. so those of us who bought the ps3 mlb2k10were left with no fixes. I eventually gave up and returned it for 30 GS credits and used it for red dead instead. So as of May, there were 2 patches for 360 and 0 for ps3.

It makes me satisfied as a customer to know that the madden team said they would give out a patch now, what was on it, and followed through. There will always be problems. But what's worse? A patch that fixes issues and creates a couple more.. Or no patch at all and all customers left in frustrated confusion?

I have to agree with the above. The DL gets way too much pressure on screen plays. AFAIK, the OL is supposed to block for a bit, then go out to block for the screen. In Madden, the OL immediately run out for the screen (and generally aren't aware enough to block effectively once they get there).

I read earlier that the Cowboys have a 50th anniversary patch correct? I noticed tonight that the Vikings have a similar patch, is it in the game?

And to all the PS3 users who can't get your game to boot up - I'm on 360 but I can only suggest or offer advice. Was there a recent PS3 firmware upgrade patch (kinda like a 360 dashboard update)? If so, I might start there and make sure it installed correctly.

I'm thinking that the Madden 1.02 and the latest PS3 firmware might be having problems...

If it's not firmware related at all, and I have no idea that is even close - then I would keep the fight on that issue. I mean if you can't boot your game at all, it is broken, and that's one time where the word is warranted on this forum. If my game wouldn't even load I'd be beyond pissed.
