Madden 10 Request - Don't Ruin Our Televisions

[Valdarez]

After playing APF2K8 for hundreds of hours, the little score bar is now literally burned into my television. APF2K8 had no fade away for the score bar during game play. That little score bar effectively ruined my $3,500 television.

From the screen shots of Madden, it looks like Madden is going back to the score bar as well (good call IMHO), but I have yet to see video that shows the score bar fading away. Please have the score bar fade away immediately after the ball is hiked so players televisions are protected. Even better, provide a way for us to do away with it all together by using a dynamically placed on the field first down marker yardage that shows the score (like we see on Sunday and which appears to be in use in Madden '10 on the Wii).

First Down Marker Example


The ability to toggle the scorebar on/off or to use the dynamically placed 1st down marker would be awesome.

Please, do not ruin your customer's televisions!

I have played over 200 different games now on this TV (XBox, PS2, Wii, XBox 360, PS3) and APF2K8 is the only game to date that has damaged it. Granted, I have played it more than the others, but still, it could have been easily avoided with proper design.

WOW...lol...

So you are saying everyone who has a Television set will experience the same problem as you? Doubt it. And there is always someone who played the game wayyyy longer than you who doesn't have the problem.

They can't cater to 1-2 people.

If it does, I don't know where it's located.
