***I am buying the game on Tuesday*** but...
EA gets what they deserve. I am not harping on you all that bought into season pass but the quality of EA titles don't deserve the me spending more $$ to get it early.
EA and Madden certainly hasn't earned the respect of the hardcore community and I believe you are seeing this in the sales figures.
I am encouraged by the reviews on this site I am seeing on M12 but after the insane oversights of bugs on NCAA12, they'll get my $39 and we'll see where things go in regards to Season Pass if they string together a few good years together.

For all of those who are saying because you aren't playing online, that it doesn't count towards sales numbers, I have to correct that.
They know exactly how many people downloaded it and even if you are playing offline, they can still tell you are playing b/c you are connected to XBL/PSN. They always talk about how no one plays online franchise for example. They collect data from offline games, like Ian did last year with his numbers about how many people were using Gameflow, even offline.

The EA sports season ticket is not for Madden i'm sure they will make their mark with Soccer and Hockey...
I bought it but Madden wasn't the primary reason. It added to the decision but the fact I get FIFA 3 days earlier and save 20% on their DLC added into it. I still think $25 is too much and think it should be been marked at the $15 mark.
Would be nice if they added bonus items as the year goes by.

As a result of the two tin cans on a string that AT&T mockingly refers to as it's "high speed internet service", it literally took me all night to download M12. Nevertheless, I'm glad I signed up for the Season Ticket. I have some friends over to watch tonight's Texans game, and we've been having a blast. The cheap SOB's even paid for the pizza and beer for a change ( 
), so as far as I'm concerned the ST has paid for itself.

I normally don't buy Madden, but I am a huge NHL and FIFA fan as well as NCAA. I got the season pass mainly to get on NHL and FIFA early to get going on my OTP player to get him better. I have been playing Madden a ton though, and I am even tempted to pick the game up after this trial.
For me I figure it is cheaper than renting the games at blockbuster, or getting a gamefly account for the 4 or 5 months that EA releases games just to try them out. It's about 5 dollars a game for NCAA, Madden, NHL, FIFA, and Tiger Woods. Pretty good deal especially if someone buys DLC later on.

Do you think David Rutter made that video on his spare time for free? Did he film, edit it and put that together himself? Did that webpage just appear without cost? Do you think the advertising inclusions in the Madden and NHL demos just randomly appeared without any work needing to be done?
Again, C'MON MAN.
edit* wrong link, can't seem to find the one David Rutter did where he explained it. Regardless, that's yet a second video about the mode. Don't tell me they didn't market it. These things don't just appear for free.

There's plenty of costs involved here that you aren't seeing. At the suggested income of 162K of the person I initially quoted, I wouldn't be surprised for a second if that came at a loss to EA.
Anyone who's worked in a corporate environment with a project of that scope would understand that.
