5. Nas- Nas was one of the first rapper's with street credibility to add a sense of intelligence and consciousness into his rhymes. His feud with Jay-Z was probably the greatest rapper feud in history with Illmatic and Stillmatic being 2 of the best rap albums of all time.

4. Eminem- Eminem was instrumental in ushering hip hop rap into mainstream America. Comparison's to Vanilla Ice went away quickly when word got out....this guy is a legitimate lyricist. Marshall Matters was an instant ... Read More

The number one reason why madden sales are down is simple...... The majority of madden gamers are of African descent and guess which ethnic group has been the most effected by the economy...... EA knows more than you guys think they know. Why else would they change the music from hip hop to mainstream rock. They are repositioning the franchise because their primary market isn't re- upping. Just my thoughts.

First and foremost, I would like to state that I'm a die hard Dallas Cowboys fan. With that said, my super bowl prediction for the upcoming Nfl 2010- 2011 season is the Green Bay Packers vs Miami Dolphins!
Miami will be your 2010 NFL champion.

I'm getting NBA Elite. In my opinion, I believe 2k is over compensating by putting Jordan in a my player mode that was virtually there last year. Also, when you consider you get a free game for trying out their new physics engine and new version of freestyle, it's a no brainer. So who will be joining me on the Elite bandwagon. Intuitive controls vs The Lord of the Rings. Which do you pick....

First and foremost, I'm loving Madden 2011. But if EA is going to have it's first ever repeat since madden 04 and madden 05 they have to perfect, not add or subtract or make slight changes,...But perfect these things.

1. Ratings system- in my humble opinion, this is the most important feature in Madden. It is the system from which franchise mode is built and the system which speaks sim. There is a clear distinction between tier b, tier a, and superstar players in the league. I should ... Read More

Great job Mr Cummings! Madden 2010 was an extremely solid effort and Madden 11 builds upon a great foundation with a good effort. I am fully convinced Madden Armageddon will be the best football game in history, and I will bet that. All EA needs to do I'd fine tune locomotion (too many broken tackles) and perfect the ratings system and you will have one fine football video game experience. Moving forward I think the biggest addition in Madden Armageddon (2012) should be foot locomotion ( you should ... Read More

Do you prefer your sports games to play like they are viewed on tv or play like they would play if you were actually playing the sport. For example one basketball game last year played like it would feel if you were on the court playing and one played like it would feel from a person watching the sport on tv. Which do you prefer........

NBA Jam Wii has been a day one purchase for me ever since it's announcement last spring. Now don't get me wrong I would have loved the opportunity to game against my online buddies across PSN , but there was something awesome about exposing this title to casual gamers on wii as well as my sons and nephews.

But then it happened.... I have never embraced the 2k series of basketball titles preferring the straight forward approach of the Live series. But when sega announced they were ... Read More

I told a good buddy of mine that although Madden is progressing at a pretty swift pace, if he wants to get the true Madden experience, he should skip this year and re up for Madden Armageddon.

*Ian Cummings and company would have had 3 years to implement their vision. The true gauge for gamers would be playing Madden Favre (2009) and comparing it to Madden Romo (2012).

*The economy would be a tad more stable, allowing EA to invest more money into an established franchise ... Read More

Just finished playing the Madden Demo and wanted to touch on the upside of the gameplay.

Locomotion- love it and suspect this will add a whole new level of realism to the ratings system. For example Brandon Marshall will break more tackles than Teddy Ginny. Felix jones will cut quicker than Brandon Jacobs.

Dpad shifts- shakes things up and evens the playing field through simplifying adjustments. Also, it's more realistic because in the league you're limited to the ... Read More

Quick question, are we as gamers sabotaging the annual ecstasy, which is madden football by constantly nit picking? If you ask any Madden player, who plays the game and does not visit or know the first thing about Operation Sports, how do they feel about the game? They all light up with glee. In my opinion my love for Madden has been stolen by the people who are on a crusade to expose Madden for the same game, year in and out. Well I'm officially fed up and I'm officially replugging myself back ... Read More
