You also really need to not top post. It messes up the flow of the thread
and is considered bad newsgroup etiquette.

I was saying that I found it disappointing. Yes yes yes Madden and NCAA

so different.

First of all, it's a football game. Of course it's going to suck.

Second of all, it's EA. Their middle NAME is "sucks" E "sucks" A. The
only two games in the last four years that they've managed to put out
that have been half way decent are the Burnout games, which they bought
from Acclaim, and which, with Burnout 4 Revenge, is so far, still a
good series, and Battlefield 1942, which DICE pretty much handed to
them on a silver platter. And that's pretty much it, and apart from the
original BF1942 that series pretty much sucks balls now too.

EA doesn't have an original bone in it's entire, snakey, scaley,
perverted body. They buy up franchises and studios, assimilate them
into the collective, or chew them up and then spit them out. The list
of defunct "former EA studios" is about as long as the list of current
studios, and includes some of the best game studios (when they were
independent of E "borg" A) in gaming. Bullfrog. RIP. Origin Systems.
RIP. Westwood. RIP. EA doesn't take risks. They "sell product". If
they can't make it (and they can't) they buy it, then sell it, and
screw over whoever invented it.

When they bought off the rights to own football in gaming, what did you
expect would happen? Great new gameplay options generated as a result
of the desperate competition? Amazing new visusals to totally WOW you?
Because if you thought that, you were kidding yourself.

EA bought football so they wouldn't have to spend money innovating.
They bought it so they could sell you a roster update every year and
you'd have no choice but buy it since there wouldn't be an alternative.
