Madden...fudged.
« on: September 10, 2001, 08:15:10 AM »
This is an email from my brother about Madden 2002. He just got a PS2 and GT3, he loves football and most of the madden games.

"Madden\'s very cool. But the rosters aren\'t exactly accurate. I knew it came out oo soon! I was wondering how it could be released before the final cuts were made on the rosters in real life. Now I know....they fudged it. The Patriots backup quarterback isn\'t even on the teams roster in Madden! Little things like that and players who were cut in real life are still on the team. Oh well. THe game play and graphics are still very good. But I want to wrte them a letter telling them that fans would be willing to wait an extra two weeks for accuracy. Then they could release the game when the real season starts. That\'s how they USED TO DO IT! Not anymore. Money-grubbing-bastards!"

I think he it totally right. Why do you think they do that? What a pain. Is there any way to update the roster, etc?


What do you think?

I totally agree with your brother. I don\'t know why they do that cause right now there\'s not 2 much competition on the PS2 with football games, maybe on PC there is and one week means lot\'s of $$$ for EA getting all the gamers that like football but no as much as we do and don\'t care about the Patriots backup quarterback.

I don\'t think you are going to be able to update the rosters on the PS2 version:(. We will have to wait for Madden 2003 (Maybe EA release it before the Superbowl with the correct rosters of 2002 teams:D)
I just wanna know!.

A: NFL2K2 for DC - online play, updated (and downloadble) rosters, huge franchise mode, new, more realistic gameplay (ask Ddaryl, doesnt even play football games and he said it was awesome sounding)

did I mention it\'s online? Good ole Madden stil can\'t claim that.


Boom! I think I felt that hit up here.

Yes, the best football game out there is NFL2K1 and hopefully in a week it will be NFL2K2. What username you use? I would love to play you some day. Mine is SonicMex.

To bad thats all an opinion, to me Madden is way better than 2k1, all I know is madden 2002 offers more features than any other football game out by a long shot, and I also think madden is way more realistic than 2k1, I knows it opinion but most people feel this way

Most ppl are idiots and they don\'t know real football madden has horrible AI. i MEAN the offense or the defense always reacts the same way when u do the exact same play over and over and over again.

Madden Realistic hahahahahahah there is not such things as pass rush on madden. Madden blows plain and simple.

Most peole as in YOU, your opinion isnt the opinion so dont act like it, and have you even played madden 2002, the AI is really good compared to other games like 2k1, and I dont even know what your talking with pass rush, it had quality pass rush in 2001, let alone 2002

i SEE EA HAS CORRUPTED YOUR MIND. You don\'t know what a real football game is anymore.

But I actually do know, 2k1 was a good game for a while, my friend and I played it a lot, but once madden came 2k1 started collecting dust, especially now that madden 2002 is out, I just hope they added a bunch of new stuff to 2k2 just so it hangs with madden

You are indeed most ppl.

Maybe you should play Madden 2002 - I am by no means an EA Sports lover but they did really well with Madden 2002. The AI has been significantly improved as has the franchise mode.

Here are two favourable reviews of Madden 2002 by reviewers who didn\'t think Madden 2001 was very good (in fact both were massive fans of NFL 2k1).

http://www.sportsreviewers.com/reviews/madden2002ps2/madden2002ps2.htm

http://www.sgn.cc/football/madden_2002/review_ps2.shtml

Both sega/NFL 2K1 whores (self proclaimed in Matt C\'s case) feel that Madden 2002 is the best football game ever.

Now read the preview for NFL2K2 on PS2. It will blow your mind some of the stuff they are putting into it. Stuff that EA should have implemented years ago, if only they had time to shy away from the 5%graphics increase every year.

I can\'t believe i am saying this, but QuDDuS is exactly correct. And Madden has less/same features as NFL2K2.

NFL2K2 has online play though, glorious online play.


my name I use is NeoSega, most likely. I may be Razzy, though. We should set some games up, knowing that Tribal Dragons is pretty much bust. (with a name like Tribal Dragons, it really makes you wonder :))

Good luck with that paycheck Bozco. How much money are you up to now, 20 bucks a referral for EA?
