    I know Madden 11 is on it's last legs for most with 12 around the corner but something still pisses me off about it. Well, a lot of things do but this thing really grinds my gears. It's the stupid Extra Point "highlight" show. And I emphasize highlight for it's complete lack of them. Every time you boot the show up Fran Charles says "Let's check out some HIGHLIGHTS and stats from this weeks games." But are there any actual highlights? Fuck no. Just scoreboards. If there were any highlights it would actually be a cool feature.

    Fucking half assed EA bullshit. Quite frankly I think it's false advertisement.

      Is $225 good for a refurbished ps3 off ebay?

        They're $25 more brand new. Save the money up and get one new.

            It's $250 on Amazon, too. Considering they don't charge tax in most states, it'll wind up being cheaper. Make sure you're looking at the 160GB because the 320GB is $299. Sony did a universal $50 price drop today but the last time I checked, Amazon had it updated.

              The price drop just happened today. Amazon may not have updated their prices yet.

              Edit: Just checked and it is $249 on Amazon. It's only the 160GB though. Boo.

                                that NFL 2K shit is amazing.....wtf? You know how awesome 2K would be by now if they were around making a game each year. EA is really smart because if they didnt get the license they would be the ways of NBA by now.
