I see your point, I really do and I felt that way for years.
...but as I've gotten older and have been playing tournament style Madden since '02 I've grown tired of the same old song and dance by EA. It's disgusting to me to think about their hiring practices as well as their quality control. This is dumb really, they've got the wrong eyes looking at the game before it's launched. I do not think we should defend EA by not telling the general public, all that does is let EA sell more games and not have to address the issue....all of which is wrong.
I could careless how many people know about this, more the merrier, knowledge is power and there is strength in numbers...when will the rest of you grow tired of this?
