So did anyone get a 360?

Also when you break the huddle in past games you could hit the “A” button and the players would run up to the line of scrimmage, now the just appear there so essentially you could pick a play and be on the line of scrimmage with 40 seconds left on the play clock. I’m not bashing the game but over all it plays like a first gen, next gen console game (If that makes sense).

That makes me want to stay with regular Xbox. Madden is a flawed game to start with and they didn't need to make it worse.

I don't think they made it worse they just are learining the capabilities of the new system as are the other developers. There are a bunch of other games that really take advantage of the new hardware like Call of Duty and need for speed.

I got mine by paying bits at a time since preordering mine back in may and I'm starting off with Madden and COD 2. both r gorgeous but COD 2 is probably one of the most fun games I've played in a while especially when I tried X-Box Live for the first time and with one other person played capture the flag against 4 people and finished with the game being tied and a 3-1 kills in my favor. I'm definitely dissapointed in some of the stuff they took out of Madden but with what this one has, I can't wait to see what they can put out with a full year to work with on a non-beta system. I'm really looking forward to Full Auto, Gears of War, Blue Dragon, Ninety Nine Nights, and Elder Scrolls. As far as how crazy it is about these things, my boss and I have already been cussed and fussed at from people not able to get one. I've heard about a couple on ebay reaching as high as 6,000+ which just goes to show how stupid some people r and how greedy others r. But then again, tis the season and all.

It's a game console. Eventually the price will drop and then I might pick one up...maybe next summer. Until then I'll just have to be satisfied with having a life.
