EA needs to borrow a lot of ideas from this game as a matter of fact they need to fire all those cats at tiburon. in fact shoe t2 some respect offer their share holders some go money by them out and hire their employees to work on the next madden. im pretty sure they will do a much better job than the crap we have been forced to play. 2k sports makes better sims in my opinion. the only reason i buy madden is because 2k is not making football games anymore. EA is letting true football fans that are gamers down they have taken the true art of the game and turned it to an arcade/sim type game. take notes from nfl 2k5 and step ya game up because that is how a football game is made i just purchased again nfl 2k5 and i must say that the only thing that the game lacks is next gen graphics. the gameplay and presentation are much better than any football game on the market it has basicly everthing. awesome animations great usage of the espn license. just the overall presentation is great. every next gen madden has nothing on this game except graphics.
