Posted January 4th, 2009 at 10:52 am

Retailers have started taking pre-orders for Madden 10 (cringing writing that) which has brought about the potential release date for the game being Tuesday August 11th. While this isn’t confirmed it does seem to be the likely. The second Tuesday in August has been the date for Madden 08 and 07. Prior to those it used to vary between the second or third week of the month. The game will be coming to the 360, PS3, Wii, PSP, DS and PS2.

Update: The game will be released on Friday August 14th

    Improve the draft and scouting process!!!!! It's HORRIBLE right now and has been for years!! The gameplay overall is great IMO. Love the roster updates. Bring in legit online leagues similar to NCAA CFB 09!!

    When it 1st came out yall all liked it and said it was the best ever. Great graphics and gamplay now because you played everyday for 6 months you are bored of it…hmmmm I wonder why? Maybe if you took a break and not play 24/7 for a 6 months you wouldn't be so bored. Go outside and get a life then come back. You always come back anyway because my product is soooooooooooo gooood!

      I used to love Madden until they started watering down the game. What happenend to being able to control how you wanted the DB to play whether it was inside or outside position. You could also have your DB to lock up man all over the field if you wanted. They also use to allow you to set up your players in different situation before the game started so you could have your special situation players in on certain formations. I rented the game last year and couldn't get over watered down gameplay lack of control the inability for the Superstar players to make superstar plays. I was loyal to EA but the only must have EA sports game I have to have is NCAA 10 and I'm starting to wonder about that. I hope this years version of Madden is better.

    actual 3d crowd, with 3d cut scenes with crowd celebration

    Referees and Chain Crews

    Moving jerseys

    FULL ESPN BROADCAST with scoreboards and everything (2k did it back when they had the espn license, so EA has no excuse!!)

    Jumbotrons with video from the field (get rid of the stupid 3d overlay things)

    More real grass (call of duty style) so when players step on it it gets crushed.

    FULL HD 1080P!! not just upconverted 720!!

    this game is an insult to my 72" samsung 1080p TV!!

    Also, less robotic player movements. its funny how the offensive line gets set up synchronized every play. the players need to have more human movements.

    Running animations need to be more human looking. Players wobble around when they run, they don't just run with their hands going up and down like robots. Madden needs to go back and start fresh and redo all of the animations.

    • Josh

      ur like me

    • keith

      Yes, someone else that understands how dumb the running animations look. Runners look like they have a stick up their butts and they don't lean right. I know EA tried to fix this in 09, but they didn't get it right. Look at 09 for the xbox. players move realistically and it makes a huge differerce in gameplay. you shouldn't have to do a juke move every time. you ought to be able to just out run your tackler to the corner on a pitch or toss and turn up field. Hope to God they make another xbox original version for 2010, i already played the demo for ncaa 10 and this running robot animation is still as retarded as ever. who works for ea anyhow? do you need to hire me to do some quality control? would your project manager even listen to such a thing if it meant having to refocus his project workplan?

    I think that they should inprove on the frachise mode where the player progression during the season like the old madden. Like if the player is getting old there rating should drop according to their position. For Example like how Brian Urlacher speed would drop the older he get. They should have the training camp drills because that was much better.

    • Giants not boys

      dude… they should improve superstar mode it gets a little more awsome by the year but its time they turn it up a mile and make it completley awsome.

    I have said it for a couple years now, but this year I am sticking to my guns. Unless there is a radical change in player movement/momentum I will not get the game. It's a fun arcade game of football, but human beings can't do most of the things you see in Madden. I know I read a comment that they tried to slow the game down to realistic speeds and people hated it, but I am looking for realism.

    EA has been holding us hostage with this bull chit for years now. and this is the last straw..if Madden 10 does not show MARKED improvement in ALL areas(Franchise specifically, although Superstar needs rebuffing) That would be the last football game related to EA I am ever going to get.

    Biggest thing i want to see is presentation/commentary! The commentary is so boooooorrrrrrrriiiiiiinnnnnng it puts me to sleep at times. Hell, NCAA Football 09 has better commentary than Madden.

    Things I want to see in the next iteration of Madden:

    1) User created playbooks
    2) Classic teams (ala Madden 93)
    3) All uniforms ever worn and done accurately
    4) Classic stadiums
    5) Changing weather conditions during the game
    6) Return of dynamic lighting
    7) In-game highlights from around the league 8) Okay, I give….refs and chain gangs
    9) Multiple play-by-play commentators (include MNF crew)…
    10) Fix uniform issues (i.e. Pitt's single digit number placement on helmets; add blue ID tape to Cowboys' helmets, etc.)

    Overall, I have had a lot of fun with Madden 09.

    • Shoe

      The sad thing is, some of those were in former maddens, but they never seem to stay in place. I remember just a few years ago I was running my own plays (granted the old playmaking system didn't allow for anything too fun or creative) , and seeing score updates from around the league, which isn't much, but it at least added to the realism. And I think they had tons of classic teams and uniforms available to use.

      Please fix superstar mode as well, or abolish it. I personally think that is one of the most boring and poorly put together aspects in the game. I can barely get through half a season of that garbage.

      • Sammy

        Dude, seeing scores around the league, now that I realize it, was actually pretty way damn cool.
