Mysterious Appearance of Madden 10 DLC

Last Thursday I mentioned the likelihood of AFL Legacy jerseys being included in DLC or an upcoming patch for Madden 10. The very next day a DLC pack featuring Legacy jerseys and themed presentation elements appeared on the Euro PSN store. The DLC pack is listed as being free and includes 16 jerseys and special presentation for those respective games in franchise mode. An image of the description was captured and posted on the Operation Sports forum and can be seen here.

Apparently the DLC is not actually working properly and may just be an empty download. This is likely an indication of a mistake having been made and the listing going out before the DLC was ready. Considering the circumstances with it not having been announced or promoted at all that would make sense.

I’ve attempted to get comment on the issue but thus far have not received a response. EA may not be prepared to make it official that the DLC is on the way. Thanks to this we do know what the DLC will entail and that it will be free. It appears as though it’ll be a really nice value addition to the game.

The original AFL eight are comprised of the Dallas Texans (Chiefs), Houston Oilers (Titans), Boston Patriots (New England), Buffalo Bills, New York Titans (Jets), Denver Broncos, Oakland Raiders, and Los Angeles Chargers (San Diego).

    The Houston Oilers is for the Titans not the Texans.

    Good, I'm glad to see that they are putting them in earlier rather than later. We are already seeing tons of white Bills AFL jerseys around Rochester where I live and there's a rumor that they will be our full-time jerseys as soon as next year. I love the Bills classic look!

      I hear from Bills fans every year for the last few that the "throw back" alternate is going to become full time. I would like to see it, but not sure if it will happen.

    I like this. I was wondering why the Jerseys the Titans and Bills wore in the Hall of fame game weren't in the game.

    I know the NFL has left the Dolphins off the list of former AFL teams that can wear their old jerseys, but will Madden have them in the game?

    I'm very glad to see this. I'm still surprised that the AFL package wasn't included out of the wrapper, but maybe it's just too big of a presentation to put on the disc. Who knows. I'm hopeful that in the future, game companies will have a wide variety of uniforms, stadiums, etc. available and maybe dlc is the best way to accomplish this. Of course I'm also hopeful that this will be provided to consumers at little or no cost. EA Sports needs to know that charging customers anything more than a couple of dollars extra for features after charging them $59.99 for a game is unacceptable.

    i was hoping that the legacy jerseys would be included when i saw the hall of fame game. the "luv ya blue" oilers jerseys looked great.

    If you download it, do you have to start a new franchise for the changes to take effect?

    Kinda worth the wait if they put a special presentation in for franchise afl games in addition to the unis. Hopefully it stays free. Out of town now but looking forward to this and regular season upon return.

    I downloaded the pack too… thing is, I don't know what jerseys were already in the game for those teams. The NY Titans and 1960's Bills are there, but I don't know if they were already in or not. Can anyone verify?

      hey,

      the Broncos throwbacks are not the AFL Legacies they will wear. The bills will wear home & road AFL's. The Titans thowbacks were already in. Still isn't working.
