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).

please help, non of my franchise DLC works after the latest madden 10 update for 360. Everytime i remove the update, the DLC functions properly. I've deleted, redownloaded over and over again. After searching the net, I only found one person with the same issue in a forum and no one answered him. I purchased this crap and i'll be damned if I have to revert to the even buggier launch version just to use it.

I just hope the uniforms are accurate....

Love it. Was hoping to see some Dallas Texans jerseys in here, was disappointed when I didn't. Happy to hear about this!

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.

Attaboy21

wow, this is the nr 1 thread where almost half of the comments are insulting... pretty dumb

sean

i was confused as to why the raiders have alternate silver jerseys but not the AFL throwbacks

Geezy

so what about them fixing the Charger newer powder blue jersey?

EvanChelio

I got it and they work i think but ima post a vid on my youtube site of the same name for those who want to see it however i dont see the Dallas Texans (Kansas City Chiefs) Throwbacks???

thaSLAB

I didn't see those either. Not under KC anyway, that's why I wasn't sure if they worked.

Oddyob

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.

hey Pasta i wonder when will the next roster update will be! thanx mann!

pastapadre

Probably in the couple days leading up to the opener. So I'm expecting it next week.

richmondn96

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

ferris

yea i was wondering the same thing. Pasta?

turf

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.

thatguy

exactly, the oiler uniform from that time kicks arse!!!

Chris

Not exactly "Luv Ya Blue" uniforms, but they are a great look back.

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.

Oddyob

Sweet. Dwlnding as soon as I can.

Mike

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?

timothy

r00tabaga, i love you

i wann put it in your ass

united

why engage these rooks? you should be above them. your just as bad when you play their game.

Skihawks

I don;t know what Pasta is talking of. I downloaded the jerseys this morning

thatguy

are you telling the truth ski??

r00tabaga

I have not been home to check but Skihawks has been around here a while and has no reason to fib.

thatguy

apparently he did.

Skihawks

I am just messing....I wish I had the new jerseys...I would think by opening weekend...

Josh

I personally couldn't care less about AFL DLC or jerseys. When are they gonna patch some of the issues with the gameplay?

Alex shery

Stop writing FIRST, are we in daycare here ? God you're a homo( not in the gay way)

JiMMz

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.

r00tabaga

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!

Borquette

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.

r00tabaga

Nobody round here likes their current ones. Either go back to the "Kelly Years" or the "Baby Blues"!

EARoxyesthatisanX

Free or not, I will get this for sure!

jo momma

im pretty damn sure the houston oilers were the predecessor's of the titans....hall of fame game?

Jket

I thought that they already had throwback jerseys in the game.

r00tabaga

Not all of the AFL road/home were available.
