    Is there a way to upload the Madden 2010 Updates to my PC or my Storage Device and then to my PS3? I don't play on line but I still want to make the changes.

    Everyone needs to quit complaining about the RB Slant Hot route. This was an exploit and although I used it myself I am glad it is fixed. If you need the RB going out to the flat then find a play and set it as an audible. It still works just as well.

    Did they break blitzing with this patch? I can't apply pressure anymore, the o-linemen from the other side of the field stop whoever is blitzing. I thought the game played better when it first came out, now it's just like 09 where all you have to do is sit in the pocket and wait for an open receiver because there is NO PRESSURE from the defense!

    It was nothing wrong with madden10 when it first came out. As a paying member of xbox live I think that in order to receive the updates and the fuck ups you should have to pay an additional fee. If not the the game stay's as is.

    The game was as fucked up as it has been for years,they have not a damn thing to improve it,other than window dressing.The game is developed by 2nd rate programmers who don't know what the fuck they are doing,and that is obvious with any game they develope.

    Way to go EA for destroying the best gm ever. Why didn't you guys care to mention that the left trigger pass has been completely removed from the gm! So now wide open receivers can't catch the ball in open space without being led into coverage! Every pass goes directly to a defender even though your receiver has 15 yards of space from the nearest defender! THAT SUCKS! And now on hot routes the RB's come out of the back field jogging into their route while you get sacked on plays that the RB used to be wide open. None of these patches helped the gm except maybe the holding penalties on kickoff!

    It did some thing,THE PATCH BROKE MY F*CKING GAME!!!

    - my play books reverted back to team specific,and I can't do sh*t about it
    - game options won't stay where I put them
    - custom settings are wiped out

    This happened after 5 or 6 games,just started 3d pre season game in 4th year of franchise,now I have a nice $60 coaster.

    The new madden 10 patch changed allot and Fucked up the whole game. For once I am disappointed at what are who ever it is that is responsible for all of this. Seven minutes of game play, come on people whats up with that. Thats what the two minute practice drill is for. Get in the lab and work on your game. And put the game speed back to what the fuck it was...
  • ravens
    2 weeks for a shitty update? Fuck this game
  • jon

    TOO MANY FUMBLES. I don't know why, But turning down the tackle system forces too many fumbles. I fumbled 5 times.
  • hint
    dont turn down the tackle system
  • mr t
    patch is fine u kiddin me wake up its a complete joke
  • Andy
    The new patch is fine. Played several games last night, and everything is as it should be. Complainers about the out of bounds clock really should know the NFL's rules before playing the game. Nice job EA as usual. Madden 10 is the best of the series so far.
  • Rob
    and i agree with you on that
  • hookem
    Should I adjust already existing sliders... I finally tuned them... Please let me know!!!!!!!!!!!
  • mr t
    THIS PACTH IS BOLLOX! HB's still mow through 5-6 guys like they don't exsist and the special teams returning is a f'n joke.

    THIS GAME IS SHIT EA... WITH A CAPITAL SH AND IT!
  • WOW! son of a patch!
    man damn the clock running, if your going to follow the real rules... why are quarterbacks
    throwing incomplete passes behind them on screens and its not a fumble?///...
    stop listening to people who actually play in broadcast view! !!
    how can i remove it,? the toe drag is sweet but the rest
  • chitty
    man they shouldnt have took away 5min quarters its long enough without the 7 min quarters im pissed bout this
  • Eifel
    Anybody know what the last madden 10 trophiy is. Im talking about the ??? trophy. Thats all I am missing from the AFL pack. thanks
  • You have to return a field goal for a touchdown with afl presentation on
  • Patch looks promising so far!
  • Pasta
    when the roster updates come out will you be posting the rating changes online
  • Dominic
    Hey does anyone know why the lime green Jerseys for the Seahawks isn't in the game or is that just my game?
  • BOSSOG20
    i believe the RB coverage to the flats is supposedly getting fixed in the 2nd patch right? Because I'm still having the same success. My Running back is still catching the ball 30 times for 250 plus yards per game. Also had two plays where the cpu player did not attempt to drag or keep two feet in bounds when catching the ball near the sideline... if someone knows more please let me know whats up.
  • optimusp76

    Good shit ea finnaly the little money play my frind loves to do on me does not work fucking little wild cat shit and his other across the middle shit gets shut down with the improved man coverage
  • JeSTeR
    Everyone crying about the RB hotroute are the EXACT REASON they changed it, I'm guessing. I mean, it's one thing when you've got some slow LB on Reggie Bush, but when some scrub FB can outrun your nickelback to the sideline on that play, SOMETHING had to be done.

    the 7 minute quarters are terrible!! switch back to 5
  • Alec
    My GAMERTAG is ABOMB320. I will officially stop playing starting today 9/24/2009 and will even sell my game if necessary unless this hot route situation is not changed back to the way it was. The running back should be able to shoot right towards the sidleine like before at an angle that he is given space. Why oh why was this changed?! PLEASE RESPOND ANYONE! I want to play again but will not until this is fixed.
  • James
    agree it's not an offensive problem it's a defensive flaw! A check down or swing pass to the running back should not work every single play! It's rather ridiculous! I want to know who in the hell is testing these games before they hit shelves or a demo is dropped? I figured this ish out in the 1st hr i played the game. How this wasn't delivered to Ian before the demo dropped beats me.
  • Big Baller 23
    i hope u stop playing ur weak throwing to ur RB every play
  • Man Ram55
    so your whole offense revolves around throwing to RB every play? good i hope u stop playing cuz ur a pussy. learn to throw downfield
  • you probably just suck if you count too much on that play.. their are many plays to counter the blitzes
