I just pointed out my opinion on my beloved publisher/game creator.
Umm... yeah. I was just pointing out that it just happens that the best sellers of the two biggest plublishers in the world just happen to be games they barely update.

Your willing to pay 50$ every 10-14 months for the switching of names/players/ and teams. I really don't get people who buy the SAME damn game with little tweaks/tunes every damn year. [/b]
Um, wtf?

I was talking about online capibilities. I like to have all my sports games online because you can download roster updates. I didn't say "updated rosters are the only reason I'm buying the game"

Here are my main reasons:

1) The game improves every year. If it didn't improve, I wouldn't buy it, but Madden hasn't had one year of no improvement ever.

2) I love football

3) On my old Madden franchises I get a good 15-20 years into them, so the new Madden game is a fresh start for me to waste a mindless amount of time on.

4) Some years there are major changes to the teams that make the older version of the game obsolete. New uniforms, and new teams all-together. Also there are some changes to the way the schedule is set up, or changes to divisions. There is just some stuff you can't get in an older version of the game.

Do you know that EA is basicly ripping you off... things like this should be simply patched up if go online with the game... But with EA it doesn't work like this. When Madden 2005 comes out the Madden 2004 srevers will be terminated and you're going have to shell out another 50$ for a damn roster update.
I see your point, on the GCN and Xbox versions, because you can't download crap. But on Madden (2002) you can download updated rosters for the year.

Also, how the hell are you gonna patch up huge changes to the game (See reason #4) on a Console? Ps2 and GCN don't have HD's, so that throws that possibility out for at least two versions.
