Uh, EA doesn't give one damn about the fuel lol. This is just a case of doing it for publicity, which it's getting. I would imagine it's along the lines of "the mercs stole the venezuelan gas" and here it is free.

And yes I didn't read the article.

lmao oh that got me... I dunno, for some reason I don't hate Xbox as much anymore. Funny things like this just make me remember I'm a gamer first, console-supporter second.

The only way I'd get an Xbox is if I was paid for the electricity costs, as well as the privilege of being able to be played on my TV. Just give the things away already, there's no reason to buy one!

I've got 2 Dualshocks but sometimes I'm not the first to grab one lol. And I fly a lot, so I notice it when I don't have a Dualshock in my hand easily. It really does a great job.

I still say that Warhawk has been to the PS3 what Socom 2 was to the PS2. Yet it's even more underrated and not talked about. This is what multiplayer gaming is really all about!

Well if it costs less to download a game than to buy it (ie. Warhawk), are you really going to pay an extra 20 bucks for the hardware? It might be faster than downloading though.

I just prefer paying nothing for a service that gives me all I really want: gaming. What was my monthly bill this month? Oh, that's right, 0. Something M$ users never see.

I prefer supporting a company that doesn't feel the need to charge me through the nose, rather than enable a company that does. By supporting M$, you're just keeping the cycle going. So it really doesn't matter which system has the better games, because even if the PS3 actually didn't have better games, ...

"For me any gaming genre is casual, don't get it, why to divide games into "casual" and "hardcore"...that's something MSFT and SONY made up to not compete against the Wii regarding sales figures."

No it's not. It's something gamers made up and rightfully so. Most gamers consider it really a battle between the 360 and PS3. Most of us posting on here don't care for the Wii; at least, the numbers here are disproportionate compared to the general po...

Comeon, it was just probably a few of employees at EA that had the oversight on this. Wasn't like Peter Moore was the one that decided the headlines here. This is just a case of trying to rip EA for the sake of ripping EA.

Besides, it should be Farve. I really don't know how "FAVre" translates into the sound "Farve" anyway :D

I bought every Madden from 2003-2007. I didn't buy 2008 because it was a step in the wrong direction and 30fps on the PS3 was simply unacceptable, as I felt snubbed by EA.

I will most likely be picking up this game based on the way the game felt in the demo and the reviews being positive. It felt close enough to the PS2 versions control wise, and finally looked Next-Gen graphic wise. That's what I was waiting for.

Madden doesn't need to change as much as every...

Apparently fanboys also hand out awards. If Halo = innovation... I don't even know what to say. This is 2008 right? Hmm maybe my time machine is broken.

I doubt it. Will the average person even know that the previous unit was 20GB?

He doesn't have to have the system to bash it. Maybe the reason he doesn't have it is because he doesn't like what it has to offer? You don't need to have something to know you don't want it. The Wii does not offer the same type of games that core gamers want. It just doesn't. People talk about Mario, Zelda, Metroid, etc... but core gamers consider those kids games.

Personally I prefer realistic looking games with realistic gameplay. When I think of the Wii I just think o...

It's a free market. They can make their game for whichever console they want, even the Wii. What do they care if they alienate the core audience when the casual audience will give them more money?

Of course they put it on the 360 for the money; there is absolutely no other reason. I'm not saying MS paid them, I'm simply saying that the extra sales resulting in being on two consoles will be greater than one... obviously.

I had my PS3 crap out on me after a year. Then they sent an exchange unit which was faulty. And in each of those situations, I still got my exchange unit faster than 7 business days.

What happened to just playing games for fun? Achievements/trophies? That's just work.

I really don't see the allure of it. You look at your card then compare with a friend, then you go "ah cool" and move on. And how long did you spend trying to get to that point? That's just me anyway, I really don't see the value in it.

I must be getting old or something lol

I guess next time they will be sure to include less then with the original purchase!

Really though, it is sad that gamers are obviously willing to pay these fees (I'm calling them fees because they should be accessible from the getgo). They wouldn't charge them unless people were buying them, so apparently people are buying them. I don't see this trend slowing down anytime soon.

I blame Nintendo for making gaming so market-oriented. The Wii proved games can ...
