Hey, just wanted to know if anyone is gonna buy Madden 12 tomorrow when it's released?

Posted: **Tue Aug 30, 2011 2:08 am**

Just bought it. Played 1 game so far. Kicking is crap, they need to fix it. Haven't played enough to give it a full review.

Posted: **Tue Aug 30, 2011 2:22 am**

Is the kicking different then Madden 11? Hey, I'm dying to know, I'm a diehard Metallica fan, can you please tell me if For Whom The Bell Tolls is on the game for the Chicago Bears stadium theme TD celebration?

I played the demo and the real game should be delivered today. Looking forward to it, the demo was awesome and the gameplay seemed VASTLY improved!

Just bought it a little while ago. Just want to add something so cool. I don't have a lot of money but I had a gift card from Toys R Us and so I preordered the game a month ago, so I go into Toys R Us this morning and they ring me up and it came out to 59.99. I just asked them very nicely "Hey, just out of curiosity, how come on your website it's 44.99"?. There was a conversation from the employee and the supervisor as to why the price was not matching up with the website. They went ahead and just took off 15.00 without me even asking them. Anyways, I just thought that I would share a cool story.

I agree. I stopped after 2008. (good thing is I still have Sean Taylor on my team) Of course, only having a PS2 makes the point moot anyway. :oops:

Hey, does anybody know on here how to update the rosters on Madden? It seems to me that they didn't update the rosters after the lockout was lifted.

XBox Live -> Madden Online (or something like that) -> Rosters -> Download Roster

Posted: **Wed Aug 31, 2011 1:01 pm**

Hey guys I finally figured it out late last night.

Posted: **Wed Aug 31, 2011 1:49 pm**

I may pick it up once others can verify that it's more than a roster upgrade and a handful of new features. In the meantime my life is going to be consumed by Gears of War 3 and Diablo 3 (early next year... I hope).

Well, I finally played against the Bears and finally found out that EA never put For Whom The Bell Tolls for the TD celebration. Damn

Posted: **Tue Sep 06, 2011 9:56 am**

.. aaaaaaaaaaaaand the wife bought me a new PS3 that came with Infamous 2 and she also got me the Madden 12. Needless to say I haven't touched Infamous 2 yet. LOL!!!

I put the settings on All-Madden and 2 "quit games" later I changed it to Pro. LOL... then it was McNugget to Santana like all day long. Maybe I'll go All-Pro next but maybe not. LOL

Yeah, man I have always played Madden on All-Pro and on Madden 12 my offense sucks. LOL. Although with practice I have been getting better. My defense has been good.
