A lot of us are Electronic Arts fans who religiously follow every installment in their annual sports franchises. Even that much loyalty though, is not enough to appease an angry gamer after spending US$ 60 to get a copy of Madden NFL '08 (Xbox 360, PS3, Wii, PSP, DS, PC) only to find out how glitchy it is. ...EA needs to STOP
releasing beta builds of their games. EA needs to STOP releasing a game
that needs a patch the next day. EA needs to STOP letting us the
consumer/gamer pay for a buggy product. EA needs to get their act
together and get some REAL Quality Assurance going on. |

FIRST POST I RUL3
ya man! First poster is always the homo
QJ, it would be really nice if you placed a warning for young viewers out there..almost every other word out of this lunatics mouth was the infamous F-word.
peace out ay-town
LF SAMIR GEAGEA
lol this is the funnest *****en thing i seen in awhile lol
This video ROCKS! I think I'm gonna watch it for the 5th time! "EMO SOUNDTRACK!" HAHAHA! MADDEN SUCKS! WOOOOHOOOOO! Now I know there is at least 1 other person out there that thinks EA is garbage.
fuc***g HOMO!
U aint the only ones, believe me. The gamers that do hate EA hate them with a passion.
EA is *****.....ontop of this game being 3 years newer and on a next gen system is still looks only just as good ESPN 2K5 for xbox. EA is gay, with the exception of fifa and last nhl 07 which was the best nhl since the snes days
Here a simple solution, just do by ea games.
Spread the happiness. ON playasia, the psp's gps is finally on sale!! If you keep delaying, now would be a good time to buy it, with all the new homebrew including Deniska's 3d mode ($60). http://www.play-asia.com/SOap- 23-83-7rqf-71-bh-49-en-15-gps- 84-j-70-1mij.html
It's not as easy as that when EA publish about 90% of all worthwhile games. If you don't buy EA games you're going to end up with very few decent games to play.
beta testers are ssuppose to fix flaws and posibble glitches this is very sad to hear from EA
The point of the video was that the FINAL copy of the game seemed like a BETA.
Well, that is one good reason why I do not purchase games from EA. The majority of games I purchased from them in the past turned out to be disappointing at best, and a number of them seemed more like betas.
Anyway, on a less serious note, the glitches themselves were somewhat amusing.
funniest thing i ever seen in video games. thats why i don't buy EA
is like a michael moore for video games
seriously is that *****in guy stupid? first of all UR NOT SUPPOSE TO BUY BETA GAMES FROM EA U *****IN IDIOT!!! second of all don't ***** to people that ur mad at ea for the *****ty glitches in the game. and third of all y would u waste $60 dollars on a beta game.
He was calling the game "BETA" because of the glitches he caught. He did not buy a "BETA" version numbnuts. Games go through beta testing to catch glitches like the guy was showing on the video.
i think you missed the point.. guy
Holy crap man. You're post had me cracking up. I think thats the dumbest thing I've seen somebody say on QJ. You're an idiot. hahahhah
Are you 10 years old?
"Ok, maybe I'll decide to pick up this game from the BETA bin..." what in the h3ll? is this guy stvp!d?
how retarded do u have to be after that video to think it really was the beta
Think before you call others "stupid" butters. You're obviously the only idiot on here, sheesh, what a loser.
butters "equals" dumba**
The game he bought and is playing is NOT A BETA. It's the actual game, obviously, but it's so glitchy you would think it's a beta. Go back to school before making your next post.
he said dont buy beta games from ea. you're all dumbasses for thinking thinking that he believes that he really purchased a beta version. he's just saying that all ea games are basically betas and shouldnt be supported.
no, he did call it a beta game.
EA have done this for decades, don't buy there ***** and they will go away.
so who do we get our NFL fix from then?
If this guy is so pissed about this, why doesn't he just stop buying their products, or maybe he shouldn't have bought an xbox in the first place LOL.....there should have been a disclaimer stating that this video had so much swearing
What does an Xbox 360 have to do with glitched EA Games? I'm pretty sure EA makes games for other systems >.>
Does it even say which version he has?
Ok it does say in the video it is an XBOX it's played on but obviously bad coding and lack of testing.
I'm sure the PS3 version has the same type of problems in addition to only being 30fps.
The only EA game I have is Need for Speed Carbon and while there's no major glitches, I hate the rubber band AI.
And that just proves it is EA's fault it is @ 30 FPS so in reality the 360 is really not "better". But that won't matter to you since ALL you do is bash ANYTHING Sony.
I've got no sympathy for this guy at all.
If you're buying EA's warmed over rehashes year after year then you are part of the problem, and have no business complaining about the quality.
If you are someone buying an EA game for the first time then my sympathy goes out to you, and I hope the store you got it at had a good return policy.
Well that will teach you to buy a EA game. Should have got All pro!!!! lol!
Well that will teach you to buy a EA game. Should have got All pro!!!! lol!
yeah there shoule be something warning about the language
just saying....
Not sure whats more annoying. Those glitches or the idiot talking in the video.
are you kiding me? that was *****ing hilarious
so one guy shows a glitch, and all of the sudden everyone thinks the game should have gone through more rigorous testing?
Halo 2 has glitches that still haven't been fixed, and it's still the most played online game for the xbox over 2 years later!
1 person with a glitch doesn't mean EA didn't test their game.
Defending your precious ea, with your 1000s of versions of the same game.. and then 1000s of differnt games for the same sport. I mean, Soccer does change its rules each year a tiny fraction, im sure other sports do too, but all you pay for each time is MAYBE a update in graphics (especially if its on a new console) else you are paying for a tracklist and a updated name database. Well i hope that pleases you at home in bed at night when you will buy madden foosball 2005 2006 2007 2008 and probably madden foosball blackedition 2008 (WITH MORE BLACKNESS THEN EVER BEFORE).
good work on the foosball comment.
so funny xDDD
LOL at the Madden Foosball blackedition quote, that really did have me in stiches.
The bad thing is that, knowing EA, it isnt too far from the truth. All of these constant yearly updates, its so easy for them to build on the crap they already have with even more crap, thats y they can make so many games.
Wheras with great games, they come out once every few years cos they have so much more effort put into them (think RE 4 and 5). 5 is coming out 2010 yet 4 was out for ages.
I love it when people rant like that. Hell, he's lucky, the same game will cost about $80 here in the UK, and God knows it isn't worth it!
Good on him for highlighting some serious flaws, and I hope EA saw that video crapped themselves. Feel the force of the internet boys, you can't kill publicity like that.
My sympathy is a little limited though - American Football is a wuss version of Rugby anyway, he should maybe play a real game and not a sim. Real men don't wear body armour to play sports ¬_¬
wow ur truly are idiot, i will agree on u to some extent but wearing body armor is just not being a wuss but being able to protect yourself if something were to happen. You think the owner of the team cares if something happen to you out their, No you mean no ***** to them, they only care about their money. So if your calling your self a real men not wearing some kind of protection while playing brutal sports then your an idiot.
American Football but to say that Acteon is just way off...
i think American Footballers can get on any field with Rugby players for some huge tackling sessions... and i wouldn't be surprised if they take down the rugby players too... if you look especially at the African American athletes playing the sport they are damn huge and fast and agile... just cause they are made to wear body armour doesn't mean they are wusses.
so you're saying we shouldn't protect our balls from being crushed? Maybe thats why YOU are a wuss. Cuz you're a victim of unintended castration since you thought you were "too awesome" to wear protection.
So sensitive... Seriously, I do watch American Football on occasion, and the guys playing are pretty seriously built, but the protection they use causes more accidents than it prevents, as they just pile into each other full pelt - and that's when limbs start to snap. Watch a game of rugby - it's still full contact but far more restrained and structured.
Each to their own. But @ Syde: "wow ur truly are idiot"? English much? ^^
Quixand you are wrong. Try putting those AFL wusses on a field and have them playing against Rugby players for 40 years without all those time outs and rests and oxygen and other bull***** and not rotating defense and offense and see how long they last!
Rugby players aren't as huge because they have to last the whole game, but I think you will find that they are a whole lot tougher and with much greater stamina.
LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL that was some funny a$$ $hit
I think they truly lived up on the HYPE on this one, look at all the angry gamers that bought that crappy game from EA.
PS: This reminds me of LoRD on Xdead360 lolz!!!111oneoneone
Does anyone in the PSP modding community (which is supposed to be what this blog is about, but there isn't enough news in the hacking community to compete with other gaming blogs, so they use normal gaming news as filler) give two sh1ts about Madden? I mean, Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring, people. EA is a company that's known to keep a stable of underpaid, undertrained developers who don't know how to make good games lately. This is what happens when you buy the same game every year, repackaged with the latest RL team rosters and sold to you for the same price...every fricking year.
As far as this guy goes, he has every right to be pissed as hell. Because of the piracy excuse, you can't even take a game back to the store because it sucks. If launch-day sales are good enough, the company calls it a success and keeps making crappy games. Seriously, those bugs are inexcusable. The fact that he's able to consistently reproduce the glitches for a video demonstration is cause for major concern.
QJ, let's stick with Homebrew and at LEAST news that has to do with the PSP.
Thats what i was thinking fliping thru this... what the hell does this have to do with PSP or even about the game glitches... soon enough this will turn into a flame war about consoles... this is so stupid
http://xbox360.qj.net/Enraged-gamer-reveals-Madden-NFL-08-glitches/pg/49/aid/100008
FYI.
What else do you expect from a 360
Go end buy A PLAYSTION 3
PLAY HARD , GO PRO but not on a xbox 360 !!!
And then with a PS3 you can play ported PS2 games until the real games come out! SCORE!!
ahhahahahaa EAs complaining just because they had to put it on the PS3 because sony gave em some *****ty dev tools ps3 FTW + Plastation Three *****ed The World
why would I wanna play the ps3 version? I doesnt even run at 60fps or have all the features of the 360 version. The glitches are in both versions of the game, r-tard.
i've the PS3 version... been playing it.
the games ok, nothing's wrong with it.
after all the bragging the XBots has been spewing turns out the better Madden 08 version is on the PS3 after all.
Look I hate madden...but to say the ps3 version is better because you think it is glitch free is just plain stupid. Enjoy that 30 fps losers. I have both systems and the ps3 just plain sucks. To bad it didn't come in white, at least then you couldn't see all the dust the thing collects from just sitting there being not used.
i hate that guy's voice so whiny
EA might be the worst offender, but all the game studios are pulling crap like this...think about it:
It's ok for game studios to release unfinished product into stores. But if you don't like the product, you aren't allowed to return it to either the store or the studio because you "coulda woulda shoulda" made a copy of the product. Even though less than 10% of gamers out there have the ability to copy games, 100% of customers can't return a faulty product? This is a corporation's wet dream, people.
i aint gay
I like how QJ.net never mentions what the video maker posted... that he has the X360 version and is ONLY calling that game crap. Who knows if the other versions are doing it, but leave it to the biased crew at this site to disguise it as a video against all versions of this pitiful game.
If that were a PS3 video... you KNOW this Sony-hate site would've blared on about the PS3 problems with a Hitler picture to match. Screw you again QJ.net, and the corrupted horse you rode in on.
I dont think they conveyed any bias really... yeah they didnt state it was for the 360 version big whoop people with common sense will listen and see what the guy is talking about. and besides... if you go to the ps3 part of QJ they have an article that talks about how the frame rate are at 30 and not 60 as is on the x360. yeah youll take it as defending the 360 or whatever bull you want but they do show that this game... along with other football games suck on frame rate for the ps3. (btw i have a ps3 so dont call me a fanboy to *****. i call it as i see it)
Actually the article says it SOMETIMES dips into the 30's. But that is EA's fault not Sony's as proven by the crappy development shown in this game in this EXACT article.
This looks like it's not even worth pirating. :o
hahaha...don't waste the bandwidth/rental money.
dude? what the *****...dude what the *****....dude what the *****...dude? what the *****...dude what the *****....dude what the ***** dude? what the *****...dude what the *****....dude what the ***** dude? what the *****...dude what the *****....dude what the ***** dude? what the *****...dude what the *****....dude what the ***** dude? what the *****...dude what the *****....dude what the ***** lol
Best Video Ever!
That was *****ing hilarious!!! EA blows hard ***** really they do. All their games suck cuz they suck! lol
"Wah! My game is glitchy WAH!" Why don't you cry about it already.
This is the best video ever. That guy was pissed.
it shouldnt matter which system the game is released on.
EA and other publishers should quit releasing unfinshed games.
to all the people that are whining about the guy cussing, call EA and have them send you some glitchy EA branded tissue for your and plug your virgin ears.
Every EA game I have sucks. They are all Glitchy. It seems to me that EA does not care about the consumers enjoyment then rather making lots of money for themselves. EA needs to step it up a notch.
EA does in fact make many crappy games that would have been great if they had taken a bit more time on them (ex: battlefield2). And to those who don't think he has a valid point, go buy an EA game without your daddy's money. Then we'll see what you have to say.
"It seems to me that EA does not care about the consumers enjoyment then rather making lots of money for themselves."
Wait a minute, are you suggesting that a large company is trying to make lots of money? This is outrageous! I was led to believe that EA was a non-profit organisation dedicated to bringing you high quality products from the kindness of their hearts.
