Madden 10 Video Blowout #2
Here is another set of HD quality Madden 10 gameplay videos. Featured in this bunch of videos are the Redskins @ Eagles (in the snow), Packers @ Lions, Chiefs @ Raiders (in the rain), and Chargers @ Broncos (in heavy snow with the "wide" camera angle). Weather conditions really have an effect as you'll see players slipping on occasion. When that happens as a WR the icon disappears and as a QB you are momentarily unable to throw. Tomorrow afternoon I'll get up some clips from online games ...

Madden 10 Video Blowout #1
Here is the first group of HD quality videos I've captured from Madden 10. In this batch you'll find short clips against the CPU with the Dolphins @ Jets, Buccaneers @ Saints, and the halftime show from Rams @ Seahawks. There are also user vs user late 4th quarter videos as I attempt to make a comeback as the Texans against the Vikings and Jerkfacefave attempts a comeback late as the Titans against the Panthers in a defensive battle. Tonight I'll add in some more videos against the CPU as we...

Madden 10 Hard Drive Evaluation
Now part of the routine with any new game, I've gone through and timed different loading areas when running off the disc vs the hard drive on the 360. Installing to the hard drive not only has proven to cut down on load times but it also reduces stress to the system and the noise it produces. NCAA Football 10 turned out to show the most improvement of any game so far but that is also a series that has been plagued by slow loading. Madden 10 hasn't been nearly as bad with load times but lets ...

Madden 10 Coverage Beginning Soon
I will have a copy of Madden 10 tomorrow, at which point the coverage surge will begin sometime in the evening. Expect lots of HD videos, online impressions, an Online Franchise walk-through, general impressions, and more. I'll also be leaving random observations and thoughts as I go through the game on Twitter. New content will be posted each day up through release next Friday. As always feel free to leave suggestions in the comments for what you would like to see. Particular match-ups for ...

Pastapadre Online Franchise Update
After announcing the owners for the Pastapadre Madden 10 Online Franchise last week there has been a lot of discussion going on in the forum. Much of it has to do with the system for free agency and salary cap that will be utilized, and when we come to an agreement on that I will post it up since many others out there may be interested in different ways to conduct that business. Luckily that doesn't really become an issue until the first off-season so there is time to hammer that out. ...

Next up for Madden…World Domination?
Just when we thought Madden couldn't get any bigger, today comes word from EA Sport President, Peter Moore, that Madden ‘10 is already ahead of Madden '09 in pre-sale numbers. I just got the latest pre-sales numbers for Madden... and we're now marginally ahead year-on-year with about ten days to go, last year on this call we talked about pre-sales and whether they were really a key indicator anymore for what the strength of the title is going to be out of the blocks... but we're margi...

Madden Arcade Coming This Winter
The success of the downloadable 3 on 3 NHL Arcade led to speculation that other "arcade" titles would end up going the same route. That being simplified, compact, downloadable only offerings centered on fun factor at a lower price point. NHL Arcade sold for a reasonable $10 through PSN and XBLM and most found that it ultimately provided good value. With the end of the NBA and NFL Street (and NFL Tour) those two sports are primed for arcade offerings. It appears that the first one to come ...

Madden 10 WIP Broadcast Camera Angle
One frequent request for the Madden series has been for the addition of a playable broadcast camera angle. The devs are currently working on one that could roll out with either the second patch or as free downloadable content. EA has posted up a video displaying the work-in-progress broadcast camera. Continue on to check it out and leave your thoughts in the comments. (more…)...
