    The patch that was expected around release time for Madden 09 has now gone out for both the 360 and PS3. The 360 received the patch early this morning while the PS3 has had it for the last couple days. The list of what was addressed in this patch can be found below. 1. Changed default quarter length of online leagues to 5 minutes. 2. Solved a very rare stability issue that occurred when using a couple of playbooks. 3. Eliminated a button mashing glitch during high latency online games. 4...

    Madden 09 producer Phil Frazier has revealed the details of the first patch for the game which is expected to be available on or around the release date of August 12th, as well as some potential areas to be addressed by a second patch and ideas for downloadable content. The first patch will predominantly be fixes that most people wouldn't have even noticed. The biggest one of the bunch is likely the adjustment that has been made to reduce frequent long kick returns. This wasn't something ...

    The complete list of what is being fixed in the second patch is now available thanks to producer Adam Thompson. This patch is expected to be submitted to MS/Sony today which means it could potentially arrive before September if things go smoothly. The first patch, which fixes the player editing issues, may be out as early as next week. Expanding on what was already known the patch will include the ability to view your Online Dynasty headquarters through EA Sports World along with some bug...

    A patch for NCAA Football 09 to fix editing issues is on the way. The expected time for the patch to go live is 5-10 days from now according to a producer post on Operation Sports. To make this time frame it would appear that Microsoft and Sony would be giving the certification of this patch priority. I wouldn't count on it being pushed out that quickly (seems awful optimistic) but it is good news to know that they are actively attempting to get it out as soon as possible. Only two things w...
  • First patched feature may come for Madden 09

    Madden 09 producers Phil Frazier and Ian Cummings stated earlier this evening that a patch that would add a feature (something that has not been done by Tiburon before) is going to be attempted. The feature which they are hoping to patch in is accelerated clock. The patch process is a lengthy one, so even if they started working on it now there is no guarantee that it would be ready by the time the game launched. Given that adding in features through a patch is difficult since they would be...

    I've held off writing about the current patch situation for MLB 2K8 throughout the week. My general feeling was that just waiting on the patch isn't really news. But developments over the past few days warrant some discussion. March 13th was the day the news came out (via Game Informer) that a patch was in the works to address the poor framerate and Padres franchise roster glitch for the 360 along with a PS3 patch that would only fix Padres issue. Amusingly 11 days later 2K Sports sent out ...
  • No framerate fix for PS3 MLB 2K8

    Earlier today 2K Sports sent out a press release regarding the patches that are being worked on for MLB 2K8. Amusingly it was the very same statement word for word that was given to Game Informer and discussed here 10 days ago. I wonder if that means the "shortly" it will supposedly be available relates to now or when it was originally communicated. As I eluded to when breaking down the statement, 2K was ignoring the PS3 consumers and not addressing the framerate issues while doing so on th...
