I'm not saying you don't deserve a few upgrades but to really compare the way NO and DEN came into Madden to that of INDY is really no comparison at all. NO came in rated a 74 and is still 6-0 and I think denver came in at 70 where as INDY was in the upper 80's. And don't be fooled by the little team increases they released a few weeks ago those were a total smoke screen.

That's laughable....

It's about time! Can't really say that I have any complaints. Not sure I understand what caused Colston to take a hit but I'll take the boost on defense anyday. Fri, 9 Oct 2009 17:05:47 +0000 http://www.pastapadre.com/2009/10/09/madden-10-roster-update-6-details#IDComment38005865 http://www.pastapadre.com/2009/10/06/week-four-ratings-change-suggestions#IDComment37518837 I would hardly say Brees has been subpar.... more like his receivers aren't getting as open as more defenders drop back into coverage to protect against him.... allowing the run game to open up. I'm all about keeping these rosters up to date based on current performance but constantly messing with drew's numbers is rediculous we all know he is the best qb in the nfl next to peyton manning. Not to mention if you are gonna dock someone for two weeks of play how bout boosting NO defense for four weeks of exceptional work. Or the O-line for having the number 2 rushing game in the nation!!! As I said before these are not the same Saints from last year .... they need a huge boost!

Tue, 6 Oct 2009 18:40:59 +0000 http://www.pastapadre.com/2009/10/06/week-four-ratings-change-suggestions#IDComment37518011 http://www.pastapadre.com/2009/10/06/week-four-ratings-change-suggestions#IDComment37513754 The entire Saints defense as well as they're Offensive Line Need a Serious Improvement. O-line leading the league in sacks allowed as well as second in rushing yards. They're rushing and pass protection needs some serious increases. Also this is not the 08 Saints Defense and they have made that perfectly clear. You can not shut down any team in madden with the current Saints defense and they have held two teams in a row to 10 points. Pass protection, Catching Ability, and Rushing Ability should be increased across the board. The Saints are a top tier team in the NFL right now and should perform as such in Madden!

I'm a Saints fan, I am well aware of we are the #1 Ranked Offense. How can the team overall go up by 11 points when only three players see minimal increases. Basically what EA is doing is saying that the Overall rating means absolutely nothing by doing this. Fri, 2 Oct 2009 19:23:58 +0000 http://www.pastapadre.com/2009/10/01/madden-10-roster-update-5-details#IDComment36877952 http://www.pastapadre.com/2009/10/01/madden-10-roster-update-5-details#IDComment36764369 And he probably never will, the players around him will though.... Harvin got an increase. I'm a Saints fan and love playing with the Vikes in Madden. The EA team have Favre just where they want him... they have had plenty of years to do it ... LOL. But seriously, I don't think they will really give him much increase, if they do it will probably be miniscule .... last year's late bust is going to prevent Donny from wanting to raise him everytime.

I don't get this at all! Thu, 1 Oct 2009 18:46:32 +0000 http://www.pastapadre.com/2009/10/01/madden-10-roster-update-5-details#IDComment36750447 http://www.pastapadre.com/2009/09/25/madden-10-roster-update-4-details#IDComment35933613 Every preseason game and he is on there 53 man roster. Not to mention the official depth chart. So there is no excuse. There are plenty of players that have not seen action that are in the game. He is suppose to be playing this weekend and but I can't even be him in Madden. Fri, 25 Sep 2009 19:21:03 +0000 http://www.pastapadre.com/2009/09/25/madden-10-roster-update-4-details#IDComment35933613 http://www.pastapadre.com/2009/09/25/madden-10-roster-update-4-details#IDComment35925998 Hey Pasta, I have asked Donny repeatedly to add Lynell Hamilton to the Saints, he has been on the Roster since week 1. Maybe you can give him a little nudge to get this update in there. Pretty sure he is gonna get some reps this weekend so I don't see how it can be avoided any longer. Fri, 25 Sep 2009 17:41:15 +0000 http://www.pastapadre.com/2009/09/25/madden-10-roster-update-4-details#IDComment35925998 http://www.pastapadre.com/2009/09/25/madden-10-roster-update-4-details#IDComment35925889 I have to disagree there man.... the Ravens are pretty amazing in Madden. They are an 83 overall... That's a pretty decent rating and I can beat any team online if I'm the Ravens. There are a lot of other teams that get shafted even worse. The Saints being one of them. Sure we got a few upgrades but we are far far far from being the team you see on Sunday. The highest scoring team in the NFL right now is only a 75 overall....... tell me who has the shaft now. Fri, 25 Sep 2009 17:39:44 +0000 http://www.pastapadre.com/2009/09/25/madden-10-roster-update-4-details#IDComment35925889 http://www.pastapadre.com/2009/09/08/madden-10-afl-dlc-details#IDComment33686074 If the saints were an AFL team I would definitely get it but since they aren't and I don't really use too many other teams I'll probably pass on this one. Though the retro style might be interesting would like to see a vid of that if you get it pasta.

I have already returned a kickoff for a touchdown twice with Breaston.... you just have to follow your blocks. And for how many times I have played the demo I would say that is about right on par with how often a kick actually gets returned for a touchdown maybe even too much. But punt returning is still pretty tough, the computer misses a lot of it's blocks and you have very little time to make a move against the computer.

All they play there is music like this. If anything this adds to the presentation rather than take it away. That is one thing that has always bugged me about sport game soundtrack is it never feels like what would be played in the stadium. This is a perfect soundtrack IMO.

It's only 5 dollars to reserve. If your not willing to reserve then your shit out of luck.... That is the whole point. And why would people have an extra code that is just stupid. I don't like starting flame wars but this is getting ridiculous, the way to get a code is pretty self explanatory. Regardless of whether you think it's fair or not, that's the way EA has decided to start driving up preorders, so just accept it.

Watch on the second play by the eagles, They pick up that blitz by Ware perfectly!!!!! Can't wait this looks like night and day from 09.

I have to say I am very encouraged by what I'm seeing so far with this game. I will probably get this game regardless but hopefully we have a shorter bug list than last year.
