In 360 06 Tedy isnt even in the game. Artrell Hawkins is as a free agent but it freaking sucks that Tedy wasnt in it.

Then we'd throw the videogame box at him and ask him if it FELT fake.


That one hit the spot for me.

I don't know what all the fuss is about. Madden "ratings" it isn't like the game is based on anything to do with real life......

No arrests every week by a member of the Bengals or a Steeler doing something stupid on a motorcycle...and I don't think they even have the "Manning cry" in there on a incomplete pass do they? Until they get "real" it is a poor imitaiton for the pure entertainment on and off the field compared to the real product.....

EA claims they do "alot of research" to come up with their ratings, but usually their ratings are based on hype/balance issues. At least Madden's are somewhat realistic (though I loved that they had some bitter looking black guy as Steve Neal's photo for years before they finally got it right last year), look at the hockey games for examples of really messed up ratings. Hal Gill was like a 85, Jiri Slegr a 82. Guys who put up 100 points last year were 75s. That and they have about 800 different rating categories... what exactly is the gameplay difference between "poise", "nerve", and "composure"? Damned if I know, but there were seperate ratings for all three.

These numbers weren't decided yesterday, I'm sure they are all done weeks ago, way before the preseason games started.

I think everyone expected Maroney to be solid, I'm not sure they were expecting the performances he's turned in so far in the preseason. (Averaging 6.3 yards per carry)

I wouldn't consider it some great slight by any means, after all, it's just a game, not real life.
