What video game came out today, and is not worth $50?
 
I'll give you two hints:

1. It starts with an "M"
2. It ends with "adden 06"

first person to guess correctly wins.

[censored] Madden for keeping the ESPN/SEGA games off the market. [censored] him to hell.

Madden is so lame, its always the same [censored] every year with minor improvments and updated rosters. Football games suck ass too.

Yes, alternatives are good. I haven't bought Madden since '03, but I'll have to now. So I suppose the strategy worked.

OP, can you explain why it's not worth it? Would the story be different for someone who hasn't played the series in 3 years?

It's Madden '05 repackaged with "QB Vision" (basically a cone of hiliting that shows what receiver you're looking at. Your accuracy is hosed if you don't throw to a receiver in this cone).

My main gripe is basically that. EA did nothing to make a great game because they didn't have to. Turn off the "QB Vision" though, and you're left with a year old game with updated rosters.

The QB Vision thing is hard but it does make the game more realistic. You actually notice a difference between Manning/Brady/McNabb and the J.P. Losman's of the world.

Hopefully(crosses fingers) they just winged this years version since the new consoles will all be out when Madden 07 hits stores next year.

Well, it's surely a personal preference. I'm really enjoying it, a blend of sports and rpg that I've craved for a while now.

Someones mad because he can't run 10 yards backwards, do a 180 off his back foot and throw perfectly with Michael Vick. This years version finally takes some skill, get used to it.
