Madden football came out this morning... I hope there's not a 'Freeper passes after Madden marathon' headline in my future.

Girls are smarter than boys. Hopefully she won't get hooked in as bad as my boy has. These games, especially the ones that include an online community are, or can be, as addictive as the most powerful drugs out there. Keep a close reign on the time she spends on it and keep her focused on real life.

I am not joking, but wasn't this rather like the other guy who died not too long ago?
He couldn't stop to eat - because he wss too involved?

I just might skip Madden 06 this year. I'm still pissed at EA for their monopoly tactics. ESPN Football was the better game IMO.

OH... do skip Madden '06. It sucks in comparison to '05 (which mildly sucked in comparison to '04... I'll expand on all of that venom if you like). I have added frustration, because this is the first time I've paid full retail for it. If you do buy it, wait until it shows up used at Blockbuster.

Yes, well, that ends for me this year. See my #39 above. The only reason I've EVER bought each successive version is for updated rosters and new music. After this year, I think I'll just listen to the stereo while I play and deal with the old school rosters.
