Royale with Cheese Posted June 6, 2023 Share Posted June 6, 2023 1 minute ago, BritBill said: Never fails to amaze me how adult humans get so emotional over a picture on a computer game box. I remember when Madden in 2006 came out, I was living in LA and I had a 31 year old roommate. He camped outside of Best Buy for 3 days in a tent just so he could be one of the first to get it when the doors opened. The thing is, there were probably over 100 people doing the same thing. I don't know if its the same in the UK but here in the US, video games are a big deal! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Capco Posted June 6, 2023 Share Posted June 6, 2023 Still won't buy it 😄 Fwiw..., I do play Madden, but I still play Madden 2005. Despite new graphics and features over the years, the Franchise Mode in 2005 is the best ever in the series, imo. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Red King Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 We are cursed anyway. What does the curse do, specifically? If it reverses fortunes of successful, lucky teams, might it invert our bad luck to good? 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May Day 10 Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 This is really awesome. Great thing for Allen and the Buffalo Bills. They have gone from irrelevant to a major NFL Franchise 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logic Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 Pretty cool. Even for those that don't play Madden or care about the game at all, Allen being chosen as the cover athlete cements what we all know: Josh is a superstar, the Bills are a relevant team, and their days as an NFL laughingstock are in the past as long as #17 is under center. 3 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it's been about 10 yrs (maybe more) I'd say since I purchased a Madden game. That said, I definitely will get this one just to collect.

BillsFan4 Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 (edited) I’ve known for a few days that EA is doing a VIP event in Buffalo tomorrow and a bunch of Bills players will be there (I know someone who works for EA and know people going to the event). But I was explicitly told not to say anything about the event. So I figured it had to be an event for the Madden cover announcement since it happens tomorrow and why else would EA be in town? I didn’t know if it would be Allen or Allen/Diggs or maybe even Damar Hamlin. Kind of figured probably Allen with the Twitter rumors. Pretty cool!

KingBoots8 Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 God dammit. Now I HAVE to get this year. I skip madden most years (last bought 2017, but had 2021 on game pass). I was going to get it next year because the college game was coming out the same year buuuuuut this one is deserving as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C.Biscuit97 Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 And this is why we need a better backup qb than Kyle Allen!!!! but honestly, good for Josh and the Bills. It’s awesome to have one of our guys on it and it can once and all kill the BS narrative Of a Buffalo bias. Just sucks that 23-24 season is already over! 😞 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
