Madden Glitch

Due to a bug in a roster update for Electronic Arts’ popular “Madden 2006,” New York Jets lineman Michael King can appear as a mere 7 inches tall. I also hear Madden is crashing PSP’s left and right in franchise mode. What’s with all the football bugs?

What are some of your all-time favorite video game glitches?

  1. Metroid. the doorjump trick.

    and SMB, minus worlds.

  2. Just wanted to comment on the football bugs….it’s EA. This kind of glitchy software is becoming their standard. That happens when a company knows people will buy their product because of exclusivity. I worked in game retail for a couple of years, including when EA’s NFL thing happened last year. Once EA knew they had no competition, they knew they could make the crappiest NFL game possible and people would still buy it. It’s only going to get worse and it’s going to start affecting their other titles as well. EA has no more than 5 years to go before a serious division within the company occurs or the Feds get them. DEATH TO THE EVIL EMPIRE! I hate EA and I hate MADDEN!

  3. I was sick to my stomach when I heard about the exclusivity deal. I kind of liked both games but had been leaning toward 2K since 2K3. SEGA was actually forcing Madden to innovate to keep up with ’em (in certain areas), which made both games better.

    Then EA execs, who were probably working on a deal anyway, just said, “Enough is enough!”. Now I just don’t play football videogames, I refuse to be bullied like that.

    I’ll miss the commentary on the 2K/ESPN series. Madden will never match the quality of presentation in those games.

  4. Why is he so tiny???

  5. Why do people hate EA so much. The NFL are the ones who were looking for an exclusive deal. EA just won the contract that’s it. It’s not like they threw a bunch of cash at the NFL and they took it. You people need to grow up and stop complaining about everything so much. Madden is a great game, deal with it.

  6. EA sucks………….. not anymore a videogame company…………….just a videoganster company……… LoL

    following the path of microsucks…

    It’s not that great, it was just the first to aspire to be great. I didn’t like EA Sports very much before the deal, and because of the deal one of my most anticipated videogames never came into existence and will not exist for years to come.

    Basically, I used to play EA games just because there were no other realistic sports-sim games. SEGA made a better NBA game, so I stopped playing the LIVE series. And 2K/ESPN Football was better, in many areas, and about to become unquestionably better.

    EA has folks brainwashed…the only sports series they do half decently (innovating each year) are NHL and FIFA.

  8. I have posted my copy of Madden on eBay for all interested:

    It is definitely worth looking into if you are a fan of good football games.
