    So,

    the game comes out on Tuesday. Do any of you have an "advanced" copy?

    Who is up for creating a clutch league online?

    FYI, there is a problem already with the 360 version.

    Quote from an insider, "I just got off the phone with Michael Johnson of EA Tiburon, and he informed me that the Madden team recognizes the lack-of-fatigue issue in Madden NFL 07 for the Xbox 360, and let me know that a patch is in the offing."

    I am really looking forward to this game but I can't play it until I get my xbox back from Microsoft after I got the red rings of death 3 days ago.

    reserved it about 2 weeks ago, hall of fame edition...

    and i mentioned a clutch tourny in the other thread...i think it would be fun if someone could set all the seeding up. the hard part though is getting on the same time schedules to play the games. i was going to start a thread on this topic this coming week, a couple days after tuesday to let everyone get their practicing and have time to mess around with all the features within the game. im in if we can get one going...

    Well a couple of weeks ago my game started freezing on me and giving me "this game is dirty or damaged" messages. Then a few days ago it would not even let me play a game it just kept freezing a few minutes after turning my 360 on. Then it started freezing about 2 seconds after I turned it on then I got the dreaded three red blinking lights on my console. Basically this is happening to a lot of 360's and it means your system is dead. So since I did not purchase the warranty I have to pay $130 for Microsoft to fix it. It freaking SUCKS!

    According to the CAG forums, Fry's will have the PS2/XBX version for $37 and the 360 version for $47. I think that is only for Tuesday though.

    What is the terms of the warranty on the 360? Shouldn't it be in the range of one to three years? This should be the manufactuers fault, so why should you have to pay to get it fixed? :confused:

    Try 90 days. If anything happens after 90 days you have to pay $130 to get it fixed.

    Anyone know how close the AI and gameplay in Madden 07(360) will resemble Ncaa 07(360)? I wasnt to impressed with Ncaa, The secondaries AI is piss poor and pass interferences are rediculous.

    i've read that they've cleaned some of that stuff up.

    But apparently there is a bug in the game where it affects the player fatigue. EA is working on a patch right now.

    There are other things that bug me about NCAA, i hope EA fixes. One of them is the sidelines. You have every single player clapping in unison for your team and also when the other team makes a play. It just looks r****ded.

    Imo, EA presentation/graphically is just now catching up with ESPN NFL 2K5. :(

    Always get a warranty with a video game system. I think eb lets you get the warrany up to two weeks after you bought the system? I'm not sure, best call the store and check.
