Just picked it up last night. Truly awesome. I've had almost every Madden since the beginning in college for the Sega Genesis. As the years have gone by, I'm getting worse as the strategy gets tougher. This year the game is so incredible, I'm going to commit to getting good. Even if that requires me to spend more money on a strategy guide......there have been some ABSOLUTELY hilarious articles on Madden on Page2 and Page3 on ESPN.com the last couple of days. If you're a grown man and excited about a video game, these articles will make you laugh out loud.

Here's to acting like a kid, even at 36 years young!!

P.S. I was up until 1:30 playing football last night, probably will be again tonight.....man, I'm a loser
