omg cock blockThursday, September 10, 2009 @ 11:26 PM
Damn just got my 1k on this yesterday. Looks like it won't make the trade for ODST after all. =[Thursday, September 10, 2009 @ 11:28 PM
I just returned this game today after renting it for the 1K. 560 points is more than I paid for the rental.Thursday, September 10, 2009 @ 11:28 PM
Just get ODST, its only 150 extra points. ODST will have 1000 for you to getThursday, September 10, 2009 @ 11:39 PM
Wow didn't see this coming at all.Thursday, September 10, 2009 @ 11:47 PM
wow, lol and i dont care about getting the most points in games... EXCEPT SPORTS GAMES. f*** it! i have never done this with dlc before but i think im gonna buy this even though i dont want it just for the points! i fail!!!! :(Thursday, September 10, 2009 @ 11:54 PM
wow, people rent madden to get achievements? lol.Friday, September 11, 2009 @ 12:07 AM
Haha I know rightFriday, September 11, 2009 @ 12:21 AM
A sports game going over 1000? Nearly unheard of. And like many of you - dammit, i just got my 1000 on a rental a few weeks ago.Friday, September 11, 2009 @ 12:27 AM
fifa 09 had 1250Friday, September 11, 2009 @ 01:13 AM
I love how my hard earned completion percentage keeps dropping thanks to shit like this. Fable 2, Madden, Star Wars, Scene It.... But I'm not gonna let my addiction to achievements and completion percentage make me rent these games again then pay twice what i paid to rent them for some shitty DLC and a few points. Shove it, MSFriday, September 11, 2009 @ 01:20 AM
They sure were quick to pump out some DLC, but I won't be getting this because, frankly, I don't enjoy sports games as much as I enjoy other genres.Friday, September 11, 2009 @ 01:49 AM
when sports games start with paid DLC, and out with collectors editions(NBA 2K10), its cool, but raises some alarms....i dunno for a sports game that will last 3 months tops, for most people, not a wise moveFriday, September 11, 2009 @ 02:32 AM
sports is the best gaming genreFriday, September 11, 2009 @ 03:03 AM
This is different...AFL really? I guess since it only took me less than 2 days to get 1000, I may as well play this and get the other 150 or whateverFriday, September 11, 2009 @ 03:07 AM
I actually think this was a great idea... but I can see now that EA will be doing this to every title they release... Completionists that don't enjoy paying for DLC now need to keep this in mind when playing EVERY EA Sports title because this is just the beginning.Friday, September 11, 2009 @ 03:36 AM
So glad I havent rented this thenFriday, September 11, 2009 @ 03:48 AM
not even gonna get madden now, bullshit eaFriday, September 11, 2009 @ 03:50 AM
i didn't think i would see DLC for madden 10 lol and not this soon after release.. it must be that time of year when EA go crazy.Friday, September 11, 2009 @ 04:22 AM
WHAT ALOUD OF SHITFriday, September 11, 2009 @ 05:04 AM
#22 That has to be one of the dumbest comments I have ever read. You're not getting a game because it has DLC? and why is almost everyone complaining? it's not like anyone is forcing you to get the DLC is it? and neither is EA the only company to do this. If you don't want the DLC, then don't buy it. It's not that hard.Friday, September 11, 2009 @ 05:24 AM
well i personally bought Madden 10 so its no problem for me to pop it back inFriday, September 11, 2009 @ 06:02 AM
lol #5.. i only got 595 from madden this year.. i didnt focus on all of the harder achievements.. but i still have the game, although i don't think i'm going to be buying the DLC for these..Friday, September 11, 2009 @ 06:08 AM
*whine**cry**moan* O.M.G I r a completionist and achievement whore but when gamez has DLC plus moar cheevos I not like dat!!! *whine**whine**cry*Friday, September 11, 2009 @ 07:24 AM
People shouldn't buy sports games just for the achievements. With that being said. I don't think their should be a DLC with achievements for a sports game.Friday, September 11, 2009 @ 07:28 AM
Haha what a load of shit EaFriday, September 11, 2009 @ 07:43 AM
glad my buddy works at a video store....RENTING AGAIN! grrr..... sucks i have to waste points on this crap. Maybe down the road I'll buy it off ebay when it's 5 bucksFriday, September 11, 2009 @ 08:30 AM
Are you all really that bent out of shape over this???Friday, September 11, 2009 @ 08:40 AM
I will most likely re-rent Madden and pick up this pack as well, but I definitely fear the trend we are setting. If sales of this pack go too well, EA might start leaving even MORE out of the games, and charging you for them. This version of Madden was, by far, the most stripped down version, as even difficulty levels were "DLC only" for online play. My other concern is that while I don't mind paying for map packs I can use/ re-use for the duration of a good shooter (usually a 2-3 yr lifespan before a sequel), in less than a year there will be Madden 11, with more DLC.Friday, September 11, 2009 @ 09:04 AM
At least they're easy.Friday, September 11, 2009 @ 09:09 AM
This has convinced me to only buy Madden games used and after year that they've been out. Then I can buy it for $5, get whatever stupid DLC they have for it and still get 100% completion for a lot less. EA better not make this a habit. And how much do you bet this was ready a month ago?Friday, September 11, 2009 @ 09:37 AM
ha awesome! i was gonna get this anyhow! lolFriday, September 11, 2009 @ 09:47 AM
Come on people, you realize that your saying, just because EA released DLC with achievements, you all of a sudden hate them and wish had never bought or rented Maddden, all because of your completion percentage. Who cares? It's just achievements. I'd buy it because it sounds funFriday, September 11, 2009 @ 10:00 AM
seriously some of you people need to get out more. Your complaining about the new DLC ruining your completion %? Get a life!Friday, September 11, 2009 @ 10:05 AM
failFriday, September 11, 2009 @ 10:11 AM
Why not just make it 400MSP Micro$ft.Friday, September 11, 2009 @ 10:16 AM
I heard on the psn that it's free for them. Just saying.Friday, September 11, 2009 @ 10:19 AM
Oh, did you hear that EA is mailing $200.00 checks to game reviewers. cough(bribe) coughFriday, September 11, 2009 @ 10:21 AM
EA sucks c*ck. After what they did with Skate 2, Fifa 09, Godfather 2, Fight Night round 4, and now Madden?! What a joke. They can't get any achievements right, and they have no shame in ripping you off over and over again. Madden won't stop at 1150. 1250 min. Guaranteed. I will never buy anything made by these greedy morons.Friday, September 11, 2009 @ 10:35 AM
Good thing I don't know anything about American Football, or I would be whining just like everybody else lolFriday, September 11, 2009 @ 10:51 AM
Fuck Madden games, I don't blindly follow EA anymore. ESPN 2K5 FTW!!!Friday, September 11, 2009 @ 10:52 AM
people bitch about not getting dlc for games then it's a problem if the dlc doesn't have achievements, but since they are whores and rented this game they bitch about dlc. you guys suck (almost all of you). you're ruining the industry, not e.a. sure it's weak that this probably could have been shipped on the disc, but come on, it's a fucking business! they are not here to make you happy, they are hear to make money.Friday, September 11, 2009 @ 11:53 AM
A bunch of self-obsessed crybabies commenting here. Wow.Friday, September 11, 2009 @ 11:55 AM
^^^^ AGREEDFriday, September 11, 2009 @ 12:13 PM
Lol @ Don - Me to mate. I have NFL 10 but doubt i'll ever play it but i need to finish 09 but the games are damn long.Friday, September 11, 2009 @ 12:30 PM
Too all you people complaining about your 1000GS getting destroyed, shame on you. You should play games for the actual game, not achievements...Friday, September 11, 2009 @ 12:43 PM
You know, I probably care about completing games as much as anybody else, but all this crying going on around here is pathetic. Besides, does anyone really care about your completions besides yourself? This has been getting way out of hand in my opinion. To think in any circumstance, having post launch DLC whether free or not, or with achieves or not is a bad thing is purely moronic. If you want it, get it, if not don't. Grab some Kleenex's, blow your nose and wipe your face and move on.Friday, September 11, 2009 @ 12:58 PM
@ 51 agreed the people who are complaining about their percentage I guess have nothing better to do with their lives. You people are way too obsessed with your xbox.Friday, September 11, 2009 @ 12:59 PM
haha this is to funny, everyone complaining cause there is DLC for a game. and its true noone really does care about your completion percentage besides yourselfFriday, September 11, 2009 @ 01:38 PM
EA is so pathetic because they copy other companies like epic with their dlc coming out when the game isn't even 1 month old yet. Only 150 points in this pack means they are coming out with more packs just like epic did. Both companies copy each other with the horrible lag of online play. Then again, epic is just as ridiculous as EA ever since gears 2 came out. EA would be a better company if they didn't have so many glitch achievements, wouldn't doubt it if these are glitched.Friday, September 11, 2009 @ 01:47 PM
For anyone who plans on re-renting the game to get these 150 points, I'd probably wait until you know EA's done releasing DLC for this game.Friday, September 11, 2009 @ 02:05 PM
LOL @ all the people who complain about people complaining. So let's me get this straight..you need a life because you complain about DLC?LOL! This is sad, however I have Gamefly. I'll just rent this again in a month or two.Friday, September 11, 2009 @ 02:30 PM
First off, I agree with #55. Secondly, I don't really understand why many people like completions. I am nearly obsessed with completions, and as such they make me go back to games I have yet to finish because I KNOW they aren't finished. But when you have (choose, whatever) to pay money for extra content because it means you don't have the game finished anymore, it becomes an annoyance. I'm not complaining about this game, because I like Madden games. This is directed towards games that use the DLC system as the game's saving grace. This same "saving grace" is directed towards the completionists and achievement whores, not the people who play the game for the game's sake. Then it becomes an argument over the content's focus (I hear EA being money-grubbing instead of quality game-produciFriday, September 11, 2009 @ 02:30 PM
ng for instance). Then you realize these companies don't care what you think. Then they lose business. So in short, by making DLC in most instances where people don't care for it, you lose customers through the whores and 100%ers. Question is, do these companies make enough off the DLC to make up for the loss of customers?Friday, September 11, 2009 @ 02:32 PM
yeah #45 that game was awesome. i don't get why you stupid fucks care. they are achievements. it does not matter in real life. and why the fuck complain when you are gonna waste your money on it anyways dumb cuntsFriday, September 11, 2009 @ 02:34 PM
and another thing. do you honestly think people care that you are gonna be a douche and rent it again. no. get on with your fuckin livesFriday, September 11, 2009 @ 02:39 PM
lameFriday, September 11, 2009 @ 03:12 PM
*goes outside and throws a football around* Achievement unlocked! Catch! 5G - Go outside and throw a football around. *celebrates with a leap and tears knee ligament* Achievement unlocked! OH GOD! 5G - Way to channel Bill Gramatica, ass.Friday, September 11, 2009 @ 03:18 PM
omg... The achievements in the real game take time to get, and these are just pathetic. I can't believe they already have to make DLC when the game is barely a month old. EA, are you holding out on us? Just like i'm sure you guys do to make every Madden better than the lastFriday, September 11, 2009 @ 03:23 PM
everygame should take after timeshift. the DLC achieves only appeared AFTER u DL it. that way it wont fuck up ur percentFriday, September 11, 2009 @ 03:41 PM
Er, wow... That was kinda fast, wasn't it?Friday, September 11, 2009 @ 04:24 PM
DAMN it, and have to go rent it againFriday, September 11, 2009 @ 04:29 PM
Good times # 28,#32, #46, #47... For some gamers the world does revolve around them and they believe evil developers, who only want to make money, sit around and plot ways to make their life terrible by ruining their game completion percentage. Call me guilty, I love coming to these news posts. It's as if the sky is always falling for some gamers. They have no coping skills. So entertaining. I'm excited for this, the first Madden above 1000. I'll take more easy points any day. Move this up on my Gamefly list.Friday, September 11, 2009 @ 05:18 PM
I don't understand why people just get games for achievement points. I mean don't get me wrong I love getting acheviements (that's why I am on this site) but I will not go out and rent a game just to get achievements they are worth nothing.Friday, September 11, 2009 @ 07:29 PM
well said steelcity! i love my gamerscore as much as the rest on this site, but i would never even rent a game i wasnt into for achievements. plus 90% of people on this site are boosters! whats the point of playing the game? do the feel good after boosting?Friday, September 11, 2009 @ 07:38 PM
I just don't understand how this gimmick works and doesn't get all of you angry. 560 MSP for jerseys and logos? What a joke.Friday, September 11, 2009 @ 07:42 PM
Also forgot to add, why is it that there are so many people on this site that rip on people who care about achievement points and completion %? this is a website dedicated to getting achievements.Friday, September 11, 2009 @ 08:39 PM
I only rent EA sports games, as they have such a bad habit of poor support that I feel robbed if I buy them for full price...Anyone up for some Tiger Woods 06 or NBA Live 06...oh, wait, there is no server any longer! Until EA stops selling crap that expires at the end of a season and charges for crazy stuff like difficulties and day 1 cheat codes, I prefer to use my GF account to play the game as long as I want, rather than making a full purchase, and if I change my mind, they have pretty good discounts on "used" games.Friday, September 11, 2009 @ 08:50 PM
@71 That's what I was thinking. I mean the site is called Xbox360ACHIEVMENTS.orgSaturday, September 12, 2009 @ 11:33 AM
Stop complaining about completion percentage! This is a bad thing because this AFL pack was clearly ready a month ago and should have been included with the game. Other than that, every DLC should have achievements in my mind. Worry about gamerscore, not completion percentage. This is Xbox360ACHIEVEMENTS.org not Xbox360100%COMPLETION.org, so more achievements should be what you want!Sunday, September 13, 2009 @ 10:20 PM
well said 71 and 74,i will buy it as i love madden and its only 560 ms pointsMonday, September 14, 2009 @ 01:44 PM
Im super pumped for this. Playing with old AFL teams will sick. It does irritate me though that it just wasn't included with game. You people need to stop bitching about completion percentage. I love achievements. The more merrier. Especially when it come to DLC. Renting or buying games specifically for achievements is dumb.Tuesday, September 15, 2009 @ 09:31 AM
I'm not concerned about the additional achievements... what I AM concerned about is EA releasing DLC so soon after the release of the game. In my opinion (and I am entitled to one, so there is no need to flame) this year was a wee bit bare bones, especially considering you had to pay DLC for the hard difficulty, it just seems like they are throwing shit out there to make another buck without the quality to back it up. Being that this is only 150 Gamerscore, you can almost guarantee that they will be releasing more DLC to get up to at least 1250. As someone already said, this content was most likely ready a month ago, it should have been included for the original $60. That being said, if they released a DLC pack with all of the classic teams, or even a set of classic games/Super Bowls thatThursday, September 17, 2009 @ 06:29 PM
Five Hundred AND 60 microsoft points.....really? If only those crooks who work at microsoft could just let you buy the DLC for its real price instead of making me pay fucking twice as much to get that extra 60 points. The system is an absolute scam.
