John Madden - "NFL does nothing for the fans"

[Fiz]

You do realize that that is the standard price for a video game, right? Super Nintendo games used to cost even more.

No they fuging didn't.

[Fiz]

like i vividly remember paying 32 dollars for mortal kombat 2, and 44 dollars for final fantasy 7.

the only really absurdly expensive game I ever got was that ridiculous steel battalion nonsense.

[Fiz]

seriously you had to buy this just to play the game

who the fug greenlighted that poo?

[Fiz]

and you couldn't save! it came with a big eject button and if you didn't press it in time you had to start the entire game over. You couldn't even play it until you passed like a 15 hour training course it was ABSO fuging LUTELY GOD DAMN RIDICULOUS

Who the hell would buy that bullshit?

[Fiz]

my dad.

[88 Bronco]

Why, did you ask for it?

[Fiz]

i don't remember actually.

I know I never asked for an xbox to begin with.

I remember reading about that set-up in a Game Informer and thought, "Yeah, that will go well."

Madden talking about prices? John, tell EA Sports to lower its $60 pricetag for your game if you care so much about us.

I paid $75 for one ticket and $150 for both me and my son to sit 11 rows back at the 50 yard line to watch the Miami Dolphins destroy the Carolina Panthers during a preseason game.....

I just bough Madden for $60 and we have played 4 games so far and by the end of the season, I'll have played at least 100 games....$60 is a great deal for 2800 minutes of entertainment.

[Fiz]

ahahahaha you're going to play 100 games of madden kill yourself

You see it's simple supply and demand.

The owners are given massive state subsidies to construct stadiums from which they garner massive profits. In return, they charge exorbitant prices, the increase of which has outpaced inflation, and when the taxpayers in a community who financed their stadium can't afford to fill it to attendance, they deny them the ability to view it on television.

QED

TBH most owners buy up the remaining tickets so it will not get blacked out. I think blackouts are more about the Media than the owners.

[Fiz]

Do you want to research that yourself or just have me insult you and prove you wrong?

[Kurb]

insults are not permitted
