Can anyone tell me if there is any way possible to change the controls on madden 09. By controls I mean change which button performs which action. I hate the way the controls are layed out and I keep hitting the wrong buttons. If not, (EA developers)refer to the title of this post .

It is funny because it is such a stupid question... look at the controller before you pass but make sure you dont get sacked. Either that, or you have gigantic hands...

learn to adjust to the controls. everyone else has to go through it, so why shouldnt you. just because it doesnt come to you like magic doesnt give you the authority to curse its makers.

To get on everyone's bad side: 1) Why is everyone ganging up on this guy? I'm sure by now you guys know when and when not to make hostile posts. I would like to think that majority of the PS3 owners have a good mentality. 2) OP, It's Madden...Just go back to last year's. Can't be that different anyways. >.>

LOL @ Thread title

Anyways, I read that in a future update they might add a "Last Gen Controls" option. I think last year's version gave you the option to map your buttons however you wanted, surprised they took that option out:|.... then again it IS EA:P

EDIT: Not sure how credible it is, but here's the link.

I was with you last year .. they changed the controls and made it really hard for me since I was so used to X as my sprint ..

But honestly now that I am used to R2 as my sprint it is actually better .. you can use your thumb to juke, spin, stiff arm and so on. It's actually the best layout they have had.

Trust me man keep playing and learn the controls, they are much better this way .. even if you don't like it now .. you will ..

What exactly is wrong with wanting the ability to remap controls? Isn't that an option in over 90% of games out there? Is it THAT outrageous a demand to ellicit such a series of hostile responses? I mean really, how often does having more options in a game actually hurt?

Q:Why doesn't Soul Calibur 4 allow you to re-assign the controller buttons?

A:SHUT TEH F#!K UP AND LRN 2 PLY TEH GAM NOOB!!!!

For the most part, I agree. The only thing I REALLY want to change are the buttons that throws to the halfback and fullback. I liked L1(halfback) and R1(fullback) layout from last gen. Pressing L1 when the FB usually goes to the right on passing plays feels awkward to me. Other than that, the more I get used to the new controls, the more I'm starting to prefer them over the old.

Wonderful indeed

But seriously, all they have to do is look in the manual to see if there is an option to re-assign the controls. Sadly, barely anyone does it and just waist forum space...

Totally agree .. I forgot about the L1 being the full back which does feel weird .. but I guess we will have to live with it ..

i agree with any game where you cant customize the controls is bs. no this guy shouldnt have to learn to use their control scheme but hes being forced too through bad design.

where in the post did i cry. I simply asked a question. If i'm not mistaken, on Madden 07 for the 360, you could change the mapping of the controls and THAT GAME IS NEXT GEN!!!!!!!!!!! Same thing goes for NCAA 08

The Topic Creator is right in a sense that the PS3 version is based on the 360 controls which is not a good thing. I swear it is as if EA develop the PS3 game with and 360 controller. who's idea was it to have R2 as the sprint button? we all Know the D-Pad is far superior on the DS, but it feels the 360 controls was just put on PS3 and ea called it a day

Even if you tried to switch the buttons back to the old style, their settings for buttons wouldn't let you have some buttons in the old way. O forget which ones exactly, but it's best to go ahead n get use to it. It actually gets kinda comfortable with the "highlight" stick once you do get use to it.
