well, that's weird, because I'd never been able to make a play challenge in the first place. Even when it was a highlighted option, it would never let me actually challenge the play in question. But then again, this was in Madden 08. But given EA, I don't expect that they'd have fixed that yet, either.

Yes that's a common glitch in '09 where the start button doesn't even work to challenge a play or change your depth chart. Normally it only happens on the first drive of the game. To the guy who can't challenge plays, you do know you can't challenge under 2 mins right? The booth has to challenge it, but yea the start button thing is some type of glitch where it just dont work at all with any controller.

But it never explicitly tells you if it is because of that, like it does in NFL 2k5. And yes, I've had plays happen where there was plenty of time left on the clock and I should have been able to make the play challenge call, but never could get it to work at all, in ANY Madden version I'd ever played. Why have a feature in there at all if you're never going to let me use it, EA? :evil:
