hi everybody,

i own madden 2009 over here in Ireland and see that the dam thing keeps freezing in franchise mode, cant even save the game now. Thought I was the only one, my friends are having the same problem...

i see the ea forums are littered with this problem but I couldnt find anything about it on gamespot.

just wondering if people are having this problem, and what they think?

im aware of the patch coming out to try deal with the problem but im a little skeptical.

also wondering what the gamespot boys think?

anyway i think the whole thing stinks of a barrel of ****

Yep, its happening to me, I returned my game for a new one and the new one hasn't crashed on me, but I've only played three games so far.

Yeah this happens to me too, i think im gonna exchange it for a new one and hope it doesnt do it again. But the problem is my mom bought it at Costco for 50 bucks, do you guys think i can exchange it at eb games for a new one or not.

It has been confirmed in GI that Madden 09 has a bug that causes it to freeze. I have had it happen to me as well during Franchise mode, only solution is to save after every game. I don't know what EA is doing because this bug is also in Madden 08. Also in Game Informer, EA has started a quality assurance department, so hopefully this won't happen in future titles.
