EA Sports Takes Advantage of Retired NFL Players, Madden Asked to Defend Them

PS3 News from N4G | Madden NFL 09

PS3 - Madden NFL 09 - EA Sports Takes Advantage of Retired NFL Players, Madden Asked to Defend Them

Ripten writes:

"You scratch my back, I'll scratch yours. Behind the scenes wheeling and dealing can generate tasty bargains, but sometimes those bargains come with a nasty aftertaste.

In this case, it appears that EA and the NFLPA along with Players Inc. struck a deal for retired NFL player rights that was significantly below fair market value. A class action lawsuit was filed by the players in question against Players Inc, but the fun didn't stop there. In a letter crafted by 51 year old former Buffalo Bills safety, Jeff Nixon, Madden was asked to come to the aid of his fellow Hall of Famers.

Jeff's "Dear John" letter to the former Raider's Head Coach is laced with incriminating quotes, the most shocking being that EA's total cost to produce Madden each year is apparently no more than $200,000!!"

Analysts: Weak Pre-Orders Did Not Stifle Madden

PS3 - Madden NFL 09 - Analysts: Weak Pre-Orders Did Not Stifle Madden

Edge writes: "Multiple analysts have reiterated their BUY rating for Electronic Arts stock as the company has announced that total Madden NFL 09 sales have greatly outpaced the game's flailing pre-order rate.

Pre-orders for the year's Madden were down 25% versus last year, but EA has announced that actual sales of the game were up 6%, generating $133.5 million (£75.74m) in retail dollars.

This strong performance was no surprise to analysts, who have predicting for some time that the low pre-order numbers would not accurately reflect final sales. Arvind Bhatia with Sterne Agee & Leach said in a financial note that this performance was "in line with our checks," and attributed the higher retail dollar count to sales of the $89.99 (£51) collector's edition, as well as a higher percentage of total sales being from the higher-priced Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions of the game, compared to last year."

Madden defeats the movie business

PS3 - Madden NFL 09 - Madden defeats the movie business

TVGB: "EA has just sent us word that Madden 09 has made $133.5 million in retail sales for the month of August. This is a roughly 6 percent increase over last year's game. More importantly it means that Madden made more money than any of the top films for the month of August. Woooo, videogame industry, way to stick it to those dirty movie makers."
