LMAO @ Madden Challenge finals on G4...

Cloudy

The guy winning is cheesing the fuck out of the other dude with the same play over and over and he says, "I don't play football, I play Madden. Football is only for when you have a huge lead".

Classic :lol
 
:lol Yeah I"m watching this too.

VICK RUNS BACK 20 YARDS, THROWS AN OPEN POST.

Major cheese. But if they are going to allow cheese in the tourney I'd exploit it too for 50 gs.
 
Holy shit thats so friggin cheap,amazing how shitty that guy is even using the Vick cheese.

What's cheese

Exploiting glitches and unstoppable plays and basically playing unrealistic football. 4th and 12 and he does that gay dropback pass for 30 yards. What the hell? :lol
 
How much time are you going to give in the pocket there?! It looked like he dropped 10 defenders into coverage on the goal line! :lol

I'm sure these guys are good players, but sheesh this final game looks like who can exploit the game the most will win.
 
I haven't watched this, but all I know is J Sparkz is the shit yo!

Seriously, the first time I saw him I thought it was a joke. I still kinda do.
 
He does that 30 yard drop back on every play,I want to punch that fat fuck.
 
What's cheese, when speaking in Madden terms?

Depends on who you ask. For me, it's exploiting glitches like the Formation Shift stamina bug. I've also heard there's some glitch that will let you block a punt/field goal/PAT almost every time. Other than that, anything is fair game.

Others get pissy when you keep calling the same play over and over if their defense can't stop it. I never called it cheese, I called it shitty defense.
 
It's hilarious how the G4 guy says, "Isn't that play pretty much unstoppable?". Then the Madden "expert" says. "Well, he had to master it!" :lol

PS: Pretty Boy got jobbed by the refs :lol

It isn't shitty defense when you're dealing with Vick in Madden,there are certain things that are pretty much unstoppable if you want to do it every time.

Call me when someone whens with an average team by actually being good at the game and knowing a little something about football,not a Vick cheeser.
 
So basically EA is going to have to crown a Madden World Champion that cheats? Or is his play stoppable (but just not by this opponent)?

Is this live? Where were the finals at?
 
Instant Madden legend? :lol

It wasn't live but they were both exploiting everything they could. The better cheeser won :lol
 
EA should filter out the cheeseheads during these tournies and just find people who really play the game it was meant to be played...is John Madden at these things?I can't imagine him liking something like that since I've seen interviews where he has said he hates seeing people go for it on 4th down and all that stuff.
 
Oh and I didn't know dropping back 20 yards and throwing a 50 yard bomb on the run was called the "strafe pass" O_o
 
Vick is overrated in the game, but the other guy still had a shot had it not been for the fumble. However, if I was playing for 50k, I'd definitely try to win by any means necessary.

I never use Atlanta, nor do any of my friends, so the whole Vick issue never comes up for us anyway.
 
Imagine those two in the gaming-age madden league,Wellie would ban them in a heart beat from the forum.

They are probably members here...

We must find them and torch their village!

Holy hell,I was looking for a village mob pic to say the exact same thing :lol

After Wellie banned them the rest of us would go to their house and cleanse them of their cheesy ways :lol

You know, I'm not even sure they're good players. Neither one of them can kick a field goal for shit, which is pretty basic stuff. And I'm not even talking about stuff that is simply "make-able" like a 30-40 yarder. I'm talking about PATs. Even the ones they actually do make are ugly and barely make it.

They're too busy cheesing everybody else and showing off their "expertise" with retarded nonsensical bullshit that racks up points with ease.

Honestly, if I were EA, I'd be a little bit embarassed that these are the "elites" showing off "high level Madden play" to the world.

Seriously, the only good part of this for EA is that no one watches G4. They'd be better off just showing normal people who don't know how to cheese, but it's tough to agree on a definition of "cheese," and that's always been the big debate in most sports games that are susceptible to it (e.g. every football game).

"Big Gene: Last year was harder ‘cuz everyone was hungrier. It was the first time it was ever $50,000 and everyone was hungry. They didn’t believe it was $50,000, and everyone really practiced. This year, I don’t know, they just learned glitches and learned how to mess the game up instead of practicing every aspect of the game, and that’s what messed a lot of people up today. "

:lol
 
is there an audience? are people cheering these punks on?

I agree that Id probably be doing anything I could to win that game and get 50k but if I was watching these guys playing Id either be laughing at them or booing them.

its too bad they allow stuff like that when theres so many good players out there who could make that something worth watching.

You think they want to watch a bunch of 2-3 yard runs for 4 quarters?
 
"The Championship game was everything a football -- and a Madden -- fan could’ve wanted, and then some."

Sure EA,you keep telling yourself that.

Well the bottom line is, when 50gs are on the line, anything goes.
 
DAMMIT! You guys had to make the topic! I was practicing strafe catch against MrBob right now in an unranked game. We almost have it down, he was able to beat me 42-35 and we were both just chucking it up practicing. Our opponents in the league = Doomed.

Ha ha ha! FMT is a dead man unless he can defend the STRAFE PASS MWA HAHAHAAHAHAHAAHA.
 
I ended up sticking Troy Vincent and Takeo Spikes on Gates and he could still manage to make the play a good amount of the time since Gates beats the bump so well. Fucking Bob. :(
 
Well, I have played with some of the "competition" guys, people who actually have won national competitions. The games are usually not fun because all they do is use exploits every play on both sides of the ball. In a sense, they are the best at the game there is. Just like the best Halo players can blow through levels using shortcuts or playing the way that the game was not intended to be played.

But like I said, IMO playing against someone who plays in that style is not exactly my idea of a good time.
 
If we used the plays they use in the challenge finals in our Madden league, we'd be fools, not experts. But I guess you're right, that people will always find exploits, I just thought that the madden challenge would ....ya know, be a challenge, not a cheese fest.
 
HOW DO U SLIDE?
we all drafted a team I got Vick and I don’t like seeing him get hit how do you slide with the x box it says push X but that makes you dive which can cause fumbles.
