"Finally, a game that everyone is definitely waiting for: Madden NFL 10."

says who? I'm guessing the majority of non-americans don't really care about that game or the sport in general. And hell, most of the americans on my PSN I've never seen playing Madden. Maybe you should change that to 'some people'

Can't see a single game on that list I want.

# I agree. — GUNBEHINDTHESUN 2009-08-10 02:52

Just like most Americans don't care about soccer or rugby. I guess it's not in the cards to have good games every month.

# Lol. — xXxZEROxXx 2009-08-10 11:45

As long as you guys didn't forget about it.

Haha.
