This may be a question for some of our law specialists here, but in the event that the lockout is still in place what does this mean for the new madden game? I know that its actual release shouldnt be effected, but what about the players names? Without the union in place would they still be able to have the real names placed on all the jerseys?

Kind of like in the NCAAA games where there all named QB#7 or DT#99 etc. etc.

"It's been fun to get the reaction of visiting coaches to the color of their locker room. Most don't notice it, but those that do are in trouble. . . . When I talk to an opposing coach before a game and he mentions the pink walls, I know I've got him. I can't recall a coach who has stirred up a fuss about the color and then beat us.” Hayden Fry

I say on Madden 12 you pick players or owners, then sit around a table or in a courtroom and argue.

MADDEN is for idiots.

It is the biggest selling sports game in the history of gaming consoles.

LUDUPORCU: Madden is the best simulation game of all time. Get a clue.

Probably a better question for a civil law lawyer but doesn't the NFL license this product? And if it licenses the product, and assuming the players are put in the jerseys that they played in in the 2009-2010 season, I don't know whether the players could object.

Moreover, since they (the players) probably get a taste of the pie, I don't know whether they would WANT to object.

Never dug Video games. Probably because I know I would grow addicted so I just stay away from them.

I'm a long time Maddenner, pretty much started since it all began, I've seen some huge improvements over the years, but the last 5 years I feel as if the franchise has become stagnant, even deteriorating on several fronts.

I'm really tempted to skip this years version. I guess I'm staging my own "lock out".

Now THAT'S funny.

Superbowl XLV may end being 2 guys playing Madden 12 anyway!!

MADDEN IS GREAT! EDDS is playing pretty good for me right now... cant wait to see WR ED GATES

This conclusively proves that MADDEN is for idiots.

Video games have come such a long way...............I remember when i was about 12 my first video game was atari 2600.....Then i had coleco vision..........then atari 5200...........then a few years after nintendo and super nintendo for my kids.

BRRP Now my grownass kids have playstation 200 or some thing like that hooked up to a router in the internet and they play with people all acroos the world.......

Its the evolution of video game. They have come such a long way.

And my younger brother is hooked to video games as well.........he has kids of his own..my nephews...He bought a house and made sure it had an extra bedroom to put up a 52 inch HD tv hooked to i think its playstation 3 or something...He has comcast and a router in there hooked up...
