Madden NFL '06 site launches

Sure hope you like Flash based websites, as the official Madden site is loaded with the stuff, and it all comes complete with horribly repetitive music. Lovely. Your web browsing experience is now complete.

The site points out a rather amazing fact. It's been 16 years since the first Madden game! Those who can remember the early versions can at least take comfort in the fact that todays games are largely better than those from 16 years ago. Sadly, Madden talks a lot more now, but then that's what volume settings are for.

The site offers the usual frills. There's even a community blog. That's it EA, ride the wave, baby.

Madden ships soon on about a thousand different systems.
