Madden '09 for Playstation 3 to run at 60 frames per second
Yeah. Um, title says it all. Madden '09 for the PS3 will finally be at 60 fps and not 30 fps as Madden '08 is.
Finally, EA is giving PS owners a damn break...
Anyway, the story I read at N4G goes on to say the 360 and PS3 versions will truly be "equal" this year and of course that the game has been "redone" (yeah it's "redone" every year). We'll see on all of it...

Why no more McCain propaganda? The Global Warming Tour gotcha down?
"May 12, 2008 PHOENIX -- Republican John McCain, reaching out to both independents and green-minded social conservatives, argued that global warming is undeniable and the country must take steps to bring it under control"
Now when the leftists call McCain an idiot, I'll have to agree!
No, actually, I've been playing Grand Theft Auto IV. :-)
McCain is trying to play the Indie card and separate himself from a perceived albatross in Bush by trotting out garbage like global warming.
On this issue, yes, he's an idiot. If you're worried about global warming, vote for Obama. You can't run a conservative campaign on liberal issues. Hopefully *somebody* in the McCain camp will realize this and we'll get more talk on continuing the job in Iraq and the broader WOT.
But yeah, I'd be happier if he was out there talking about reducing the role of government in our lives, not increasing it.
Also, that being said, I really don't have problems with trying to be "greener". I just don't want to see the government involved. As you probably well know, gas in California is much higher than gas anywhere else in the country because of the emissions standards. I don't know how you balance growth with putting restrictions on growth.
I'm still voting McCain, though. What are you gonna do? Suicide vote?
That's mature. I'm sure William F. Buckley Jr. would smile on that from the heavens. Blech.
By the way, if you have a political comment, post it on a political post, not a post about Madden running at 60 FPS. You can click a mouse and find posts, right?
I have to scroll way, way down to find anything political or about McCain. I'm very happy for you that Madden runs at 60 fps. No one will see this post if it is 30 blogs down. Hmm maybe no one will anyway...
Anyone that believes in the hoax of global warming is an idiot, period. Coupled with "immigration reform" it's obvious McCain "doesn't know much about the economy" because he's sure to bankrupt us with his leftist policies.
Yes I will vote for someone besides the big 3 or leave blank. Conservatives don't vote for hot-tempered back stabbing socialists. Do you automatically vote for anyone with an R on their chest? Is there any Republican you would not vote for? McCain is the bottom of the barrel. I wish he would've joined the democrats in 2000 and in 2004 like he threatened to, instead of continually stabbing conservatives in the back for 8 years. Hopefully when he loses it will be the end of his influence.
There's this nifty thing at the top of the blog in silver that lets you search the blog...
No, I won't vote for anyone with an R next to their name. Although I have yet to ever vote for a Democrat. I spent many years voting Libertarian, if you must know.
Listen, I understand your problems with McCain and I have no problem with you not voting, blanking out, switching sides, whatever you want to do.
The issue with me is this, and I've made it many times over. This election, I care about one thing only -- national defense. And there is a clear difference between the stances of the candidates on Iraq and the broader WOT. I will NOT be party to compromising the nation's security because McCain is blowing some "hot air" (har) on global warming.
I agree. Well, not entirely, climate change does occur, I think we both agree on that, what I'm sure we also agree on is that it's a natural process (see: Little Ice Age) and for humans to suddenly step in and claim we're going to control the weather -- which is basically the root of the eco-nuts' ideas...is plain crazy.
If it makes you happy to come a-stumpin' and a-thumpin' on my little blog with your anti-McCain rants, be my guest. But I trust McCain on national security, and that's what I'm voting on. The rest of it -- face it, he's not going to have much of an impact. The economy? Please, the government doesn't control the economy, nor can it.
Anyway, as Bill used to say, I feel your pain. Join the Ron Paul people who are going to protest at the convention. It's certainly your right. But my mind is made up. I'm voting for McCain. He's not perfect, but he's the best we have, he's got a lifetime 80 rating from the American Conservative Union, he's spot-on on the big issues (global warming is not a big issue, face it -- if you believe it is, then you're buying into the liberal bullshit). He will make the Bush tax cuts permanent and he will hold the line in Iraq.
That's enough for me. Obviously, it's not enough for you, and I don't see the point of trying to debate something with someone whose mind is already completely set in stone. Why are we butting heads on this? We agree on the issues, obviously; you're just incensed that McCain got the nomination and don't want to vote for him. That's fine. All I'd ask is not to suicide vote for Obama (or HRC, if we go Bizarro). Seriously, do what you said, blank it out, vote big-L, write in a 3rd-party candidate...send a message.
I guarantee you that if McCain fails to win the White House in '08, we will get a conservative candidate in the next election. But face it, us conservatives didn't have a real horse in this race, period. We were picking from a barrel of RINOs. I think we got the best of the bunch, but it's still a barrel of moderate (liberal) Republicans.
So I understand where your anger is coming from. I'm not happy with it either. I am, however, a pragmatist, and would rather see us prevail in Iraq and the WOT than to tuck our tail between our legs, pack up, and listen to some real liberal -- real dangerous liberal -- tell us how horrible America is for the next 4-8 years.
There. Class dismissed.
By the way, just as an aside, if we could get it -- I'd take four more years of W. Yes, I still support him, I imagine you do as well, and we both know he's a conservative.
Okay, there, that should piss off any liberal reading this. That make you a little happier? If it was W for a third term vs. McCain I'd take George in a New York minute.
Kip, thanks for advertising this McCain discussion in the post above this one. Sorry it's not about Madden, but I thought you needed a curve ball. I appreciate your comments even though I disagree. You didn't even insult me (yet). We agree that McCain will probably do better on the war against Islamic fascism, but he's wrong on 98% of everything else.
I encorage everyone to read the recent NR article on McCain's environmental position and consider the impact.

(sorry for the massive link)
America (and the world) can survive 4 years under a socialist. The Republican party is doomed with a McCain presidency, and thus would present a huge setback for conservative policies and the fate of our nation.
Happy to publish the link, don't worry.
America can survive four years under *anybody*, trust me. There really isn't all that much a president can do, contrary to popular belief, which I'm sure you know. Especially when Congress can block him (or her, but that's doubtful) every which way..
The larger point for me on McCain's eniviro-crap is this: Why are you (McCain, not you) bothering to run on a liberal issue like this? Anyone who buys the global warming bullshit is going to instinctively distrust McCain and vote for Obama. You can't out-liberal him on this issue. It's pointless. I know his campaign advisors are probably telling him it'll get swing voters, but it won't (Independent voter trends are actually usually easier to predict than partisan trends, believe it or not).
Again, though, it's Iraq and WOT for me. If he's wrong on 98% of everything else, but Obama and/or HRC have got the Iraq/WOT 2% *wrong*, I'm breaking McCain. Well, I mean, I've broken McCain, and that's why. It is, to me, the single most vital issue. And, as I said, a president's economic policies can't do a hell of a lot, and besides, McCain will make the Bush tax cuts permanent (which is another 2% he's correct on, even if he opposed them at first).
But I know what you're talking about. Like I said, we conservatives had no real horse in the primary race. Again, though, if McCain governs as a liberal, I once again reiterate that we will see a conservative candidate emrge in 2012 (a viable one).
To have come this far in Iraq just to pull out now...would be horrible...and would most likely produce violence on a scale that well outdoes Pol Pot's "Killing Fields". And in the broader WOT, I guarantee you, terrorists would much prefer the isolationist policies of the two candidates running for the Dem spot than McCain.
Anyone who's following this discussion, by the way, I urge you to check out the NR link posted, it's a good piece.
Er, anyway, that's all I can say, though. I'm a single-issue voter right now. I think winning in Iraq and prevailing against terrorism are the defining challenges of this era and therefore am going to vote according to that philosophy. I tend to disagree that McCain would be as far to the left as you think he would be, but only time (and a McCain presidency) will tell.
I could not bear to listen to four years of Obama empty-suit bullshit or HRC ball-buster crao. I'm still voting McCain, I'm sorry.
Yeah, I know, I haven't insulted you yet. Sorry, I'm losing my touch in my old age. ;-) I'll work something up, I promise.
