Controller configuration

I got Maddden Yesterday, it's great, but I can't chaneg the controller to Madden '05 settings(basically just change O and X buttons on defense and other minor stuff with throwing the ball away instead of bringing down passing icons), so I suck at tackleling. I actually lost on ALl Madden cause I'm so used to the cnotrolls/ Is there some way to chanegd the controller configuratoin that I don't know about, is my playstation broken? Am I retarded or should EA let players change the buttons? I've bought every copy since '93 and I have never been so pissed. I guess i'll just get used to it.

When they change buttons, it pisses me off too...Just seems pointless.

However, changing the sprints was a wise thing to do as they are the same on both sides of the ball...Been that way for a while now, you should get used to it rather than change it. And I remember when they did do the switch, I wanted to change it back, but didnt see how, so there may not be that option..I know there is on NG tho...

Yeah... when my friend and I played NCAA 08 for PS3... first thing I did was set the controls like they were in current gen.

I hate how they always change the controls, but each year I adjust just so I dont have to change the controller configuration all the time.

They should have an option to let you change the controls for online as well. I'm finding it hard to adjust to the R2 button being the turbo, and not X. And X being stiff arm now. Doesn't make any sense to me as to why they changed it around.

You use the PS2 still? It should be pretty easy. Just go to controller configuration, and just press left or right until it gives you the presets.

Xbox Config

I have Madden 08 for the XBox. I can't change the controller config and it's really screwing up my Defense. Is there an ancient Chinese secret to change it?

Out of luck

I spoke to techs from EA and there is no controller config. for Madden 09. It would be nice if they could put out a patch for that but I'm not holding my breath hopefully they'll correct this in 2010.
