We understand that until the game of football evolves (perhaps with the addition of mutants), it's going to be hard for EA to find new facets to add in to Madden. So we're not mad at them for the inclusion of User-Controlled Celebrations to the '09 edition of the game. Now, when you want to celebrate reaching the end zone, you need only press a button and the party of one will begin. Also, players who are known for their celebrations will have them modeled in the game.
Though we can't help but be saddened that the feature comes too late for us to feel the rush of having the Ickey Shuffle at our fingertips, we can't wait to see how many they cook up for Chad Johnson, who once built a working spacecraft on the field and filled it with nuclear weapons before flying it into and destroying the moon to mark his achievement. The craziest part? He had just gotten a first down.
