Madden still sees 2K as a competitor even though the games might be wildly different.

The year APF2K8 came out, both games had abilities or player weapons. Did Madden have that idea all along or did they hear some rumblings about 2K’s new game and decided to counter and put it into their game as well. Who knows, but it does tell me both companies pay attention to what the other is doing regardless if the game is the same or not.
