Great Game   03/12/2008
By raylew52

What's great about it: MAny
What's not so great: Few

"PLay With Friend: 10
Franchise : 9
Superstar : 8
Online : 9.5
Graphics : 9

Overall, a great game. Superstar is a little tough to get going becuase the drills aren't easy, online occaisonally freezes, but rarely, great franchise mode, only real criticism is if you lob up a pass that requires the WR to use a little AI and come off his route, only the CB does and its an easy pick. And also, someone might want to tell the game designers that CBs can catch the ball

Good Game   02/28/2008
By Dexter from IL

What's great about it: Graphics, Options, Gameplay
What's not so great: Not much different than '07

"As usual this Madden is a great game and is fun to play. A few changes to help make it a little smoother overall, but not necessarily enough that makes you "have" to get it if you have '07. Overall it's a good game and I recommend it, whether you're a die-hard Madden fan or not."

Fairly good   02/19/2008
By Greg12548741

What's great about it: Everything but throwing
What's not so great: Throwing

"It is a very good game but it is not the best Madden ever. I don't like it because once you try to pass to a person he almost has to be wide open. This is because almost every time you throw a deep ball it's almost always picked off."

Worth Every Penny!!!   02/12/2008
By mirvous from washington, dc

What's great about it: if linked to live, the boards show current advertisements while playing on the field
What's not so great: there are none!!

"This game is perfect for playing against a friend pre-gaming to watch sunday or monday night football. The live extension gives the extra feel of playing in a real stadium. The effects and plays are current and its a great way to show your pride for your favorite football team!"

Way Better than 07   02/10/2008
By Matrix83 from Fort Worth, TX

What's great about it: new feature allows you to read your players better
What's not so great: you have to know EXACTLY what you're doing

"I like being able to play online with this game and I actually just found the headset so that I can talk to people while I'm playing instead of just listening to everyone else!"

What's great about it: loads fast,graphics are best yet,realistic.

The Best Madden On Next Gen Systems   01/18/2008
By Throwdown918 from New Jersey, NJ

"I gave this game a five just because of how much better it is compared to 06 and 07. Going back to the old Playstation 2 versions of Madden this is the first next gen attempt that can actually hold it's own. You can create and edit players again, and you can actually change your players numbers if you want. So no more weird numbers for your players anymore. It is amazing that it took EA three attempts to finally get all of these small, but important updates into this game. I had heard that the game had a lot of flaws upon release, but buying the game now I have an update that downloaded and the game has played fine. If you do not have the ability to update the game, I would be wary as the issues sound like they are pretty widespread. Also though the newer game discs may contain the update, but I wouldn't take my chances. If you are a fan of Madden and are looking for the best NFL next gen game this is finally the one. A must have for Madden players who have been struggling with the previous lack luster next gen attempts."

Comparitively better to the older versions.   01/17/2008
By RatingSpartan from Maryland

What's great about it: Smooth, Stats actually have a bigger effect that older games.
What's not so great: Sports games, Not my thing.

"You like football? Get this game if you do because only this game will satisfy your need for the football passion you have off season or during the season. What I can say about this game is that if you dont like football or do not know much about it you should not get this game. For those of you getting into football this is a good game to teach you how to play and how to enjoy the sport for what its worth.
~Enjoy

Same Madden   01/16/2008
By Nikolai from Schaumburg, IL

What's great about it: Great graphics, slightly different gameplay elements
What's not so great: Give me something more

"I think it's safe to say that I need a break from Madden, because it does become a bit too repetitive year after year. This installment is great, don't get me wrong, and I would recommend it to any Madden fan."

Nice Football Game   01/09/2008
By Anonymous

What's great about it: Graphics, Depth, Realizm
What's not so great: Marc Bulger is actually healthy in it.

"This is a sweet game, complete with probably the most in depth research on the players to date. It is getting harder to dominate on these newer games, they come with better ai every year. Buy it!"
