Madden is usually the best EA Game. I bought NCAA 08 and Nascar 08 last week and didnt like either, but Madden wont let me down

Best to get it on the 360... I don't get it with EA, though. They're a gigantic company. They have plenty of money for development, there's no reason in the world that the PS3 version shouldn't be at 60fps. It's just not. Very lazy on EA's part.

Which seems to be the tell-tale from EA since they bought the rights to make NFL video games. They've incorporated new features from year to year, but Madden has failed to truly get better as a game over the last three years.

In the end, though, EA is still running a business, and they will still sell a zillion copies wether or not they actually make it better.

Just counting down the seconds until Sega can release another NFL game. Football games are growing stale (again) because of this crap.

Ok, so I went and picked up madden this afternoon as soon as school let out, and at first it completely sucked. Now the more that I play it, I feel like I am playing Madden 07 for the regular xbox, except with the 360 playcall menu. Everything is a little sharper than the xbox version. Also, if anyone ever played NBA live, then you will know what I am talking about when I say they have special icons(not sure if this is the right word to describe this) for good players, such as Peyton is a Rocket passer(rocket), accurate passer (target), and there are many more obviously. Overall, decent game, like I said at first I didn't like anything about it at all, and actually called a few people and asked if they wanted to buy my copy, but the more I play it I guess I will keep it. This game will serve a good backup to NCAA. Decent game, not sure if it is worth forking out $65.84 though.

He saaid gameplay was nice and sharp and so were the graphics. He had same comment as you about the icons like live,

Uh, no. EA Sports makes it a yearly tradition of making NCAA Football a retarded stripped-down version of Madden.

It really depends on who's playing the game. Since i'm more of a college football junkie, i've just never been big that big of a maddennite.
