Overall: What can you say, its Madden. Madden is Madden and Football is Football. The game is great but also needs alot of work. I will explain more if you keep reading. Gameplay: The gameplay when your facing the CPU is a bit slow, but at least its not like that when ur during the middle of your play. I often lose connection or the person I'm playing loses connection during an Xbox Live game. And honestly who would want to play the game on live if you don't know if your even going to finish it. Superstar mode is awesome. At first I didn't like the vision but once you start playing, you get used to it. I also like the new lead blocker controls, because sometimes the AI just doesn't cut it. Another thing I hate, the kicking. Go back to using the buttons, its like impossible to make a 45 yard field goal no matter who you are. Graphics: The graphics are great. The game is so indepth when it comes to graphics. Wrinkles in clothing, scrapes on helmets, dirty clothing, the field gets tore up (especially when its pouring the rain), but all the players look the same. And some people like Charlie Frye (starting QB for Cleveland Browns) looks way too muscular. Charlie is not that muscular in person. The shadows move from play to play and make the game very realistic. Sound: The sound is great. I love how the players talk during gameplay and make remarks to other players after making a good play. Suggestions: I suggest you work on the Xbox Live. I would like to play people and not lose connection. I don't lose connection all the time, but most of the time I do, and I never do that with any other game. I would also like the kicking part of the game to go back to the old way. It was much better that way. I also want the gameplay to not be so slow.
Overall: Madden 07 needs no description. Not because it's that good but because it's the same offering as last year, with a few tweaks, adjustments, and attempts at adding something new. It's football and if you need me to describe football to you then I suggest you go back out with your sister and finish your hopscotch and double dutch marathon. Gameplay: The gameplay is football of course. And it is not that bad on the 360. However, it's not that good either. It's not that the game sucks, it's just that it seems too slow, the offensive moves take too long, the defense is suspect to the deep ball, it's better than last year but is still lacking. The new animations are cool however you don't get to enjoy them much. The hit stick is unresponsive at times and the AI can do some very questionable things on the field. Simply put there is room for a lot of improvement here. Last but definitely not least is the minigames. I hate the 40, and the bench press. They have to do better than that. The best I ran in the forty was a 4.6. And I don't know how I did it. Please EA fix that. Graphics: The game is gorgeous. It is even prettier than last years. My only complaint is the player faces all look the same. Eli does not look that hard EA. Sound: The sounds are great except for one thing. No Madden during the game. That is straight butt. I use the Madden pick feature just to hear his voice. Terrible EA just terrible. Suggestions: Tighten up the gameplay. Get Madden back in the game. Michaels too. The Ugly truth: the only reason I still have it is because my son likes it.
Overall: its your basic football game. now that ea owns teh liscence its madden. Gameplay: its a real good game with all the same flaws as the other games from past years. the only real problem i have with it is some of the player are really unrealistic. like even reggie bush couldnt break through an NFL mob for a run back touchdown. this isnt college. and the defense ai is terrible. sometimes my guys will run right past the ball carrier when they are right next to them. some of the controls are real weird. the best part is creating your own superstar. you cant just bump all his stats up to as high as you want them. Graphics: the arenas are great. the crowd looks more alive but everyone knows that not every team sells out every game. sometimes the camera pans through the crowd and the collision detection for the camera on that stuff bites. the players faces look nothing like them but i guess you cant tell with helmets on. the coaches are spot on. Sound: the sounds are always good. you here crunching and you wonder if its bone or plastic pads. its usually what brigs a game all together. and its great in this one Suggestions: fix the weak ai. i get mad when i get through to o line just to have my guy run straight past vick when he is actually standing still. it doesnt happen often but when it does i would really like to just lay him out. and fix the camera problems.
Overall: Its one heck of a good game i swear the graphics 10 the real life conditions the realistic crowd the animations that are in the gameplay this game just kicks butt i give it a 5.0
Gameplay: i think it was really nice how they put live audibles in the gameplay really nice very nice and the facial details on the players Graphics: what they did with the graphics just utterly "PwnsU" i was in awe once i got this game i fell in love i was a addict from day one and belive me im not letting go for a long time play all pro so no hard feelings to the people who play rookie or pro. But i do give props to the people that play all madden. tried it once but i got my butt kicked 5.0 for this one Sound: sounds were kinda iffy this one was border 5.0 and 4.5 to repettetive i didnt like it that much because you know it gets old once you hear Me number one all day non stop from the players at least... 10 times Suggestions: Nope got nothing
