Horrible

Shouldn't even rent this

They had a good Idea with this game, but the PS3 Version totally sucks.

For one thing you fumble way to much!, even just running and suddenly the ball could pop out!.
Plus the framerate is Horrible, to do a spin there is a 2 second or so delay before you spin., Graphics arent to bad but not as good as the XBOX 360's version.

This game was Rushed for the PS3, It's not even worth renting it.

pros - roster

cons - the whole game

madden 08 is a franchise that should have ended a long time ago, just stop EA, this game is horrible. the hitstick, the graphics the gameplay its all so old, with no future in getting better. this is just the time to end it and start over with a different company and title.

import you character and play the rookie mode if you dare, no matter what your stats say whether 99 in speed or what have you, it just doesnt matter they will catch you just like in blitz actually the whole game feels like blitz except blitz was so much funner to play.

the graphics, you know there are so many things bad about this game that graphics arent a concern.

the movements feel murky and almost have to do a load before the action is perfromed, its not smooth at all.

roster well its madden the game is just an updated roster.

they changed the controls again, choose one set and be done, has stiff arm now been assigned default to every button in this franchise history.

load times still long but we've become so accustumed to them do they think we still dont notice them.

so either play against computer or online because choosing your plays when playing someone at your house, is like telling them the play you are gonna do, no chance for catching them off quard or faking them, unless their asleep and with the load time and the sheer bordom of the game thats not that far-fetched.

i mean obviously this game has the exclusive nfl rights so no competition, so what do they care. if you want a decent or rather a better football experience play ncaa but no nfl roster and its not perfect either just better then madden.

dont buy it!!!!
rent it if your aching for a football game that will last 15 mins.

there is so much wrong with this game theres not enough space.

graphics - 6
gamplay - 3
roster - 9
rookie mode - 2
other modes - 3
multiplayer - 2
online - couldnt stand the gameplay to try
madden franchise - 0

Is this Madden for XBOX?

Sony never ceases to disgust me. I buy a Playstation 3 to have a Playstation 3. Just like last year, they release Madden 08 for PS3 with the button configuration completely different from the normal Playstation line. It IS however, almost EXACTLY like the XBOX version of Madden. Why would they do something like that? If I wanted an XBOX I would have bought one... DO NOT BOTHER renting this game. Rent the Playstation 2 version, same controls as ALWAYS and graphics are very close.
