This is the Game weve been waiting for. or is it?...
Game starts by making you do a virtual reality Madden Test. This was really fun... but it also showed what to expect from a Flawed defensive game... Well the new "my skill" is really awesome. I can happily have any of my friends over, and have a competitive game. The games Menu's feel like a refurbished Madden 08... but honestly i can careless about menu's, lets go to Game play.
Graphics are above par. Simply said this game looks great... Animations have gotten so much better,You can be half way to the ground and Stiff arm (X) and your player will still be trying to release of the tackle and the best part is, he does. The controls are free. If you feel it you can do it. OFFENSE!! Now the reason i was frustrated. DEFENSE. Camera angles, ridiculous missed tackles, Drop int's when they hit u square in the hands, all continue to b frustrating part of madden. With that said I love how the Screen shakes when you lay a solid hit... Problem is getting an angle to lay that hit... Madden 09 offensive play with madden 05 defense???? o0o0 to DREAM!...
The play by play calling is pretty good, though it gets boring i think the best part is when they show you what u did wrong and how u can beat it next time.
Pretty much everything else is worthless in this game. Superstar and Franchise are the same as they've always been. and the new rewind system? Is Garbage. Just a new thing added for noobs! Online gaming is a non stop lag on the ps3, so that pretty much goes out the window.
Overall You will enjoy this madden, just give it some time to get used to.
