Madden 09 versions??

I know there are alot of Madden gamer junkies out there. I buy Madden every other year... I can't bring myself to buy it when the enhancements are weak or I am holding out for a version made especially for the next-gen system (and not a crappy port from the old-gen version.)

As for myself, I am a Wii gamer. I don't have the time to get involved in over-complicated games as I work full-time and go to school. Plus, my wife really wanted a Wii, so I wasn't going to fight it when I realized I didn't have to do any work to convince her of why I wanted to buy a new video game system.

The "Call Your Shots" feature on the Wii version is awesome. As awesome as the HD graphics are on the Xbox360 and PS3, it doesn't matter because only the Wii version has this new feature. The Wii interface makes it so easy to use. I am hooked.

How about the rest of you? Which version do you play?

Playstation 3, I sort of suck right now.

For me the difference between ’08 (PS2) and ’09 (PS3) are very large, in terms of gameplay. I think that has more to do with the new system than anything else.

I just started playing a couple days ago, so far it’s a lot of fun (and the career mode seems to be improved) but I suck at it. Just give me a couple weeks with it. :)

360, 1080p all day long

Also – can’t really beat playing over live. Achievements are just icing on the cake.

Anyone else notice how geographically retarded the Qwest field intro is?

Well think about it. Who else in the country even cares what Seattle looks like? It's lame but oh well.

It's lame

but I am certain its something that pisses off every fan. Also, i feel that the surrounding area to Qwest is gorgeous and would have made the stadium/game look better.

Not going to disagree, but again would anyone outside of Seattle care? They just want to put what people will recognize in the game, so they made it how they did.

It’s stupid and annoying, but you can tell why they did it.

And call your shots is amazing

I’m just getting really tired of the celebration dances you have to do.

like they make sense if you're playing against another human being

and you’re gonna rub it in his face with a dance anyway but, srsly c’mon.

PS3

because my online league jumped ship from 360 this year. Everyone got sick of a third of the league having to quit before the season ended because of dead hardware.

If it wasn't for college football I'd probably have given up on sports.

Don't buy it for Wii

It’s terrible.. Very limiting, and just not very fun..

Madden Moments...

Has anyone played through these? I’ve beaten all of them but the Seahawks/Falcons one. I have no problem getting the first TD. Just throw a hail mary. But I can’t for the life of me recover the onside kick. Does anyone know a cheap way to recover an onside?
