5.0 out of 5 stars The game I've Been Waiting For, 19 Aug 2008
By Rusty Shackleford (England - somewhere) - See all my reviews
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
It's been a long time since the heady days of ESPN Football 2k5, and Madden has lagged since that great game, especially on the xbox 360. However now Madden has retaken its throne as the best NFL game ever.

For one thing we have real commentary, which for some stupid reason has been omitted in previous 360 incarnations. The commentary is both atmospheric and great at teaching you some of the subtleties of the game.

Next the graphics seem to have improved drastically. Different famous NFL players actually look different in this game. Also there is some sweet animation at the beginning of each game which shows the outside of the stadium, which again adds tons of atmosphere.

You can finally have all 11 of your players be displayed as weapons, which is great if you spend your time grinding through mini-games to improve your players; as you will see them on the pitch.

There are a few small points to nit-pick, but there is no point, because overall this game is great. If you are a series fan: buy it!

And last but not least, Raiders for the Superbowl!!!

4.0 out of 5 stars The traditional small step forward, complete with a new focus on rookies, 11 Mar 2009
Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 
Here EA deliver the most accessible version of Madden yet. Basically the same engine as '08 with a few nice additions, the real value comes in a focus on the new player, with reasonably intelligent tutorials and a real time IQ that alters according to your skill level. If you're new to the franchise, this is the version to start with - it's never been so open to rookies.

So what are the negatives? Obviously if you don't like American Football, or don't have at least a basic understanding of the rules, you're going to have a tough time. But if you're buying this game, this probably isn't going to apply to you. The music can be annoying - it's a combination of pointless nu-metal and the standard awful hip-hop. Fortunately there's an option to get rid of the songs track by track, which is a welcome addition. And the new 'superstar' mode could use some work... personally I don't much see the point in controlling your superstar as he does bench presses or 60 yard dashes. Some will appreciate the addition - it's not something that has any interest for me.

So in summary, best Madden yet? Probably. Certainly the most accessible for the casual player.

IMPORTANT : - You'll see some other reviewers complain about 'freezes'. It's important to understand that without exception this is down to their respective boxes. Despite what some have said, this is not an issue with the game, per se. Some games, for a variety of reasons, push your box a little harder, or in different ways, and the build quality of the 360 is famously as variable as it gets. On my machine it plays perfectly.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good enough, but....., 8 Mar 2009
By Mr. Gideon G. Beddows "better to be dead and ... (Rugeley, Staffordshire. England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Fun:3.0 out of 5 stars 
If you are new to the Madden Series and have always fancied an American Football game, then i suggest you get this. Its excellent.

BUT

If you have Madden 08, 07, 06 etc etc and arnt that bothered about having the lastest players in the right teams with the right Head Coaches etc etc then, stay clear.

I dont think that there is enough difference to warrent shelling out your cash.

The Yanks got the 20th Anniversary Version which came with the Original Sega Mega drive version + NFL Coaches club which allows you to create your own play book.

I think that 09 should have been bundled with theses too, as i want to create my own plays (sad, i know) , but i could do it on the '05 version on the PS2, so why not on the 2009 version on the Xbox??

Still.....its a good game. Just now enough new stuff in it for me.
