 Madden 08 great game but franchise issues March 16, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Well... I bought madden as soon as it came out, its fantastic in superstar mode, which is why i bought it origanally, however after winning superbowls with my SupStar i thought id turn my hand to franchise, again did great and managed to turn the 49ers from rubbish 4-13 to superbowl winners in 3 seasons, unfortunatley in season 6 preseason the game locks up when training your players, Iv spoken to EA on a number of occasions and they tell me the same thing regarding a new patch (it doesnt work)and im not the only one with the issue just read the EA madden discussion pages. i would wait until 09 to get a madden title and only after seeing if the issues had been resolved. anyway great game if you only wanna be a superstar.
 NFL 08 March 2, 2008
This game, currently is my favourite game on PS3. The Graphics are fantastic, and the new cameras for superstar are great. It is a lot easier on superstar than last time. The only bad point is that on Franchise mode you don't recieve e-mail and can't read the newspaper. Overall it is well worth the money!

Absolutely fantastic game, the graphics are amazingly realistic, and great gameplay. the help it gives you is very useful, and all the game modes are way better than i expected. if anyone has any doubts about American Football then get this game, it will not only teach you how to play, but it will also convince you how great this sport is(i think it's fantastic, and i am English!!!)and how you cannot live without such an amazing extra in your life.
Great fun the game I keep going back to. February 2, 2008

I saw this item only had two reviews and thought how is that possible its probably my favorite game to hit the ps3 so far, It's one of those games I keep going back to if you have the slightest interest in nfl and I didnt before buying this game then you will love this. I bought like 10 games since I had this and I ended up selling them all on because I found myself still playing this even though I had these new games. Definatley recommened for nfl fans and like I said you dont have to be one before buying this but you definatley will be one after. Between this pro evo and skate dont think I need any more games until Gta and Res 5 is out. Try this out though you will love it. Also Hester is the bomb.
Madden is good (as always)...but not great (as it has been). August 31, 2007

Got Madden for the PS3 on import.
Good stuff: Defensive options are better. You can highlight opponent receivers to mark them out of the game. Playing 49ers V Cards I had Nate Clements shut down Fitzgerald with linebacker help. Leading receivers with your passes is a lot easier with use of the left stick. You can also see mismatches on the field helping you identify weaknesses you can exploit.
Bad stuff: You can't design your own plays or make your own playbooks on offense! You can't see what a playbook is going to be in advance so I went into Play Game mode without knowing what I could run which meant the play clock is a killer. It means you have to use practice mode a lot more so you know what you can do with a specific book. Shame really as one of the recent features I've really loved is the playbook and play design, since I like exploiting the middle and the seam with slot receivers and so can create playbooks centered around that tactic. Was ok on the defensive side though cos I always play 3-4 so the books haven't changed much between versions. Also the mismatch view is more based on abilities like if you have a good running back so you always ending up seeing the same mismatch telling you to run the ball. For example, again as the Niners, I was playing a 3 receiver set with Gore in the backfield facing a D playing with two corners. The mismatch view still highlighted Gore as the mismatch even though (logically) Lelie in the slot should the mismatch as he was being covered by a linebacker with safety help.
Playbook design would have made this a 5 starrer for me as graphics and gameplay features are as great as always and most tweaks have added to the title. As it is I'm giving it a four. If you love American Football you have to get this, but I've also got NCAA 08 on import and I've always found that series slightly more challenging. We shall see if that holds true as I haven't tested it out yet.
