Overall, great progression from 07


MUCH better then last year's attempt on the 360. There are too many fumbles, however, I understand that they're trying to get you to cover up the ball and not just hold down the turbo and juke all the time... but still. Also, way too many injuries in a game. I play in a league and looks like we've voted to play with injuries off.... which is good b/c it's out of control.

The game's still not perfect, but it likely won't ever be... otherwise, why would we spend $60 again next year... but I definitely like it. They completely tweaked the gameplay. Hopefully next year they'll do something about the awful presentation...

I agree the announcing sucks.

^ Not only the announcing, but the presentation overall sucks. There are little to no stat overlays, no drive summaries after you score, nothing. Sure, you get the Under Armor Red Zone stats when you get inside the 20, but that's about it. Gameplay and graphics are definitely next-gen, but the Genesis versions had better presentation. The reactions of the crowd also needs to be tweaked. They should get the team that did the crowd on NCAA to do Madden.

hmm, anyone play in a PS3 league?


I don't run into a lot of fumbles or injuries. It's interceptions....on both sides too, i finished my first season and two of my players have 14+ interceptions
