Madden NFL 09 Updated Impressions: GameSpot

[ewto16]

GameSpot has posted their updated impressions of Madden NFL 09

Quote:

"A common theme from EA's Season Opener event was the ability to customize the gaming experience in this year's crop of games based on your skill level. In no game is this more true than in Madden 09."

I'm thrilled to hear that in-game saves are back!!! That is the first feature that has significantly increased the chance that I'll buy this version.

I'm happy about that too but even more happy about this:

"Revamped Sim Engine: The simulation engine in Madden 09 has been reworked to produce more-realistic results in franchise mode. Gone are the days of multiple 2,000-yard rushers in a single season, and simulation score results will more accurately mimic scores in the NFL."

excited to hear that they have worked on the sim engine.

Also glad to have in-game saves back.

Yah man in game saves will definatly make me 100% more likely to buy this game. I havent really played madden since i had madden 06 for xbox with in game saves.
I think all sports games should have in game saves, because it makes it more easier to complete an actual season of say ex. 16 games, but really you played 24 because you had to resart one over and over cuz you didnt have time to complete the game originally.

I thought NCAA was going to be my only FB game this year, but damn if EA has not got me looking at spending more money on them

I didn't see custom soundtracks in there unless I missed it. You would think with as much info as they released we would have heard if it was in there. Looks like no adding in go pack go
