Madden NFL 09: First Online Leagues Details and Video Clip

  07:52 PM - April 29, 2008 by Delray
IGN has posted the first online league details for Madden 09, including a video clip of the game in action.

Quote:
"When it comes to sports videogames it doesn't get much bigger than the yearly release of Madden Football. Some complain it's the same game year in and year out, but that doesn't stop droves of pigskin fanatics from lining up outside of their local retailers in hopes of scoring a copy. With the announcement of Brett Favre as the cover athlete for Madden NFL 09 the ball has begun to roll heading toward the game's August release."

You're exactly the reason WHY we have this bullpucky every single year.

"Yes Madden, you are the greatest game ever. Oh look how great the line play is. Oh look, he's backpedaling sideways. This looks just like real life! I'll buy two copies because it's so great"


actually champ go look through my posts from 03-05......you won't find a bigger 2k fanboy than myself

you're the reason why these boards are so dire

Thats why I said that people have a reason and a point to compare the two games.

Never said that you should be content with just one NFL game. What I was saying is that you shouldn't buy Madden just because its the only next gen game if you aren't happy with it.

I never said i couldn't enjoy it, but again its 2008, we want a next gen game. I think its about time don't you?
I found my next gen football game. Hopefully at some point those who haven't found it, will find theirs. There's really nothing else I can say about that. People have different wants/needs.

You are missing my point(thats happening a lot today), I am saying that people shouldn't buy Madden just because its the only next gen football game available. And yes, it sucks that there is no competition. Competition is always a good thing for both consumers and sellers. But at this point in time, this is the hand we are dealt. I mean its either buy it or don't. I don't know what else to say.

Sports games are a whole different thing because sports game are released yearly. At least the major sports and people want to play with their favorite team see'ing their current players in "high definition.
I couldn't agree more. But with the situation the way it is, for those who want to play a football game during football season must decide whether or not, Madden fits the bill. If it does, great. If it doesn't well then, you have to move on to plan B, whatever that may be.

Nobody is blaming you for being upset.

This is a useless feature without a true offseason. Get with the times EA. We could do this already manually with sites like stat-daddy.

Sounds like NCAA is full dynasty online though which will be cool (12 team limit).

I am doing fine Rawdeal.

And I don't play online at all. Not my cup of tea when it comes to sports games. And remember man, some of Madden's biggest critics, are also its biggest fans.
