[QUOTE="too_much_eslim"][QUOTE="too_much_eslim"]whats this call your shot mode? How is it any different from hot routes.Firelore29

You press a button right before the snap and it zooms out of the field. Then you click on a wide receiver and draw the route he will run. You can routes for each of your players then run the play. Check out the first video shown on the IGN review:

http://wii.ign.com/articles/897/897601p1.html

so it is no different than hot routes except that you can be a little more creative. Nothing special or innovative then. Don't see how that feature makes it better.

Ok seriously man I can understand that you are going to buy the 360 or PS3 version and your trying to defend your purchase but honestly... look at that. "Nothing special or innovative"? ....wow...

is this your first time playing madden? It has to be because it is no differewnt than hot routes.

Ok I'm done posting to you because you simply can't accept the fact that your wrong. I've played every Madden in years and I know all about hot routes. This is nothing like hot routes. Read the IGN review Bozon even said that he played an entire game changing virtually every play as he went.

Much like how you are defending your purchase to us by proclaiming the Wii version better without having even played it, based entirely on the opinion of a biased journalist at IGN?

Touche. I just said that to get posts. ;) As it stands hardly anyone realizes that this new Wii version offers something completely different as this thread proves.

Offering something "different" doesn't automatically make it worthwhile or noteworthy. Different does not equate to better, and neither does "innovative". (innovation is more commonplace than most people here make it out to be)

I would agree that different does not always equte to better and neither does innovative. However when reports come back saying that new and innovative does add a lot to the gameplay experience then yes it makes it better.

Well, Madden 07 Wii was the best version that year, so I don't see how your argument is valid at all.

Didn't the Wii version come out months after the other console versions?

so its official...PC gamers are no longer allowed to claim the PC version is superior when it comes out months later.

Nintendo Power gave Madden 09' a 9. Before people scream "BIAS!", they gave 07' an 8.5 and 08' an 8.

Looks like this will be the best on yet.

[QUOTE="AlphaGamer469"] Has anyone seen the coverart for the Wii version vs the 360/PS3 versions? On the PS3/360 Favre is doing an action pose like throwing a pass. On the Wii cover, he looks puzzled, almost like he has to use the bathroom. Sorry, but the Wii will be by far the more casualized version. Most of the enhancements will be on the 360/PS3 versions. I'm willing to bet the PS3/360 versions will have an imediate roster update...bobbetybob

Never judge a game by it's cover?

You never get a second chance to make a first impression?

But that's Nintendo Power. They don't review the other consoles. Let's see how the scores add up on multiplat gaming sites (such as right here at GS).

I'd probably in all honesty rather play the Xbox 1 version than the Wii version. It probably looks and controls better

i'm just messing around...i was just arguing with the above post that suggested that because something comes out a little later, its not good.

Yes, and don't games that come out latter on another system (ex. Halo on PC) usually get a lower score?

So Wii Madden 07 must have been really good.

Nickman71

Not necessarily, it really depends how much later the game is released, and in which the console it is released on. Wii has much, much lower standards than the PC, Xbox 360 and PS3. The Wii version was months late; but because of this, the developers had more time to add things that weren't in the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions, and more polish time to remove certain technical problems which sometimes plagued the Xbox 360 version. If you look at the reviews, the only thing that is different is "Tilt" due to the problems that are on the Xbox 360 version can hamper the experiece. I'm sure if the developers had more time - the two versions would have scored the same.

And Mass Effect came out later and received a higher score (Though one could argue the Xbox 360 review was botched in the first place).

so its official...PC gamers are no longer allowed to claim the PC version is superior when it comes out months later.

Does the PC have anything to do with this, laddy? No. What a pathetic flamebait.

Funny, the entire defense of the Wii as a system revolves around its sales success. Good to know people are finally beginning to realize commercial success doesn't equal quality.

subrosian

No, The Wii version was the 3rd best selling version, the First and Second place were taken by the 360 and DS respectively.

There is no feature that the Wii is capable of adding that other systems are not - however the 360 & PS3 version can have sound (discrete surround)

subrosian

How does surround sound affect gameplay in a sports game? Please elaborate, you DO know the Wii is capable of displaying sound right? lol.

graphics (720p+)

subrosian

I'll give you the graphics argument.

, online (real infrastructure vs. friends codes), multiplayer (greater system power and online capabilities),

subrosian

Third party and, in some cases, first party developers can have their own online system and looking back on previous versions, EA hosts their own games(MOH: H2, Madden 07/08, etc) and they turn out to be the exact same thing on all other versions, without friend codes that is. And What does "system power" have to do with multiplayer? We all know the TG-16 had up to 5 players on a single system which means, by your logic, that it's more powerful than a 360 and a Ps3 because it has more "system power" for multiplayer.

add-on content (hard drives vs memory cards, and again online infrastructure) and features (system power) that the Wii version is incapable of.

subrosian

Again, Nintendo isn't forcing developers to take out downloadable content in the Wii version of their games, all they have to do it code the game to save on SD cards, like Guitar Hero World Tour and Rock Band 2 will, and yes I'm talking about the Wii version. And "memory cards", as you call them can go up to 32 GB each nowadays, SD's write much faster than HD's and are non-volatile, which means there aren't moving parts that can wear down or easily break on against shock. So hard drives < "memory cards".

I ask AGAIN, what kind of features the 360 adn PS3 version will have that cannot be done on the Wii because of "system power".

I don't know which is worse: that the game sucks anyway or that the Wii version will be even worse than the others.

This thread is bookmarked for future ownage. The Wii version will be just as good, if not better than the PS3/Xbox360 version.

Did I EVER say that games which are released later are worse? No. Don't twist what I say - you attempted to bring the PC into this in which it has nothing to do with it. My personal gaming preferences do not matter in this discussion.

in your original quote you implied it. a previous poster had mentioned that Madden '07 was the best version. you responded by shutting the comment down, stating that it had come out after the other console iterations. its certainly easy to infer that response as an assault on the Wii version.

Implied it? Oh brother. :roll: I already stated my reason why it scored higher. Whether or not you believe otherwise in not my concern. Don't attack one's personal gaming preferences, or twist what people say.

keep telling yourself that...your posting history more than shows your hatred for all things Wii. you're not fooling anyone.
