I have refused to buy Madden since 2005. It's a sacrifice yes, but it's for a good cause.

I mean what other choice do we all have? EA has the license to the nfl . So it's bacsially the only football game out there. I'm a huge football fan, and it seems like no matter how bad or how good madden is year after year. I always get it on day one. but So far so good. it's a pretty decent game. The gameplay need to fix some of the missing things. but it's a solid football game. unless you can to load up the nfl 2k5 from 3 years ago to play hehe. ever since madden made it's game to the next gen. this is probly what i would call the true next gen. After they fooled us with the pre renderd madden goodness lol.

so far 4 people have voted that this game is boring, so its not worth it for me to buy it? i just have 45$ laying around and my friend is selling his copy for 45$ so i was thinking about buying it, i wouldnt spend 65$ on this one but yea, is it worth getting or its not fun? i like playing football in real life, sometimes watching football on TV in HD but im not like a die hard football fan , i like NBA and FIFA more.

It's a good game. I think its the best in the nextgen cosole and a mojor improvement from 08. Plus those deep balls and running wont be as easy as the other versions. Don't buy into all that ea extra features and hype. Not all Them seem too exiting.

I voted no, but I don't think it's boring. I just have other games to buy. If I see it cheap later on I might pick it up.

i think its worth it if you dont have Madden 07 or 08 considering 06-09 is practically the same game with alittle tweeking and extras added each year. 06 was the last one a bought and it was a used copy. I love Madden ive been playing sinse 91' but i refuse to shell out $65 every year for the same game just with a different year on it. but i mentioned it to my gf and she suprised me with it, it looks good and plays good but still has noticable glitches and flaws. i wouldnt spend my money on it but i wont stop somone else from spending their money and gettin it for me.

I don't care too much about Madden but if you love football I'd get it.

FIFA is more my thing. I plan to buy FIFA09 and NHL09

I would not purchase it. I got my copy from Gamefly and I am already sending it back on Monday. I have been playing Madden since it's origin on the Genesis, so I know how good (and bad) this series can be. The problem with Madden is not that it's a BAD game every year, it just that EA does very little to justify charging you another $60 as the 'improvements' they add each year are ususally very minor or they actually make the game worse (cone-vision passing was horrid). I would save your money and just borrow the game from a friend or rent it.

ive been getting them at around 3-4 year intervuls since 95 and i have to say that when i played this one something about it just seemed right. i dont know if it was the xbox controller or the new graphics or what but i liked it alot more then any madden ive ever had.

but i also gotta say that new football games not being allowed to use the nfl is kinda annoying. not that madden is bad, but i think the evolutionary tackling in backbreaker is the thing of the future

Exactly. I've been one of those suckers who has bought Madden every year for several years now, but this is the first year since the 360's launch that I haven't regretted the purchase. As someone earlier stated, the weather effects are amazing. I was playing a game at Arrowhead in the rain last night, and I was floored by the way all the jerseys gradually got muddy. And the best part is that the game is smart enough to have your second and third string players, or anyone else who hasn't been on the field yet, in clean jerseys for the first few plays while they're on the field!

Major thumbs up to Madden this year.

09 is a good game, so is 08, but 09 is better, anything before that on 360 sucks
