Hes hit and BOOM!
User Rating: 6.8 | Madden NFL 06 X360
Much like the saying, Madden o6 is a big step back if you are used to the current gen edition. Now create-a-plaer, team, play, and mini camp modes. The franchise mode also got slapped back to the stoneage. This version is the bare-bones how the hell is it $60 edition. There is also an obscence of being able to challenge which really blows becuase it is definatly needed in this game! The ballspoting is horrible, in the NFL, the ball is spotted to the farthest spot the ball HAS been not where its spotted where it lands! A lot of the same animations get repeated as well despite EA saying they have created a plethora of new ones. I also sadly miss Madden's obvious comentary to make me laugh and instead your stuck with some Joe Smoe. Despite all the bad, the game does look and sound great and features some good presentation for what it has. The stadiums also look really nice and the crowd finally looks believable! If your new to the series as well, the game to me feels easier and passes are usually caught pretty easily on the default settings. I also like how some of the league's top players look exaclty like their counterparts. Sadly, the ones who are nobodys still look way off which stinks and numerous coaches aren't even in the game (Dallas and New England, etc) Overall, this game is no way worth the $60 and you should wait for next year's edition to see if they bring back all the missing modes that were so key to the current editions. Take it from me and don't blow the $60, if you want to play it, rent it!
