Much Improved

User Rating: 8.4 | Madden NFL 07 DS
Ok, so first of all, I have only previously owned Madden 05 for the DS. I had alot of fun with that game, but all in all, there wasn't enough to keep me entertained, and the graphics were pretty lame. But Madden 07 for the DS is much much better in my opinion.

Gameplay: The controls are easy, except it takes some getting used to the kicking if you haven't done it before. You have the option to pass using the stylus, but I find it much less usefull, because it is dificult and in acurate. The running is pretty smooth, and it's fairly easy to spin around blockers, but juking is not suggested. If you push L or R, your runner pauses at first, and then makes a burst in the direction you want. The delay is so late that it is almost pointless to use.

Graphics: The graphics in this game are alot better than 05, but the characters are still unusual looking, and the ball is bigger than their heads. The stadiums look nice however, it gives a more realistic feel than before.

Extras: I really like how it has a training camp, if you are struggling during games, just go to the camp, and work on what you need help with. There is a create a team, and play mode, they are nice to be there, but aren't that great. Franchise mode isn't exactly what I expected it to be, it's pretty much just a season, but you can watch coach stats, and things like that.

All in all I like this game, if you are a football fan, but don't have as much time to play at home, Madden 07 is very nice to have on the DS.
