User Rating: 8 | Madden NFL 07 X360
Let me start off by saying that this is the first madden i have purchased since 2002, and the first football game i bought since 2k5. I am going to college in a week, and i wanted a game i could play with a few people in my dorm. unfortunatly, in that respect, i can only play 1 on 1, since EA took out any cooperative play. The graphics in this game are incredible. aside from their freakish monkey arms, the player models look pretty good as well. player animations are fluid and look really nice. the atmosphere created by the fully 3D crowds and ambient noise is really pretty cool. the only problem is the ESPN Radio announcers. i hate how they made it sound like you are listening to the game while driving through the lincoln tunnel. The only part of the game that really matters in the long run is the gameplay, and on that front, this game is slightly above average. the defensive AI is great on the first 2 downs, but always, and i mean always, gives up a long 3rd down play, causing another 1st down. i have only been playing superstar mode lately, and it really is awesome. my superstar is a WR, so, on offense, all i do is run my routes and hope the ball comes my way. at the end of hte day, this game is fine for any football fan, just don't expect too much from it.
