I like it.
User Rating: 9.1 | Madden NFL 08 X360
Just bought it and I love it. I had totally written EA off this year after feeling burned by the last two versions of Madden for next gen systems. I had made up my mind that if this years version didnt cut it ( meaning I would rent before I bought) then I was finished with the Madden series. But I really like Madden 08. It runs soo much smoother in general than last year's iteration. The music is nice, however the announcer still sucks. Why EA won't fix this is beyond me. They must have signed the guy to a long term contract thru 09. Its almost as if they enjoy having one GLARING drawback. But beyond that, the game moves at a much faster pace, with much tighter controls that are very responsive. This year the hits also feel heavy/solid (meaning, a hit looks and feels like a hit, instead of a mere collision of two objects). I dig the player icons also. I hear much more authentic sounding trash talk as well. At any rate I would highly recommend this game for football lovers. And this comes from someone who was dead set against buying it.
