Better than last year, but still frustrating when it screws up
User Rating: 9 | Madden NFL 09 X360
Well game feels looks and plays better than last year. hot route works solid along with audibles. things that are still messed up. guys running their routes will just get caught up on groups of people and just keep running into them causing them to screw up the route or timing. which makes you loose so many passes that would have been wide open if it just ran around them. this gets real upsetting when your online going for a 1st down and it rips you off. online most of the time is smooth and doesn't lag much. sometimes its unbearable though. then should also change the mercy rule to 14 instead of 28. i hate when people just quit out of games 1st 2nd quarter. then you have to play comp. i didn't want to play the comp thats why i'm on live. also if tom brady is hurt people shouldnt be able to play as him on xboxlive til he isn't hurt. isn't that what the roster update is for. another problem is after a play is done it won't let you just go right to play screen. it sits for 5 seconds not letting you do anything while the clock is running, which is gay. i still give it a 9 after all this bashing because its madden. its still dank as hell but it just needs the small stuff fixed.
