Have been playing 08 for the past few days.

Am English, so have only a passing familiarity with the game in real life. I know the basic rules etc but wouldn't be completely aufait.

First played Madden on the Xbox 360 and loved it. There's something that gives you a pleasure tingle when you complete a decent pass.

It was a bit too simplified on the DS, but I passed some time on it.

I've only had my Wii for a fortnight, so it could still be just the novelty, but the extra hand motions etc involved I find captivate me greatly.

I couldn't sit down and play a season - it would bore the shite out of me. It's a great game for killing 20 mins before going out or whatever, though.

Would I buy it ? I might, but I'd wait for 09 to come out then get 08 cheap 2nd hand.

Peace,

e) Don't buy or rent.

jk, just rent the game, and if you like it, buy it or adquire it through... "illegal ways"...

 

I think 09 will be one of tehr better ones, but where do they go after this one, how many more maddens do we need, do we really need one every year.

 

Fianlly a game that i really only want to play on the wii
