Re: **Official Madden 08 Thread**
Was playing on the PS3 last night and ran into a few problems, hoping someone here had an answer. My friends and I have a "super league" where the entire league's best player are condensed on 5 total team, we used to do this with the create-a-team option - problem with this year is once you have made your create-a-team it doesn't look like there is anyway to alter/edit the team/roster. So if anyone uses the create-a-team option, ya know of anyway to edit a made up team after you already have saved one?
In an attempt to get around this first problem we tried putting our super teams together on an actual NFL team but quickly ran into issues as we could not find a way to turn off the salary cap, so anyone know how to turn the cap off so you can make really, really good teams? |

Re: **Official Madden 08 Thread**
I played it for about 5 minutes last night, and my initial reaction is that it's not much different from the previous year. I'll give it time though..
fwiw- the introduction rocks!! (when you first turn the game on that is) |

Re: **Official Madden 08 Thread**
umm this game is so much more improvement over the past years,
the sad thing is that it just barely passed the NFL 2k5 from 2 years ago as far as game play goes [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] |

Re: **Official Madden 08 Thread**
Wii: Finally played online. I went with CHI, he went with SD. Online had almost no lag (I'm using a DSL turned wireless). Game was good, I was up 14-10 with 7 of that being a Hester 97 yards KR. HE d/ced or quit at the end of the 2nd 14-10. (Maybe mad he didn't call time in FG range, he had more than enough time to call it.)
Main problems were sometimes had to kick 3 times for a kick to register. The other problem was 7 turnovers, he threw 4 picks and I fumbled 3 of them! Still need to get the hang of FGs and passing, but I think it's a very good game. |

Re: **Official Madden 08 Thread**
I bought a Wii the other day, but I haven't opened the Madden I bought today, because I want to make sure of something.
For all you Madden 08 WII people, can I play the game with the Wii Classic Controller I bought, or do you have to use two different controllers? Thanks! |

Re: **Official Madden 08 Thread**
Any updates on adjusting turnover rates? Does it work?

Re: **Official Madden 08 Thread**
There are still some major issues to address in the game. A franchise this large, it is pretty amazing that they continue to make the same oversights every year.
The entire special teams is a joke. I played the Bears, and several times I kick to Devin Hester and he knees it, WTF? I mean, obv I don't want him running on me, but it's pretty silly to see Devin Hester get a clear field in front of him and knee the ball. Also the kickoffs, if you get a full bar kick it will always go out of the endzone or get a knee. The entire kickoff system is pretty unrealistic. Also, is it just me or has fumbling gone up like 200% this year? If you perform any sort of joystick move you seem to be at a pretty huge risk. I have found the best strategy with running is just to hold turbo and jam it. Also, when will Madden let players create online leagues and compete with franchises on XBOX Live? That would be so sick. Oh yeah, the gameplay and graphics are pretty top notch. Easily the best madden overall in years. |
