Re: **Official Madden 08 Thread**
[ QUOTE ]
Fumbled on the first kickoff of my first game 4 turnovers total do I suck or are there just way too many fumbles this year. Playing as Dallas. [/ QUOTE ] There are a lot more turnovers then previous games atleast on All-Pro. I played about 3 quarters and I think there were atleast 6 or 7 turnovers. It's very nice looking but those settings might to be adjusted, or maybe we just all need to re-adjust to the new system.

Re: **Official Madden 08 Thread**
Picked up my copy at lunch, but am stuck at work so I can't play it yet.
I had an issue with the number of turnovers in NCAA 08 as well- turned the INT ratings way down, but still get a fair number of fumbles. Anyone play both to compare? Any exported a draft class from NCAA to Madden yet? Really looking forward to that- have never owned the same versions before =)

Re: **Official Madden 08 Thread**
If it's like NCAA, you're screwed, that game is interception/fumble city, with very little you can do to fix it. I'm convinced that EA doesn't know what a real live game of football is. I'd be interested to see how often they actually break down film and compare it side by side to their games to see if their AI reacts at all like a real football player, or whether they just play the game all day long and grow accustomed to that being real football.

Re: **Official Madden 08 Thread**
Just improved my online record to 1-0 [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
Holy [censored] that was a close ass game. We ended the first half 3 zip. (I had the FG). Started off the first play of the 2nd half with a TD to Rannndy Moss. Ended up going up 24 to 10 by the 4th. He kept doing this queer long bomb with Grossman to Muhammad and got a quick TD. Then I fumbled the [censored] kickoff and he ran it back for a TD. 23-24. He goes for two and I stopped him for a loss with 45 seconds left, game over. Oh wait - it's the Madden [censored]! Offsides! He gets another try, makes the 2pc like a douche, takes the lead by one point. 45 seconds left I hit moss up again and do damage in the redzone with Maroney, score the FG with 5 seconds left and resteal the game 27 - 25. Booya. Madden is sweet. There were a [censored] of turnovers in the first half though. Fumbles are so frustrating.

Re: **Official Madden 08 Thread**
On some Wii-Madden boards it's close to a riot on how "THIS IS TEH WURST MADDEN EVAR! THE GLITTCHES>ME!!!!". Haven't seen any yet.
It seems you don't play as just yourself in Wii's Superstar Mode. At least in preseason, so I might not play that mode now.

It's good. I'm not blown away, but I'll keep playing it.

Re: **Official Madden 08 Thread**
Regular Xbox version:
I started a franchise, and simulated through the preseason ldo, I viewed my progression and almost all of my players decreased by like 4 awareness. I restarted like 4 times and the same thing happened, same players, same stats decreased, wtf?

[ QUOTE ] Got it at midnight, and I'm not really impressed. It's the same thing it's been for three straight years now. I play nothing but Franchise Mode, and it hasn't changed a bit (the updated rosters are nice, but that's it). Player trades are still horribly overpriced, and they still haven't updated pick trading to line up with the pick value chart (someone just dealt the 1-8 and 3-8 for the 1-1, but I can barely move up to the 1-23 when I package the 1-25, 3-25, and 5-25 together). Other FM problems: corners are still super easy to grow from sixth round picks to 99's in like three seasons...every [censored] offensive lineman, defensive lineman, and cornerback is rated between 80 and 95...they still force you to go dollar-by-dollar when upping your offer to a free agent (seriously, it takes me five minutes to make a good offer because I have to move the thing $4 million to the right)...free agents still want ridiculous salaries, even during the season when they have no job...MLB's make a lot of money, but OLB's make very little...safeties are ridiculously underpaid, and DT's are ridiculously overpaid...UFA's get paid more than 6th and 7th round draft picks...it is almost impossible to grow a second day QB into a starter...the list goes on and on. This might be my last year of buying the new game. (Also, I'm terrible on defense, and I can still beat the [censored] out of the computer on everything but All-Madden. That's really the only challenging level, IMO, if you actually have a football mind and aren't just picking random plays.) [/ QUOTE ] What system? [/ QUOTE ] PS2 (I'm cheap). Also, is anyone noticing the ridiculous lag at some screens? I can't check injuries without it going slooooooooow.
