Madden 07 looks sick as fuck...
 

they just had a special half hour program on fox sports showing all the new features and shit. it comes out august 22nd...can't wait...

oh, and this one finally has old school players that you can unlock and put on any team! payton, barry sanders, tons more...all the legends...

Nice! The veteran players/legends option is key! I'll definitely check it out

Hopefully they dont butcher it like 06

I can't wait for this game to come out. What were some of the new features?

lots of new mini-games. like when you create your own player...i think they said you can't just "make" your speed 99, you have to train and do shit like the 40 to get faster.

there's another feature where you can play the whole career of your player from the perspective of that player. like if your player is a wide receiver, you always play as the wide receiver.

i just pre-ordered it on amazon. free shipping and no tax...

Is OJ in it?

lol, i dunno...probably not...

what do you mean? he's one of the greatest running backs in history and he's in the hall of fame. even though he committed murder he was found innocent. so ea has no reason to exclude him from the game.:1orglaugh

EA will fuck it up like they do most years. I've learned not to buy into their commercials and TV show hype.

It looks like a tight game. The new NHL title looks good too. Dual analog contol should be sweet.

:thumbsup

i personally think 2001 on ps2 was the best so far. this one looks promising though, but they did say it will be focused more on the running game...we'll just have to wait and find out...

Then go get 2K7. Oh wait you can't. So instead cry to your momma and don't play any football.

You realize you probably saw the 360 version. And it was probably being played on a HDTV.

2K7? What does that have to do with Madden?

I can't wait to give it a go, It's been a few seasons since i've gotten a madden game.

I'm just pissed at the abortion that was 06 on the 360. NCAA isn't too bad this year. I'll wait to see what people say about Madden and if it's better for the 360. The one on the older consoles hasn't changed much in like 5 years.

UM usually the Madden hater you 2Kwhatever lovers since they were the 2 most popular football games. You hate Madden thus you must be a 2K lover. If not then you are just a homo that hates football games. Thus you have ZERO business discussing anything in this thread.

It will be better. Last year it was kind of hurried just to get it out and plus it was a new system. All the things that were missing from the 360 version last year will be there plus more stuff. I suspect the PS3 version of Madden 07 to be much like the 360 version of 06.

I don't really care about companies at all. I just play whatever games I like best. I think I bought the 2K game once and it was OK, but I didn't really like the choppiness of it. Nonetheless, why would any human being be happy about not having competition in an industry?

I don't hate Madden, I've bought the game almost every year. I bought the one for 360 and it sucked pretty bad. As for the other consoles, it doesn't change all that much ever besides a roster update. I guess I just grew out of it and turned to text sims for realism. If that determines my sexuality, so be it.

I hope that is the case. NCAA is a lot of fun, although they left a few things out that are on the old consoles. I was really pissed that they hyped the next gen game last year for so long and then it really sucked.

Yeah I already explained why the 360 was the way it was last year. To bash Maden 07 because of Madden 06 without even playing it is well stupid.

Yes it does change. Each year has added something extra. You've probally just failed to take notice of it. For example 06 had QB vision. Never had it before. 2005 had Defensive playmaker option. Totally new thing. 2004 had Offensive play maker option. Once again totally new. Play Madden 2006 on PS2 or XBOX then play Madden 2003 on the same console and tell me they are the same. Also ther was the addition of the truck or hit stick.

Anyways Madden 07 will now let you actually control the O-lineman that is blocking for the RB at the start of a running play then switch to the RB. Also the RB just doesn't hit the defender when you use the hit stick. Depending on what kind of back he is he will either hit the defender if he's a big back. Or spin if he's a smallish back.

Also in Hall of Fame mode whatever player you pick you play his entire carreer as that player and see all the game from that perspective. So if you pick a WR you will see the field as a WR would se it and you would always be that player. No starting out as the QB and then switching ocne the ball is thrown. Of course you don't have to play in HOF mode if you don't want to.

There have been so many additions just since 2003 it's not even funny. People that think it hasn't changed just don't use those options. Probably they just click X a lot. Hell I have one friend that only plays offense. He plays offense on both teams and never plays D. Of course when he plays a real person like me he gets his ass kicked because he has no clue what to do on D.
