madden 09 coming soon, whos getting it?
 

20th anniversary edition, madden 09. comes out next month.

haven't played it in years but remember it as always having a kick-ass soundtrack and great gameplay :thumbsup

I've played and loved Madden since the first game on Sega. That last game (2008) had to have been the worst one out of the bunch. There was no real skill in it because of all the glitches people exploited online. Hopefully they spent more time on it, rather than sitting on their hands because of their exclusive NFL license.

i've bought them every year for as long as i remember. i don't see how this year will be any different. :thumbsup

i agree the xbox 360 '08 i didn't like that much, in fact i thought it sucked. but the ps2 madden '08 was good as usual.

I'll be getting it :) It's just too bad that they had to put Sega out of the football market because I always thought their 2K series kicked Madden's ass.

Anyways, if you can't wait to play some football, the EA Sports NCAA College Football 09 came out today ! I have to get out and pick it up.

my first time playing was madden 97 on sega genesis.

slick we will have to play each other, if you have xbox 360.

I'm getting it for ps3... lemme know if you want to play online and get whooped on by the Raiders...

im more of a Fifa guy, but ill be getting madden for sure

I'll be getting it for 360. I just picked up ncaa last night as well. Gotta renew my xbox live though. Are you getting ncaa fris?

Is there really much difference compared to the recent ones?They all look very similar

Yeah i'm still playing Fifa 08 on the PS3. Looking forward to 09.

Will probably get Madden 09 aswell, even though i don't know much about the sport... :1orglaugh

me..i m getting it! :thumbsup

I played NCAA at my Buddy's house last night. I think that's a better game than Madden.

Fuck EA, they destroyed the sports game market.

Yup. The 2k series was on the verge of wiping out Madden. EA lucked with the liscense deal. Sucks.

i wish mlb 08 the show was avail for xbox

I am getting it. I loved 08

i think its time for me to get a PS3 or Xbox 360 :)

I'll be all over it fris, its the only game I really play.

9 days until its out

I'm sure I'll be getting it eventually.

It showed up on the torrents sites 48 hours ago.

modding your xbox is really stupid, unless you dont want to use XBL

I tried the demo on PS3 it looked really good but since I'm not really good at football, I doubt I'll get it... I'm looking forward to NHL '09 tho :)

on 360, that is not the case.

The PS3 demo rocked.

I might get it

Not a single person I have modded 360s for has had a single issue with playing online via XBL.

As far as I'm aware, there have NEVER been any XBL bannings because of people using modded 360. Yes, this was the case with the old XBox...but not with the 360. Anyone banned for using a modded box was using it to cheat at the online games, and that's why they were banned.

Count me in for PS3 :)

You guys should try playing some actual sports.

does it drop the same time as TW09 ?

The last football game I bought was game day '99 back in high schol.

I've always taken a crack at each version, and I usually hate it. I can honestly say that playing real football is easier.

It just feels like everything moves too fast. I wish there was an option to slow the game down by percentages.

that is very untrue. there was LOTS of banning of modded consoles. However, none recently with the "stealth" mods when done properly.

pre paid for the game at game stop already... can't wait

I actually do :winkwink:

This is for 2am when I'm winding down after getting back from biking or working out at the gym.

We all have to have ways to unwind. Mins is TV or video games.:2 cents:

I don't think any of that was really ever confirmed. Some of the boxes I did with original flash firmware updates are still up and running and playing MANY MANY MANY games of COD4. I can't say that there weren't people who managed to get banned. It just isn't widespread or even something to worry about. No one I know with a modded box has had issues. Red ring issues...that's another story.

I've got a pile of them sitting here waiting for me to attempt to fix the red rings.

tomorow its out, get it!

What did they do ? How did they do it ?

Not for me, just curious... :1orglaugh

2k, 2k1 and 2k2 back in the dreamcast absolutely kicked maddens ass. 03/04 it was a tossup and from there they went their own directions. I thought madden improved while 2k went downhill. There were certain things 2k did well but I went back to madden. 2k1 for the most part was farbetter than madden BUT everything was centered around a QB that could roll out. MANY madden games have centered around this and the college football games have too.

I'll probably pass. I haven't been too impressed with the last few versions. There are much better games out there for the next gen.

MLB 08 The Show is one of the best sports games ever... :thumbsup

lol what a fucking gay response. I bet you're getting your pads on right now to go play a huge game of tackle football with the neighborhood kids right? lol!

ya i know im buying ps3 just for that reason

Online does kinda lag sometimes for The Show though...

I hope the new Madden is smooth online. I guess I'll find out tomorrow...
