I beg to differ the nay sayers, I am really enjoying this game. Luv the blocking feature. So cool. Yes the game isn' perfect but for the only NFL game in town, I am really enjoying it. Though the damn star is too big on the side of the helmets. hehe :p:

(Former NFL2Ker)

i really wish they'd bring the 2K series back, because that game blew madden out of the water. i hate the monopoly EA sports is running.

I agree COMPLETELY! I loved the 2K series and I still even play ESPN 2K5.

Same here. Unfortunately we have no choice but to play Madden since the only NFL video game around. :(

I thought the star might be a little too big. Also, our pants are grey at home instead of light blue. Everything else is pretty amazing though. TO runs and looks like TO. I can't run the ball because of my line but can light up the passing with Gleen, Witten, and company so it seems kinda realistic.

glenn...i did that for so long lol

plus on a side note i did create a player...got my self a 94 over all QB :D of course i did it on the 49ers and then just released my self into the FA

Theres just way too many things you can't control in this game. No package substitutions, no individual defensive adjustments, no player editing, no create a player rankings and so on. Depending on the level you play on, there's just way to much bullchit that goes on. It's rediculous. I play on All-Pro and sometimes All Madden and I swear every other play I'm checking the replay asking "why/how did that just happen" because I can't believe of how un-realistic it is. I'm strongly contemplating taking the game back and trading it in. And this is coming from a person who has bought and loved every Madden since '98!!!!

I miss 2k. I would have LOVED to see what these guys came up with. Madden seems to put out the Same game every year, with only a few tweaks in it lol. The people at Madden know everyone will still buy the same game year after year, so knowing this and having no competition, why make a better game. Don't want to start a argument, just MO. I miss 2k...

I won't buy it. What is upsetting ;EA can't make MLB games where they ruled w/ MVP. The 2k series baseball is really bad.NFL 2k5 still rules.

I began playing NCAA07 for the 360 again. Atomosphere and fun level is better then Madden. I like both so will just switch back and fourth, whenever.

NCAA 07 is a far better game than Madden 07. I'm a little disapointed with this year's Madden.

i like the new RB controls with the highlight stick and the lead blocking control, but other than that, its the same exact game as last year with a few improvements. i think its gonna be time to upgrade to the xbox 360 next season.

actually if i were u i would not do that. i have both the regular xbox and the 360. i had reserved madden 07 for my 360. when it came out i was really dissapointed when i was playing it for the 360 its just plain horrible man. the only thing thats good is the grafix thats about it. they made madden 07 for 360 way 2 easy.. and also on the 360 version they dont hva emichaels or madden on it for some wierd reason, when i was playing it i was falling asleep the guy on there is plain boring..

bottom line what i did was go back 2 game stop and just get it for the original xbox instead. its the same as last years but its much better if u play with it on your xbox live like i always do. and the xbox live for the 360 madden 07 is just horribe man the forums are crap and they are way 2 slow.

There are package substitutions. I use them alot.

Again, yes there are.

Actually you can edit players in the game now, and even if you couldn't, there are editors that allow you to do it.

NGB was refering to the 360 version of the game. All of his statements were accurate.

Nonetheless, I'm enjoying the hell out of Madden 07 (360). It's not perfect, but it's pretty damn good.

I agree that NCAA has the edge in pure fun, but Madden 07 is a more polished overall product. The biggest difference is the collision detection, NCAA's is borderline awful(as anyone who has played the game and seen their qb sacked by a defender 1-2 yds away will testify).

Madden's(360) isnt all that either. bugs the hell out of me when i get a sack with Ware and Ferg (who's 4 yards away) gets the credit.
