Glitchers taking over a great game...

by Bamm84 May 5, 2009, 4:12 PM PDT

It always takes them a few months but the glitchers have finally taken over what could be a great game. My favorite/most obvious glitch is one that SWGLEADER210 likes to pull on people in which he sits there and calls audibles rapidly until, all of a sudden, his QB just takes off running down the field before the ball is snapped. As soon as the clock runs down you think he's going to get a delay of game penalty but instead find that the QB was just credited with scoring a TD. It's sad and lame what people do to this game just so they can get a few wins. I've had my most fun gaming experiences playing this game online in the first few months before the glitchers/cheaters figure out how to destroy it, looks like Madden 2009's days have come to an end.

Does anyone know if there will be a roster update for 09 with the new rockie class, or will they just wait for 10?

Not my favorite Madden

by coltsrock21 Apr 7, 2009, 10:53 PM PDT

I was kind of dissapointed when I got Madden 09 figuring it would be better than 08. I was wrong.. The defense on 09 is terrible and the franchise mode in 08 is a lot more in depth. I hope Madden 2010 is better because im definitely trading in 09 for it.

Best Madden since 93

by jvanny3 Mar 8, 2009, 1:42 AM PST

This madden year was probably the best one in quite some time. I remember playing 93 and it was impressive but there has been so much change in game play since those days it's like comparing Brett Favre to Joe Namath, there is so much change in the game. The biggest one for me is online game play, I ranked as high as top 1k at one point and really wasn't sure what was the enticing part of the game, trophies are a thing that interest me into other games and this didn't offer it, maybe next year. But I could tell you there was some tough parts about the game, the online play was excellent but you could manipulate it to win no matter what if you could atleast put points on the board. Other aspects of the game included a poor defense, the computer plays bad d and it's hard to play online with poor d. I think there are a few players that are over rated and double teaming the wide outs doesn't seem to help. I found the game highly addictive though like all maddens and a great way to say wow madden is amazing. Best sports series ever

The Defense Sucks

by DogofWar1 Mar 3, 2009, 11:01 AM PST

I am not being bias here. I love this franchise but since there has not been another NFL title out there, the series is struggling from their lack of wanting to greatly improve the game.

My main issue is that the offense is too good. Someone of Trent Dilfer's skill and a rookie 75 overall reciever should never beat someone like Asante Samuel, Ed Reid, or Champ Baily. Dilfer should not be able to have 500+ yards and several 50+ yrd bombs in a single game against a defense that is ranked 95 overall. This is a serious issue I hope they address in the next game.
