Your right there are people that probably love the game. I never read into numbers because statistics can be manipulated to read which ever way you want them to. Example 9 out of ten doctors recommend this tooth paste yes it maybe true but what they don't tell you is that they sponsor those 9 doctors lol. Anyway the numbers have something to do with being the only NFL game around because I brought Madden 07 360 because of that. I played it at a friends and didn't like it but I picked it up because it was the NFL and Madden and I hoped it would grow on me, but it didn't. Also people have been faithful to madden for years and they keep buying because they keep hoping this is the year.

Re: IS it Next-Gen yet???

Is usually takes a Next gen game, what 3 years to be put in stores on average(i.e Halo 3, etc....), so I believe since this is the 3rd yr of development, that this is the real next gen Madden, head to toe.

So far, football-wise, they've had very little reason to...and the numbers seem show that. Its nothing like when Madden 2001 hit the PS2 where the distance between PS1 and PS2 were so glaring- at least ,not yet, IMHO.

Back then- if you saw and played Madden 2001- and owned a PS1...you definitely wanted a PS2.

And you actually got MORE features in doing so.

Maybe this year. We'll see.
You nailed it imo - still way too much incentive for people to just stay on current gen

Re: IS it Next-Gen yet???

Maybe next year.... lol. Like some have already said, if the gameplay has indeed improved and all of the options (Owner Mode, Full Player Edits, working fatigue, no HOF in Franchise, etc.) are finally included in Madden 08... then IMO, we are where we should have been two years ago... this is the game that I was expecting for Madden 06.... so yeah, maybe next year.

Re: IS it Next-Gen yet???

With most sports games, it's next gen when someone walks in the room and asks what game you're watching.

lol my thing is this though when you buy a next-gen console at the price they are you expect it to be THE NEXT BIG THING, not just the next thing right? I didn't see this game really warranting a next-gen purchase like some other games did. Also with the extra price for the game you expect the game to have all the things the last-gen version had and more to make you say WOW right.
