Unless some big stupid bug jumps out of nowhere I'm leaning towards buying NCAA and Madden. First time that'll have happened since 04 I think.

Re: Madden NFL 09

there is no way i pre-order Madden.

and i will not use the gaming websites (Gamespot, IGN) as reliable review sources, as i've learned they do not have a clue to what a good, solid football game should be. seems like they play for 15 minutes and give their rating, before they find the glitches and all the other issues we end up with in our laps.

i'll read actual user reviews across the net before deciding, period. that's the only way anymore.

Re: Madden NFL 09

I'll do the same thing I do every year and rent it. So far I have yet to buy an EA next gen football game but I hope that this is the year where that changes because I'd love to play a good NFL game.

Re: Madden NFL 09

I voted maybe. My main problem with Madden 08 when I wasn't over-analyzing it was that it was too damn boring. That seems to be somewhat remedied from the videos I've seen so far so I'm definitely considering picking it up on day 1 or before. Time will tell.

Re: Madden NFL 09

My wife and kids are pre-ordering Madden for me as one of my Fathers day gifts. What a great gift idea!

I don't think it's wise to be "sold" on a game before you even played it. If I would have used that approach I would have wasted money on the last couple maddens. I played the demos and saw that the product was nothing near my expectations for a next gen madden.

Look at all the problems and game killing bugs last year. Some of the same people were saying they were sold on last years game and look what happened.
