I am loving Madden 2009

[grunt]

Where is the love for this game? This is one of the best games I played and play a dam good sim football game. I know the game has some issues but overall thiis is is the best Madden I played for both last gen and clearly this gen.

This is coming from a hardcore 2k guy.

Can you elaborate on what you find "sim" about Madden this year? IMO, it is terribly unrealistic because of the major flaws....ol-dl interaction, DB-rec interaction, fatigue, CPU AI, lack of realistic penalties (many are just absent), faulty officiating at times that is unreviewable (as you cannot choose what you want to review) and broken reviews....all of these make it extremely un-sim IMO.

This is why i'm now playing 2k5 with updated rosters and sliders. God the game plays flawless with those in the game. Never again am I getting another Madden. I fell in love.

Theres major flaws in real football too.Watching nfl games on sundays
are like some of my madden games.Ref calling stupid penalties,Qbs
throwing stupid passes..no run games for good RB`s then finally they break a big one.Teams you think will win lose.sounds like madden 09 to me..I love madden this year too.At first i was like "i dont know"
But it mimics real NFL games sometimes...Just watch the dallas/wash game thats on right now...

Well, I don't want to get you in trouble, but it was you that helped open my eyes. You guided me to teh light. I remember you were suggesting I buy 2k, subtly of course. So I did. THANK YOU COUNTRYBOY! YOU RULE!

Did you see Witten's TD how he got past the LB and kept on going and the LB could not keep up and was helpless to stop him, did you notice when the ball was coming he didnt just jump 10 ft in the air and bat it away
