After playing the PS3 version for about 2 months and the PS2 version about 5 days....

No. you're not. I'll never understand this devotion to this game. People would have you think it was the greatest game ever made, when in fact it was glitchy as hell. In my opinion , madden 05 on the ps2 was a much better game. Sure, theres better presentation on 2k5, but you get sick of that after a few games anyway, and you skip right past it....

lets not turn this into a 2k vs EA thread please.


This is why I was hesitant to create this thread, because I knew at some point, it would start heading down this path.

not for those of us who prefer Madden over 2k5. I know thats surprising as hell to many folk, but we are out there.

Ok, then if you prefer Madden over 2k, then how about a 99 cent copy of Madden 05 with updated rosters?

That game is superior to Madden 09 and it's last gen also.

I already own Madden '05

Besides, Madden '09 and Madden '05 are pretty much identical. I mean, the engine hasn't changed since......

Do the players move to fast on the ps2 version or is it just me?

they move faster than on the next gen version. But you get used to it.

It pains me to read this since I dont have a PS2 and the 40GB PS3 I do have doesnt run any PS2 games so Im stuck. Glad to hear some are finding the gaming experience they were hoping to find with the next gen offerings of Madden and its really unfortunate that at this point we are relegated to running a game on an inferior system because EA has suddenly decided that the visual bells and whistles are more important then the actual gameplay on the field.
