sup /sp/. I am looking for a opinion from madden players, I have madden 08 and some cash in my pocket. I have read reviews but can't decide if madden 09 is worth the buy. Is it much better then 08? Thanks in advance

it was a terrible let down in my opinion. Not much different from last years...even worse than last years actually. But for die hard Madden fans...it might be OK. Rent it first.

Op here: I'd love to rent first but had royally fucked all my rental accounts by not returning shit on time.

Ok, what about this one. I've been pc madden player so far. Never played any console maddens, now is it worth for me to buy 09?

oh god yes, the pc ones are awful. It is like night and day. All pc sports by EA are so much different on pc. I don't just mean controls either. They leave out a ton for the pc ones.

Is 09 even being released for PC?

no, but some people at www.football-freaks.com are making free mod for 08 version

I bought it, big mistake. I haven't found a reason to buy a new console so I'm playing it off of PS2. It's incredibly laggy and nothing of value was added. This is from a person who has bought every Madden since '02.

Guess what.. It's the SAME as o8, except new rookie mode (which is "Madden for Dummies"). Unless you desperatly need the roster update, don't bother. Oh, and Sony play online is borked. Xbox play is fine though.

I have it for 360 and the gameplay is a lot harder than 08. In 08, newbs could just heave it up to Moss and it was ridiculous how he'd barely ever miss. In this one, QB's aren't as much of a force as they've been in the old games. The AI is a little smarter to notice if you're just throwing it every time too, seems like they wanted to stress more use of the run. I mean, these people aren't wrong when they say it's the same old Madden pretty much but unless you have the difficulty on Rookie, it's a lot harder being perfect on offense. If you just play All-Madden, you won't see too many 56-42 games with 5 minute quarters.

I like 09. I picked up Terry Glenn and Chad Pennington for the Vikings in my franchise. 18-1 here I come!

If you want to use Play Now and play online, buy it

If you want to play Franchise mode, wait about three more weeks and ask again. Franchise mode sucks, but there is supposed to be a patch coming soon to fix the freezing/lack of progression and regression.

Sounds better than my Kurt Warner/Travis WIlson combo.

Lack of progression and regression seems to be a problem in EVERY madden game, thats why I always stuck with NCAA Dynasty modes.
