360.. i want a ps3 but i need to see a price cut soon for that to happen.

It can be complicated if you let it be. like anything else, just practice. It's easier on my end to say its not that hard because ive been playin football games since birth (tecmo bowl ftw) but just play it and figure out your groove. youll be fine.

"I miss John Madden's captain obvious of comments.

"WELL IF HE WOULDA CAUGHT THAT ONE IT WOULDA BEEN A COMPLETE PASS GOBBLEGOBBLE!"

"I too think presentation is very important. From what I've seen in the Madden demos, it seems like they're just slapping on the same interface they used in FIFA and NHL. Hopefully they'll be more creative later.

I wouldnt call the man overrated.. it seems like the hype of the offseason is putting his career under a microscope.

Presentation is soo important. We overlook it with gameplay but presentation can make or break a sports game, and it has for madden too. I liked 08 a lot, but as good, or improved, as the gameplay was, the presentation, for lack of a better word, sucked. NFL 2k5 did have the whole espn thing going which made rounded the curves that madden sorta left untouched. now that madden has the espn license, it is obvious that they never use it... no highlights, no espn/nfl live presentations.... i think the improvements of presentation would actually focus the game more on what can be added in the off-season features.

All in all, as secondary as presentation is, it is very important and can turn me off to a game easily if done poorly or not at all.
