Xbox game 5 out of 5
I personally am a ps2 guy, but the Xbox games have better detail graphics than ps2. I just have a hard time with the Xbox controller, so I can't use it. But it looks great. But FYI, Madden 09 is a much bigger step up and improvement from 08 than Madden 08 is from 07.

Great game 4 out of 5
I love this game. I only wish Madden did play by play announcement, like in the older versions of madden. Been a long time since I have owned a console. Last one I owned was sega. So controls are strange to me , but easy to learn
Seems to kee my boyfriend busy... 5 out of 5
I know nothing about video games! So this may not be much help to many, but I purchased this item for my boyfriend for Christmas, and he plays it every day. The last Madden he played was 06 and he says it is very similar to that, but the graphics are better, and there are some different was to do stuff.
Now this is a man who is happy playing the same video game for two years, and who is very happy still with his Xbox, not Xbox360. For the game gurus, they are already finished with their Madden 09 and selling it to someone. I would have to say I recommend this for someone who is not a gameing guru.
