Still the game lacks smart AI.

I’m a real life quarterback.. Im an all around athlete, I can run,throw,catch and tackle. Now, Im not the size of a big lb and start causing fumbles. But, I know how to use my blockers since I run for my life lol.

What I love about this game is when I run, I run a certain a way so my blocker will run into the defender. In the current gen madden, I noticed they dont do that. You try to run and do cut and let ur o line smack the d line they just stop and turn around. In the current gen the running sucked, i thought nfl 2k5 did a great running game.

Madden 08 finally has a great running game, the passing game is harder but real to life. You cant just throw bombs all day long, u cant whore mike vick now.. cb/lb are yards away watching u.

My biggest beef with madden 08/ncaa 08 is that people just fumble all day long. Fumbles that arent suppose to happen, it’s like really random or scripted so the computer sticks with u. I do like the int feature, in rl defenders hands arent made out of bricks. Now if u just throw the ball up with more than 1 defender ur screwed.

Another thing I noticed when i said it lacks AI is that the wr’s are dumb as FUUK sometimes. I would throw a slant route and he would and get hit in the face with the ball and lift up his hands. Another thing, on post or long rails they just run sometimes. 1 thing, nfl 2k8 did great was letting u hold ur boost and jump so u would a massive jump for the ball.

I dont think this feature will ever be fixed since it’s basically on the new engine for this gen of madden. If u played 06/07 ur basically playing the same game. Just new features like the hit stick 2.0,more tackles,better catches.

Overall, I give it a great rating.. They need a real broadcast.. I still give it a 95/100. EA finally put something out worth playing, but NCAA 08 is garbage atm. Amazing how they keep using old technology for that game. You can get 60 fps for madden but 30 fps for ncaa?

come on!
