*Fresh Catch*... Madden NFL 2007 on Wii... totally different, for the better

User Rating: 8.5 | Madden NFL 07 WII
Madden 2007 on the Wii is a fantastic game. Before release, there were many doubters among gamers about how the Wii would handle sports games that took complicated controls like Madden does. However, this game has certainly proved doubters wrong. The gameplay is revolutionary, using the 4 directions on the d-pad and the A button to throw to recievers. Ofcourse, you also need to actually make the throwing motion. Defensively, tackling is roughly the same but by extending both your arms, you can make great tackles into vicioius, big hits. The Wii takes full control of the football experience and brings you into the game so much more. The graphics certainly aren't that impressive, but they're enough to not keep you looking away during all of the great new, close-up camera angles that are used when desperate points in a game come. What really takes the Madden experience to a whole nother level is the sound. Usually sounds in these games aren't as impressive but the speaker in the Wii remote is used brilliantly. Hearing the quarterback yell the plays, hearing the strain from big hits.... it's a great addition. Everything comes together pretty well for Madden on the Wii. The multiplayer is that much more competitive and fun because of how into the game you become. You honestly feel like it's you and your friend duking it out as the quarterback and a defensive player. Madden NFL 2007, Wii style, is atleast a rent. If you've had it since release, then you know what i'm talking about in this review. However, go out and atleast try this game. It won't let you down. I give Madden NFL 2007 a 8.5/10.0
