Madden 2009 is a well-designed game...
Visual/Sound- The Graphics in the game are supurb, in only 720P they still look amazing...In the beginning of each game a picture of the outside of the stadium is shown and it looks fantastic....The grass on the field looks great, players, and sidelines have been improved as well....The sound in the game is good (love no more madden and collinsworth is a great addition)
Gameplay- The biggest addition to the game would have to be the rewind...Rewind is an amazing freature that lets you go back into the game and redo a play if you messed up on the previous play before. The CPU is HARD!!! BEWARE!!! I played my first game on all-madden, is what i usually play on, the CPU jumped out to an early 21-0 lead...Picking plays and executing is key in this game so there is no messing around like other previous maddens...The addition of madden moments!....These are fun...great new additon to redo and relive some of the greatest moments of last year like the PATS CHOKING AGAISNT GIANTS LOL!....Finally the beginning of the game starts up by madden telling you about this IQ and you have to take some test to see where you stand....Its cool but ahhh???Any purpose really? Does it matter? Not really.....
Online- The new online with up to 32 teams in a online fatansy league is great...have trades, play games, and eventually an ultimate superbowl winner...very fun and FINALLY PUT IN THE GAME!...
