My review!! Madden is teh suxors!! lol :P

Who cares? OMG TEH 360 MADDEN IS 60 FPS IT IS TEH GREATEST GAME EVER!!

People have managed to play Madden at 30FPS for the longest time. Now all of a sudden its a sin to do it.

it doesn't matter stop arguingTnasty11

So we just go on continuosly blind in SW (only going by Gamespot's score). Afraid to look outside of the SW structure when we form arguments/discussion in here.

IGN was too harsh, 30FPS is a solid frame rate, i'd give the 360 8.5 and the PS3 version a 8.0. I dont really care because I dont like American football and its not like the PS3 CANT do 60fps, its just that EA is lazy.MGS9150

EA isn't lazy. There are time constraits for one and second, we all know the PS3 hardware isn't dev friendly at the moment. People have to get use to the hardware which will happen in time

Madden is really getting more attention than it deserves. :|
Finale-

I said this months ago that this game would garner lots of attention becuase it is already known that one version is superior, yet the new review system has no way of showing it and is doing a dis-service to people (because most people just look at the score anyways)

According to SW, Only GS scores matter.

I think the framerate thing is significant. but it's relative; if you don't have both consoles, the framerate isn't that big of an issue. but if you have both consoles, the 360 version is the hands-down best because of the framerate. Dreams-Visions

Many people here didn't read IGN's review. IGN said that the 30fps on the PS3 is not stable.

Well, depends on who's forum you're on. ;)Ibacai

For the purposes of System Wars, gamespot is right.

We've already known GS scoring system turned garbage ever since they went incremental.

The Madden scores just sealed the deal.

It's funny how the structured world of system wars puts soooo much emphasis on Gamespot's score yet when a glaring flaw is revealed nobody seems to care.

All these people who say they don't care about this I don't even wanna se eyou try and bring up a review score to me ever in an argument.

That 'only Gamespot's score matter' is a rule that has been around probably since System Wars began, and has survived fanboy riots like when Zelda flopped, when Jade Empire flopped, and so forth. This debacle is a rather trivial by comparison. If you don't like it, leave.

I'm not contesting change the rules....I'm more so pointing out why they're dumb and hold no water. If someone tries to come up with me and argue a game based on 1 persons opinion I'll call them out for being dumb

Anyone else find it ironic that many people on these boards refer to themselves as ultra core gamers and that the Wii is too casual yet they argue over Madden? :|Gunraidan

just because you play Madden does not mean you are a casual :|

It's "dumb" purely to argue which system is better when none of the systems are directly comparable. Noone is denying that system wars lacks logic, but if you choose to post in these forums you follow the system that is set up.

What did you expect from a game that sold 7.4 Million copies in the U.S alone? It has one of the most competitive fanbases in video games. When it releases its practically a holiday every male calls off of work.

has madden always been played at 30fps until now? im glad im not a football fan except for the real football (soccer)mazdaspeed-rx8

American Football > All humanity.

Not really, there is nothing to stop me from arguing with logic.....instead of the flawed system wars reality.

I think my arguments will make much mroe sense using real world logic than a flawed system wars way of discussing topics.

All I care about right now is playing the freakin game!

Cows make it like 60 fps is not that big of a deal, but if the shoe as on the other foot..........

Well if we go by IGN, then Zelda and Resistance dont flop :shock:

I'm more curious about the wii version. My guess 8.5 because it might be missing some of the things form the other 2 version like a good online mod (Xbox live and PSnet>>>>Friend code) and I doubt even with the controls it would get 9.0.chansaet

I am quite interested in that scores also....I mean does it even have all the features of the PS3/360 versions. I really have no clue....should be interesting to see the score.

GS reviews suck sometimes. Anybody that says the GS score is the BE ALL END ALL when it comes to SW, well, you're just fooling yourself and being a shortsighted sheep. If you really want a better look at a game's reviews, just use gamerankings, where the scores from all mags/websites are compiled. Go through those reviews (and remember, reviews are merely OPINIONS), then judge for yourself if you will like the game or not.

Still no single review score, especially GameSpot's, should be taken as gospel truth. That's just stupid IMO - think for yourself a bit.

Here's the most accurate review you'll ever read, and it's only three words long.

Madden is dumb.

Aw what's the matter. Is Madden to complicated for you? Do you lack the neccsary skills and knowledge to play the game? Or are you just another hater who has nothing better to do except ignore the fact that Madden is here and its F'N taking over once again. It will be here this year, next year and the year after that. It will happen again....and again....and again and there isn't a damn thing you can do to stop it. So just give up your witty remarks about this game. There are few if any games that have as big of a Hardcore fanbase as Madden has. There are few if any games that take the amount of skill it takes to put together the perfect Gameplan.

"Its no fluke, that's why its here every year"

I thought the Wii version wasnt going to have friends codes?
