Madden 09 was one of those games I enjoyed a lot,and if U are a football fan i think U will like it to!I loved the idea of the users Madden IQ because the CPU was just as good as U at that point!but it still has room for improvements!the graphics was great,it was more realistic!(the 08 one had too cartoon-ish graphics)the game play was O.K. once U learned how to time a tackle our a stiff arm ect.the franchise mode is great!(I actually went as far as 2022 with the Patriots,I drafted a rookie SS and played until he retired.I managed to pump his overall up to 91 in his 8ht season,i grabbed 6 MVP awards with him and recorded 427 sacks and 1568 tackles!)What I noticed that after a while when U tried to rehab an injured player the game always freezes and I had to restart the whole game and wait until he naturally recovered!One more thing I noticed that when my WR turns and stops and I throw the ball the CPU's CB almost always jumps in front of my WR and knocks down the ball our worse and when I am on defence my CB waits un-till the CPU;s WR catches the ball than tackles(it looks that the CPU's AI is still head and shoulders above the Users on defence)The thing that I did not like that your teams overall could only go downwards!but I had a lot of fun with Madden 09!It is a great football simulator!
