Most gamers will tell you that Madden is much more than a game: To some, it's a seasonal event, one that helps mark the passing of seasons from Summer into Fall. To others, it's a religious experience, a pilgrimage that football fans eagerly take each year as a warm-up to the NFL season. But of course, Madden evolves from year to year, and the next-gen versions of the game are no different. What is the Madden Gamer Level? What is the Hall of Fame mode? How do these affect this year's Superstar mode? IGN went to David Ortiz, Lead Producer of Madden Next-Gen, for the answers to these questions and more.
Since the Xbox 360 launched in November 2005, followed by the Wii and Playstation 3 in the following year, pro football video games were launched into a new area as well. Ever since the first videos of Madden 06 on Xbox 360 were launched around E3 2005, expectations have been sky high for pro football games over the last 5 years. But did they really live up to them or did things go mind numbingly wrong?
" everything was unnecessarily complicated. Nobody liked anything besides the Tackle Alley feature and the animations. There was really no depth and whether there will be a Backbreaker 2 is up in the air"
There is a lot of people that love this game and yes there is some issues as with most games that are released these days, a patch has fixed some of the issues, as for a first release of a football game that EA has tried to block anybody from doing, this is not bad and yes Backbreaker 2 will be the great.Got go and play my season game.
GameSpot writes: Wii Remote pack-in leads list of all-time titles; Guitar Hero III, GTA: San Andreas, Modern Warfare 2, Wii Fit, Mario Kart Wii, Call of Duty 4, Madden NFL 07, COD: World at War, and Namco Museum also make chart.
Last week when NPD released its December 2009 US sales numbers, it declared that three of the 10 games of all time were from the Call of Duty franchise. Today, the industry-research firm released its list of top 10 domestic non-PC games to date, which reconfirmed that Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 was the fourth best seller of all time. Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare came in seventh place, followed by Call of Duty: World at War in ninth.
Don't call it a comeback--it's been here for years.
Unfortunately, NPD's number-one best-selling software "game" is a game many people don't consider a game at all. The Wii Remote pack-in minigames compilation Wii Play is now the top-selling software game product of all time in the United States, beating out Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock (second) and Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas (third).
Hmmm Sony could have 100 million sales on *anygame* for the PS2 if they packed it in...
a pack in is not really a sold unit. It's a here you can have this whether you want it or not...
It's also the most thrown out 'game' in history.
Also, AOL starter discs are apparently the best selling software of all time. OF ALL TIME!
It's funny that people can't accept that Nintendo's games are the best
sellers(ever in fact).
Hell Mario Kart Wii has surpassed what any PS2 game sold worldwide.
Nintendo's franchises are massive and still sold millions when they were in 3rd place.
Wii Play is good ONLY for the controller. Once you've played through the "games" once...that's it. Move on.

But for those expecting a Madden type game or something you can drink beer and play without any real skill (Anti-Jock/Frat Boy speaking) then you're doomed. A side note, approach this game with a sense of humor, you will lose some of your most invested players all too easily. Remember the rule of thumb, you roll dice enough, you will roll a 1, and it's just a 1 at the wrong time that'll turn your All-Star Blitzer into the next Goblin BBQ."
i wanna see this game on the wii
madden kiddie version? i would think you arm would get tired waving the controller around trying the throw the ball. i have seen madden on the ps2 (same graphics as the wii) but i am ready for some next gen graphics, features and gameplay (which madden 2006 didn't have)
does anyone know when the demo is coming out to xbl market.
madden 2007 is 360 only right, I'm pretty sure this is a 360 exclusive that's what they said at E3.
