Nintendo's 3DS launch will feature 18 titles, but few stand out as much as EA's Madden NFL Football. The juggernaut franchise, one of the industry's biggest, has traditionally shipped late in the summer, just in time for the beginning of the football season. EA is breaking that cycle for the 3DS, making sure the portable has plenty of NFL action from the moment it launches on March 27.
This is my breakdown of the gameplay and presentation trailers released today by EA. I saw a lot of really good things in those videos, some being better tackling, better zone coverage, custom playbooks, team entrances, and cheerleaders.....
TGH Writes: Madden NFL returns once again but, in the 3rd dimension. Madden NFL 3DS is one of the many launch titles that was release for the new Nintendo 3DS. Madden NFL 3DS showcases how a sport game would work on the Nintendo 3DS. Does Madden NFL 3DS make a touchdown on this new platform? Or does it get penalty. Find out in this review of Madden NFL 3DS.
I tried this out, this was a sad excuse for a launch title. Had essentially no features the 3DS showed off.
STO Writes:
Just like with the Wii, EA have grasped the basic principles of the 3DS, with great graphics, a clutter free main screen supplemented by an easy to use touch screen and plenty of hand holding for those new to the sport. Overall Madden is a great pick up and play game, but also a long burner due to the included full season mode.
