New games this week: Madden '09
You can feel it in the frat house rec rooms. It's positively electric in the dormitories. You can sense the excitement in the living room of that guy you work with at Arby's who probably hasn't turned his 360 on since last time this year: It's Madden 09 week. As you can probably guess, it's enough to net him the featured spot.
It's not as though he's completely uncontested, though. PC players get to look forward to Gas Powered Games' Space Siege and DS and Wii's Line Rider sequel looks like fun, though decidedly less free than its Flash counterpart. Check out the full list after the break.
Xbox 360:

Duke @ Aug 11th 2008 11:07AM
Yeah, considering he should probably just be wearing a bathrobe while playing shuffleboard.
Bleu @ Aug 11th 2008 12:04PM

Duke @ Aug 11th 2008 1:44PM
Bleu, you're a tool. That had nothing to do with the man's post. You just wanted to be at the top with your little tantrum.

Jakka (Not sure why he got banned?) @ Aug 11th 2008 8:53AM
...yes, because you've already managed to play through every other game on PS3 and 360, ESPECIALLY considering the shitload of excellent games that came out for X-mas?
Just buy Crackdown or TF2.Much better and much cheaper games.

JTHomeslice @ Aug 11th 2008 8:43AM

j.howlett @ Aug 11th 2008 8:50AM
BC rearmed doesn't come to ps3 this week? i kinda want madden. haven't play in a couple years and haven't bought one since snes.
Nate @ Aug 11th 2008 9:30AM
BC *IS* coming to the PSN this week. Dunno why Justin left it out.
SoCoolCurt (PSN: KillaKornbread) @ Aug 11th 2008 10:55AM
i was wondering about that too. i think he made that mistake when 1942 came out too. oh well, hopefully it comes with a demo so i can test that bad boy out before i throw my money at it.
CenturionRyan @ Aug 11th 2008 8:51AM
Who still buys these?
baby sea tuna @ Aug 11th 2008 9:44AM
More people than will buy every other release this week, combined.
SoCoolCurt (PSN: KillaKornbread) @ Aug 11th 2008 10:58AM
dude watch the numbers. this game will sell a ridiculous amount. even if it is the same rehashed, buggy game every year.
hell my 17 year old younger brother took off work for 2 days so he can play it. i mean im a football fanatic and everything (go Cowboys) but i just cant make myself buy that game anymore, it is teh suck.
Kye - Me_DF @ Aug 11th 2008 8:51AM
And there goes the 2007 server.
Rollins @ Aug 11th 2008 8:52AM
Don't forget about the original Xbox version! I didn't see its box in there. :)

j.howlett @ Aug 11th 2008 8:56AM
i was just thinking that
Fenix @ Aug 11th 2008 9:06AM
Wow, pretty cool I guess. Quick photoshop Joystiq!
mapi @ Aug 12th 2008 12:47AM
What's sad in all this is that this is the first year without a Gamecube release.
rv @ Aug 11th 2008 9:08AM
Hopefully it won't sell too well again. Fuck madden
Brent @ Aug 11th 2008 9:51AM
Bionic Commando: Rearmed is also on PSN this week, and it should be sweet.
tmmoore_nc @ Aug 11th 2008 9:52AM
Wrong boxart for Madden 09 on Wii, guys.
Gronk @ Aug 11th 2008 10:26AM
I thought Line Rider was a September release.
Shadow Hog @ Aug 11th 2008 10:26AM
You're missing Strong Bad's PC version.
Ben @ Aug 11th 2008 10:35AM
We need moar versionz!
Orion_of_Chaos @ Aug 11th 2008 10:35AM
This week's all about Bangai-O and Strong Bad once I finish getting the Platinum Trophy in Uncharted.
emirabal @ Aug 11th 2008 10:59AM
How come you dont have the version for the regular xbox.
vidGuy @ Aug 11th 2008 11:04AM
I'll be picking up my copy of Madden 09 CE on the 360 tomorrow morning. I'm as excited for Head Coach as I am Madden.
umm....hello??? @ Aug 11th 2008 11:18AM
BC:Rearmed for me this week. dunno which version I'll get though (xbla or psn)...
FSK405K @ Aug 11th 2008 11:44AM
No iphone version?
Mr Khan @ Aug 11th 2008 12:23PM
I wonder if the Wii version will fare better than last year's version, which sold least of all supported home consoles (including Xbox 1), and didn't crack the NPD top 10 for the month
This version is getting better recieved critically, along with a better 3rd-party environment altogether on Wii this year
TeflonFong @ Aug 11th 2008 12:49PM
I played the demo (PS3) and it really is a big improvement this year...I would say this is the biggest next-gen leap so far when it comes to graphics and gameplay. I usually never buy Madden 2 years in a row...I skipped out on Madden 07, but I am seriously debating on getting 09- going to wait on more reviews and head-to-heads first.
LilTmac2003 @ Aug 11th 2008 1:43PM
What are you guys talking about? I could care less that Madden came out... Pshh... I personally think it's about time that 'The Cheetah Girls: Passport to Freedom' has been released. I'm going to take off work to play this ALL DAY.
...yeah, I'm getting Madden.
Arturo @ Aug 11th 2008 1:51PM
nothing for me this week =p
Ghen @ Aug 11th 2008 3:01PM
I guess I'm the only one stoked about Space Siege?
