Metareview - Madden NFL 07 (Xbox 360)

Aug 30th 2006 4:53PM (Joystiq)
For all of you people who are defending Madden, stop now while you are ahead. Madden 07 is without a doubt, one of the worst disappointments for the 360 so far. Its a great game? No way. There are over 10 known glitches, bugs and holes in this game. Fatigue? No such thing, Fantasy draft? nope. Defensive playmaker come back? No again.

BUT WAIT!!! There are SOME POSITIVES!!! Like an HUGE disconnect glitch, where people can give you a loss and disconnect rating at any point during the game! yay! How about using the line crash option and run stop option and having your DT's move around like butter on a hot plate and going offsides every play! alright! How about saving your audibles in-game and it not saving anything at all? Disconnecting during XBOX Live when you have no feature team set?

2 words for you... exclusive licensing. You know the old saying, competition is good for everyone? Its completely true and especially true in this case. EA flat out does not care about their consumers on this front. Dont get me wrong, EA is a great company and they can make a great product when they care, but in this case, they dont. They have the licensing for an NFL product, and they know they dont have to work to earn your loyalty or business. They are the only show, and they know it. O well... hopefully their "next-gen" offering wont suck so bad.
