All over the world...
Havent really seen anyone mention this game, so was wondering if anyone picked up a copy??.
I got my copy last week with TDU and Dead Rising and tbh i havent really played it much...too busy with TDU and Dead Rising...well played that once or twice but bored the hell out of me..dunno what im gonna do with it...maybe give it another chance sometime soon...anyways i had a quick game last night where i lost to the Eagles:(:mad:...wasnt too happy with that result as my Giants seemed to be all over the place.
Have to say its pretty good especially if your into NFL, if not then you wouldnt find it interesting to say the least.

Compared to Madden 06 which i still have and completed...think its the only game i got the full 1000pt achievements so far lol. But compared to the 06 game, the 07 one is a lot more difficult...the AI seems a lot better and makes for some interesting playing. Also having a quick look at the achievement board, seems like they have juggled things about so its not as easy as it was with 06 to get achievements anymore....seems to be more tied in with career and season best ie hit 10000 yds rushing career wise and you get an achievement.

Anyways anyone else has any opinions on it or am i the only person who has this game??.
 
I'm playing it now, just doing the franchise.
It's also impossible for us to get 1000/1000 as one of the achievements requires you to import a roster from NCAA'07 into Madden and the former is unreleased in this country.

I think everything about this game is better thus far, the interface is terrific and I love the soundtrack. The sparkly team logo's look terriffic. Seems to be a LOT more depth in this version than the clearly rushed '06 edition (which I also loved).

I traded in my '06 and got '07 but haven't had a chance to play it yet because I been so tied up with Dead Rising!

I'm a big fan of the series though. My only regret is that I forgot about completing all the achievements on the old one before I traded it in. :(

Yeh i noticed that achievement but ive got my bro in Canada whos sending me a copy, dont know if it will work on my 360 though as i have a uk spec one...hopefully it will therefore i cant get the full 1000pts...if not then ill just send it back to him where he can either play it or take it back for a refund.

This game is definitely better than the 06 one, i love the mini camp bit and also the lead blocker bit in the game...makes it much more interesting and fun i think.

Tonight i think is NFL night for me, time to give TDU a rest and maybe just maybe even play a bit of Dead Rising but i have a feeling DR is going to be gathering a lot of dust...damn these special edition metal cases lol:p
 
Keep meaning to pick this up, will pobably wait until someone gets bored and sells it cheaply. Then i'll be happy to show you up on the field Spawn :p
 
I got a copy for the PC and have started playing my way through the Hall of Fame career mode as a running back. Have pretty good stats (90 overall \o/), and was drafted by the Bears. Don't see as much playing time as I'd like (if we have a 3rd or 4th down I'm generally not there, and I don't play much during the 2nd half of the game), but I'm hoping that will change. I may well pick it up on the 360 at some point as I do love playing for achievements and I think it's the type of game much more suited to consoles.
 
Hi all

I got this on the PC and think its great! :p

I have the problem that All-Pro is too easy and All-Madden is too hard :mad:

On defense who do you pick to "play" with at the "snap" :confused:

Has anyone managed to master the lead blocker controls, i havent and have found it quite confusing, or is that just me :rolleyes:

Cheers :)

I'd love this game too as I prefer college football, but unfortunately the game is NTSC coded so I don't think it will work on your PAL 360.

Arghhh that sucks:(, oh well will have to email him and tell him not to bother...hopefully if they bring out a region free copy then ill pick that up. If not then ill just pop over to Canada, play it on my bros 360 and hopefully pick up that achievement :p.

The game doesn't work, it's US only, however you could get him to send a draft file on a memory card.

Ah ha smart fella, ill see if he can do that for me...if he can then it saves me money and a lot of time...well i do need to get my ass to Canada to check up on my house thats being built over there.
 
If you manage to procure a draft file I would be very appreciative if you would login to my profile and perform the achievement for me. I would hate to have 990/1000 because it would just look stupid.

Ill see what i can do, if anything ill send it over to you once ive spoken to my bro and see what he can do...
 
Got it as well. Seems really good. Add me to your friends list if you want an easy win ;)

gamertag is JPMslither

btw has anybody played online yet? Seems quite laggy. Haven't had this problem on other games. Mind you all the games have been against the yanks so I don't know if that makes any difference
 
I've got this on the PC, great game.

Anyone else suffered from the replay bug yet mind? Seems to be a really common problem with the PC version and certain gamepads.

Sooo frustrating, intercepted a pass on my 20 yard line and ran it all the way up to score a TD. Was a pretty mint run with a few dinks and spins, so decided to watch a replay. Opened it up, watched the replay and then realised theres no way to exit replay mode!!!!!

Hmmm nope cant say ive seen that problem on the 360 version but then again i havent really had much of a chance to play it as TDU has been taking up the majority of my gaming time, such an addictive game although can be fustrating lol:p.
Really need to start my NY Giants franchise as well, so far only played a quick game with the Eagles where i lost:(...stupid QB kept throwing interceptions lol.
