Xbox 360 PS3

EA released a Madden NFL 09 demo last week, together with the Facebreaker demo. The game itself hit the stores in both Europe and the US next week, and we captured a video here showing the game for those that haven't been able to try it out.

EA press release:
The 20th anniversary of Madden NFL football is less than two weeks away! Gamers can check out Madden NFL 09, the first sports game that adapts to you, with the Madden NFL 09 demo that is now available on Xbox Live and Playstation Network. Players can try out the new Virtual Trainer mode, which allows users to customize the difficulty and gameplay settings, as well as preview the new Madden Moments game mode.

At the start of the demo, players can get a sneak peak of the new Virtual Trainer mode as they are immediately dropped into the Madden Test - used to assess a players Madden IQ. Throughout the game, a player’s Madden IQ is constantly updated and adjusted, as are the difficulty and play settings which are based on the Madden IQ. The Madden Test consists of four core game play mechanics: Passing, Rushing, Pass Defense, and Rush Defense.

Madden Moments allows gamers to replay a team's key moment from the 2007 NFL season. In the demo, the Giants Super Bowl-winning drive is the featured Madden Moment. Players will take over the reins of Eli Manning and the Giants with about two minutes to go and attempt to score and walk away with the NFL championship.

Madden NFL 09 is scheduled for release on August 12 and introduces over 85 new features and enhancements. Madden NFL 09 also includes a brand-new broadcast presentation package featuring Cris Collinsworth and Tom Hammond, online leagues, and the most realistic graphics in franchise history.

Madden is just a good fun football game to play and it is basically the only football games that come out. I mean I hope you arent the type of person that thinks that if you for example play a guitar you dont have to play guitar hero. Real football is better but lighten up it is just a good game to play especially with friends.

Somehow I don't think the Wii could even display those grass textures never mind run the game at 60 fps with the high polygon count on evidence here! ;)
