Madden NFL 09 (PlayStation Portable, 2008)

i just bought Madden 09 for the psp. i have not gotten it yet but i have played the wii one. (i rented it)very fun game. Madden 09 wii has many new cool stuff like 5 on 5 mode and superstar challenge from the 2007 and 2008 season, you get to go back in the past and play big events for a team. for example the superbowl Giants .vs. Patriots. so that is superstar challenge.
5 on 5 mode is you get to have 5 players like the quarterback wide receiver and running back. they go animated and not like animated in quick play i mean cartoon kinda and the funny part they have a big head, i mean the size of pumpkin! some other cool things is you get to party like a true fan when you make a touchdown! you get shake your wii romote all around and dance like you never have before! and if you dance hard you might just improve all your players stats in the game! (i mean one or two will make a big play!)
now heres something awesome ROOKIE MODE AND ROOKIE CHALLENGE! lets start with rookie mode, remember in Madden 08 where you had to press a button to throw and move your arm at the same time? WELL thats GONE!! you dont have to press any buttons unless you pick a play and do fancy moves and stuff like that, you get to just move your arm like your throwing the football and throws to whoever is open! (dont worry they have huge dots and when they are red that means they are not open but when they are green, make sure you throw!)Here is a wii exclusive (5 on 5 is a wii exclusive too) CALL YOUR SHOTS! just pick a play running or passing then if you decide you dont like it call your shots you get to change the play and i dont mean pick a new one i mean make a new one you use a wii remote and just drag the line to wear you want to go oh and remember if you make a great play, remember to press the plus button not B button (if im not mistaken)it will erase the play and you will sadley have to do it all over again, that stinks. i almost forgot about rookie challenge! you get to create your own rookie put his info in and stuff like that. This i think is the best thing in the game! you sign up for the NFL get drafted to a team go to training camp hire a agent if your lucky and you do good in camp you will be a starter and if you play for a couple of years you might turn into a super star! its also the best off-field rooke challenge football game ever! you get to star in a movie you get to be interveiwed and start in the NFL kickoff its a blast! Ok last but not least Franchise mode you get to pick your own team and either simulate or play in every game its kinda cool but not the best in the game. well theres lots more stuff but i only told you things you like most. really fun game and if you see this game in stores for wii BUY IT! its worth your money! (trust me).

I was a little disappointed by the game play graphics, players are a little fuzzy and sometime hard to control. As a long time fan of the Madden series, i have always enjoyed the game. They made some changes in the latest edition, expanding some areas, while taking away others. I was dissapointed that the create a player option was no longer available, you are only able to create a player through the SuperStat opition. The expanded training camp is good, also. Overall, it's a good game that I would recommend to anybody, especially those already familiar with Madden.

Although with not many changes from last year's Madden, you have to respect the fact that this game has been around for 20 years, and that Brett Farve is on the cover of this game. If you already have Madden 08, and really like it, stick with it, unless you want to try out this version of Madden which has a little better graphics and an updated roster. The other improvement in the game is that you won't see people jump superhuman heights like Madden 08 and intercept your pass out of nowhere. The game is still fun even if you don't play online, but you should since the online play has improved from last year's Madden. Other than it's just last year's Madden again.

The price of new games at the stores are extremely expensive. My grandson wanted a certain game and we decided to go to Ebay for the product. He actually wanted the Madden 10, but we couldn't find one for the PSP so we went to Ebay where we have made purchases before. My grandson love it and couldn't wait for it to come in the mail. Thank you

Great value and hours of fun. My son plays it all the time so i would say its a fun game. He is 10 years old. I've played it and the graphics are top notch. I enjoy it. Controls are fairly easy to use and multiple mode make it great for everyone. Players are up to date.
