Madden NFL 06

good on next gen???

Strengths: great graphics, unbelivable gameplay, NO MORE JOHN MADDEN!! explosive tackles.

Weakness: there are some features that are missing from the original xbox verison including NFL superstar.

Madden is the power house in video game football; and for at least the next 5 or more years it is the only one since EA is the only video game maker with rights to the NFL license. I am overall disappointed in maddens loss of features; but online play should not be disappointing. Graphics are amazing and game play makes you fell like you are on the field. Annoying john madden wont be running his...

Madden 06

Strengths: graphics of player and stadium detail are great

Weakness: options, letter and word size font

there is no play review, letter, plays, words, and clock are very small, no franchise options like on prior games, prior games have better options, i was saddly dissapointed. i suggest waiting for next years madden.

Only if you want to play football

Strengths: Visually amazing, smooth gamplay, easier running and passing game

Weakness: Every aspect of the single player experience is non existant.

I love this game. I just wanted to put that out there because there are quite a few issues with this game. First the franchise mode is very dumbed downed compared to previous versions, the create a fan, player, superstar modes are alson absent. All this being said the game is still great for those who just wanna play, Running and passing is solid, online is great, but could be better. The...

Madden NFL 06

Strengths: Good graphics

Weakness: Not many game modes, less than regular xbox version

Madden 06 has very good graphics on the 360 version, the game play is also good, but it's missing a lot of modes from the xbox version, and doesn't have any new stuff. If you want to play football on the 360, this is your only option, but sadly, its been scaled down. Hopefully next year's version will have it all.

this is suppose to be madden?

Strengths: the players have realistic bodies and they really get dirty when they're in the rain and the snow.

Weakness: there are alot of things in this game that you are use to having in madden that your not going to get the biggest is no challenges what!?!? yes if they say its a fumble then you cant argue

other than the fact you cant you cant make challenges, or creat players or teams or even stadiums, oh and the players do not have the tattoos that the real player have, Thats sorta a major take away from the game when your playing with someone like vick who has alot of "body art" so actually i would probably advise to take a minor hit from graphics and get this game on x box and not on 360...

A $15-20 GAME RIGHT NOW

Strengths: GRAFICS-THAT'S IT?????

Weakness: LOST ALOT IN MY OPINION-FRANCHISE MODE SHORT OF MOST OF PAST FRAN. MODES, REPLAY CHALLENGES, TOO MUCH FUMBLES WHEN IT'S A PASS UNLESS U R THE COM., LETTERS TOO SMALL, DOES NOT TOTALLY FEEL LIKE IT HASW

SINCE IT TOOK OVER THE RIGHTS FOR THE NFL LAST YR I FIGURED IT WOULD FAIL--SO THOSE WHO LOVE TO PLAY FOOTBALL R STUCK PLAYING THIS TITLE...WHY? NEED COMPETITION TO SUCCEED IN BEING #1 SORRY THIS GAME IS ONLY WORTH $15-20 AT MOST. WHERE IS ESPN WHEN YOU NEED THEM AT LEAST THEIR $20 GAME WAS LIKE GOLD!!!! I AM SURPRISED MADDEN PUT HIS NAME ON THIS GAME MAYBE THAT'S WHY HE'S NOT DOING THE COMMENTARY...

Madden NFL 06 for Xbox 360

Strengths: Graphics

Weakness: All you have is great graphics and less features!

Not much different then the old version, it's been scaled down to exclude mini camp and other features in exchange for great graphics. The QB vision is bad and not only do you have to worry about the defenders, you now have to aim a cone at the receivers.

Great Graphics but missing a lot

Strengths: Graphics

Weakness: No fair-game play mode on X-Box Live, no challenges, lacking franchise mode

I play this game a lot, but that's probably because football is my favorite video game sport to play. The graphics are great, but it is missing a lot of typical Madden features. Missing: No fair-game play mode on X-Box Live Cannot Challenge plays Lacking franchise mode (no training camp) Create-a-player With the football season over I would not purchase this game now. But, if you have to play...

Good, but I wanted more

Strengths: Great Graphics Excellent Sound No madden speaking

Weakness: Not as deep as the other system versions Seems a little rushed

I've always loved the Madden series so I was excited to get this when I finally got the 360. Graphics are great and only get me excited to see future installments. The problems come when comparing it directly to the other xbox's version. The franchise gives you much less, and I really don't understand why all of the good aspects of the lesser versions didn't port to this. All in all it is fun to...
