I was going through the Madden 07 review @ IGN.com ...

Now... the graphics and all aren't up to par.... they said it was a small step above the Gamecubes... but I am sure this will improve once EA gets the hang of developing for the Wii. The sound was pretty good.

BUT THERE IS ONE SEGMENT OF CONTROL COMMENTs that caught my eye...
here they are:
A Different Game of Football
Is Madden 07 necessarily a better game of football than the other console versions? We obviously can't speak for everyone, but we can definitely say we had more fun with it in general. The game is definitely a bit different from the other Madden 07 attempts though, and that will definitely come into player for diehard fans.


Confused? Press 1.

For starters, the general gameplay is faster, more physical, and more rewarding than a standard game of Madden. With all the offensive weapons available to players with the Wii controller, pulling off evasive moves is simpler than ever before, which makes the ground game more of a weapon than other versions of the game. Lead Blocker mode alone makes the experience of a smash-mouth ground game more intense, and adding in the ability of runners to juke to the side, stiff arm a defensemen and break tackles nearly simultaneously with quick motions. It has gotten to the point where we'll see a line backer dashing towards us, and rather than feeling helpless to stop him we're debating the best way to make him look silly or shove his ass to the ground. Along those same lines, the passing game is insane, as QB precision can be used along with quick passing to smoke a zone defense more effectively. What this means is that Madden 07 is more rewarding on the offense side of the ball, but it also has generally higher scoring games and more candidates for the highlight reel. Is this all part of making the game more entertaining for causal gamers? We definitely think it plays a part.

I like hearing that they had more fun with this Madden than other versions. See... I think the Wii controllers have many great applications... and the way we will play games just got more innovative and it's fresh.

We'll have to see... but Who knows... maybe Nintendo stumbled upon the best formula for this generation of consoles. Time will tell... and so will the interests of the players during the next few years.

It's too bad Nintendo didn't include some kind of football in the Wii Sports. That way I could get a taste. I mean, the Wii Sports baseball makes me want to get a real baseball game.
