Forgot to mention that the ratings that were present last night were the final ratings. Only ones I remember were these:

Eagles: 96 OVR
Giants 74 OVR.

:lol Gimme a ****ing break EA.
The EA guys had to be yanking your chain.

Does anyone know how EA rates players on sports games?

I hope Warrick Dunn can hold onto the football this year. He was pretty crippled in 06 in comparison to the 05 version.

Considering how ridiculously overrated he was in 05, I don't think you can complain.

Then again if I was used to using super teams like you I guess I would complain too. :D

360 version will suck. Damn you idiots for not keeping your Xboxen!

FrenchMovieTheme said:
guys relax. madden 07 360 will be fine. the reality of the situation is that the game was not THAT far away from being "decent". there were some major issues (bad DB AI, jerky animations and movement) but there was also some good things to build on (top notch models, good atmosphere, better playcalling system). lets have confidence that tiburon will step up to the plate and deliver, as they have apparently done with NCAA.
There were a LOT of issues, but I think they were just pushing something out there for launch. It looks like this version will be using the same physics engine and 30 fps, btw. Hopefully, it's at least on par with the Xbox version and not stripped. The 360 controller is much better than the xbox controller for madden, IMO. Although, I would much rather have 60fps. :(

you know, if they can improve these three things, it will be a decent game.

-AI defense/controlling CB's on your own.
-Improved running game. This means the O-line being where they should be, not somewhere all the way the **** where they should not be.
-Online Play. The Lag was garbage. GARBAGE

-Actually, make it 4 things. I want Alt. Uni's. That cant be hard to put in!

That being said, Open field running and kickoff returns i felt were awesome. I hope they try to keep it simular to the way they were. the juke moves in the open field were sweet

Well I have no choice, I am getting the 360 version because my PS2 is on its last leg and I am not wasting money on a new one since I am getting a PS3.

CK: Here is why the Eagles rating is still high!

Cold: Unlike you, I am not a big McNabb fan. Truth be told, our season goes as far as the defense and number 36 takes us.

Eagles fan + Not a fan of Donovan does not compute. May i ask why?

ITs not gonna be as far as Westy can take us, as the ball is gonna be even all around on Offense. I look forward to seeing moats get time at RB also
 
julius jones? whatever happened to that guy? i remember after 2004 i heard "rabble rabble rabble julius jones is going to have a breakout year!" i can't even remember seeing him play last year at all

I've bought Madden every year this generation, and the Madden I am looking forward most to is the Wii version by far. I'll take the new controls over slightly better graphics anyday.

Although I wish that the passing system for the Wii version was more complex, as it screams "gimmick". Instead of pressing a button you press a button and make a motion.
Yet you still call this gimmick "new controls"... :lol and yes, I played Madden Wii. :)

Madden is one of the few sports games where I don't feel like the console version is extremely inferior to the PC version (I've yet to play a console baseball game that would turn me away from playing on PC). Still a PC league would be way more convenient for me.

LeBron loves his girlfriend. There is no other woman in the world he’d rather have. The problem is, Dwyane’s not a woman.
I call the Texans if we have a 360 league,I call a top 10 team if we have a ps2 league :p
 
frank gore has a documented learning disability! what is vince youngs excuse!?

p.s. lets not pick teams now, we all know who is getting who for the most part (although some regulars are going to have to fight it out to get their teams :D )

yep, odds are it will come down to a head to head matchup of some type (unless one party wants to budge.... which i wouldn't with the 49ers! all of you vultures will want them after the preseason is over and EA rates king alex a 99!)

My main problem with McNabb is he is not a leader. When things are going good he is all smiles but when the team is struggling to move the ball he mopes around and never shows any fire like a Dawkins or a Trotter. Also I hear people all the time say, how can you not like McNabb? Did you see that play on 3rd down where he scrambled for 7 seconds to make that great pass. Then I respond by saying, if he didn't throw those 2 previous passes in the dirty, then he would not had to go threw all that trouble. My favorite is when he holds onto the balls for 5+ seconds in the pocket, only to get stripped from behind. McNabb fans never seem to remember those plays. Don't get me wrong, I don't hate McNabb but I do realize what he really is, and that not a leader.

The Eagles sucked last year for one reason, the defense. The offense has been up and down since Reid has been headcoach but the defense has always been solid until last year. So if our defense is back to their old form then we will be in the playoffs again.

Just wait until he drops a wide open pass that would send the the superbowl in overtime, if not win it altogether.

Yes, im still bitter

you make me sick sir. and yes it IS a good thing there are no other packers fans on this board (lambtron doesn't count as he is absent from all madden-related events!)
I'm only absent because I didn't have Xbox Live (I think I played in a quick PS2 tournament once), but I do now! WATCH OUT.

There was a PS2 league.

Anyway, everyone knows the Raiders (coached by Rorschach) will win the next Madden league no matter the platform.

I love Madden but not enough to buy a 2nd version. And Xbox version was always my jam.

It seems like this year the Madden players are going to be spread out on different consoles versions. We might struggle to get a decent league going on any of the different versions. I know I am going 360 no matter what.
 
we will have plenty of players on 360 OR ps2. i would estimate that about 10 people in the league have BOTH a ps2 and 360, and there are anywhere from 5-10 other players for 360 and we can find at least 2 more players if its PS2 to make it a decent league
