(of course it doesn't show everything as well since the videos have their own framerate issues)

So far both versions have gotten 8 reviews from the same places, here is where they stand:

Cheat CC gives both a 9.2/10
Gametrailers gives both a 9.0/10
Game Informer gives both an 8.0/10
Gamernode, GameSpot, and 1UP give the 360 version a 9.0/10, the PS3 8.5/10
GameSpy gives the 360 a 4.5/5, PS3 a 4/5
IGN gives 360 an 8.7/10, PS3 a 7.7/10

EA says:

Thank you for your feedback regarding the issues you've found with Madden NFL 08 for the PlayStation 3 game console. While we fully understand your frustration with the limitations the technology has placed against the video frames per second of the game play on the PlayStation 3 game console, it was out intent to put out the best possible with Madden across 10 platforms. While it is very simple to draw a conclusion based on the end-user experience with the game technology, what most people do not realize is hours of research which goes into fully understanding the hardware demands for each console. In the case of the next-generation consoles, many publishers have been developing titles for the Xbox 360 for over 3 1/2 years while everyone who publishes now for the PlayStation 3 with the exception of Sony has been developing for the PlayStation 3 for only a little over one full year. The differences in the overall knowledge of the hardware is vastly different for both consoles and, as is the case with newer technology, it is very difficult to get it right the first time. As for frame-rate differences, 30 frames per second is the same for all PS 3 football games this year, not just Madden but also NCAA Football, and 2K Sports' offering as well. If you choose not to purchase the game, it is a choice fully understand and respect. Please know that I have passed your feedback and observations on to the game team and hopefully someone within their team will be able to address this matter further.

Sincerely,

Anyone play both versions? Or even a current-gen version and a last-gen version?

3 1/2 years and its still buggy as sh*t:lol:

I saw this article awhile go. It's interesting to think this guy knows what 2k is doing. He thinks he's 100% confirming 2k's sh*t

haha, It'll be funny it ap2k9 runs in 60fps.

as for the ps3 version. If the 360 version sucks at 60fps, well the ps3 is going to suck even worse.

Every game has bugs dude, NBA 2K7 has it's share but that doesn't mean the game sucks.

This is the best Madden in a whiiile.... since Madden 05.



WAIT.


ESPN2K5 (best football game ever) was out then.... for the last good Madden.

APF2K8 just came out and now this Madden is good again........

Coincidence????

:ROFL:


Please, it's only good because they've addressed the bugs from some of the last games.

I'm not saying its bad gameplay. but they never pay attention until like you shown, until there's a competitor.

F*ck ea. I don't know how you can take their bull man. lol

Well the 360 version is better I suppose, but I still don't know what's up with Gametrailers PS3 videos they all look way too bright.



That's what my PS3 looks like right now, not a great shot or anything and normally it doesn't look that dark but I've never seen the bright, washed out look that they always show.
