Madden 2008
 
What's up Madden fans. Have any of you thought about how POWERFUL our Madden 08 team will be?

I know this may seem "small" to some of you, but because our team is DA BOMB this year it will be even better on Madden 08,

Can you imagine little boys fighting to be THE SAINTS when it is time to play that game?

People my age are lifelong Cowboy fans because they were fans as kids. Hopefully, we will attract some lifelong fans with this season.

True

PS. I have yet to beat my 10 year old son in Madden 07 while using the Saints. But I will definitely make him cry when Madden 08 comes out.

I've told myself after 07 that I will never buy another Madden again. It's the same thing and playbooks every year. It's getting kind of boring.

True, but you WILL buy Madden 08. We will dominate.

I buy it because of my son. :oops:

I have thought about this alot, the offense will be SOOOO much fun to play with. I'm hoping they add some new features to make it easier to use Reggie as a receiver and running back, without having to go to substitutions everytime. I think this years focus will be on the WR in the game. Being that they focused on the Defense a few years ago, the QB last year, and the RB this past year.

My defense sucks. What formation are you using on defense?

RE: Re: Madden 2008
 
It depends on what offensive play he is using. 2 WR set, use the 4-3, 3-4, or 46 defense. 3 wr set, nickel package. 4 WR set, dime or quarter package, 5 WR set, quarter package. I try to have a CB on every WR he has on the field.

Any of you feel like playin on xbox360 my screen name is the same as it is here but there is a space between Faitus and Jeebs. I hope my game can predict the future. Although I had a slightly better season than the real Saints I am in the Superbowl now and this matchup may actually occur between the Saints and Colts. Can't wait to finish that one out. GO SAINTS and see you guys online.

Perhaps Drew Brees makes the cover. If so, I'd buy it.

thib82 01-17-2007 03:11 PM

I play on 360. Screen name CajunGodfather. I will send you a friend request.

It is a Madden Curse that whomever is on the cover of Madden gets hurt that season..it be a season ending injury or out for a few weeis. i would rather see LT or someone else make the cover instead of one of our Saints...

It's always fun to see the overall ratings before I start playing each new Madden.

I figure they should be as follows. Going this far into the playoffs really helped. Rough estimates

D. Brees - 97 overall
D. McAllister - 90 overall
R. Bush - 90 overall, 90 hands
M. Colston - 91 overall, 95 hands
M. Karney - 92 overall
J. Brown - 94 overall
C. Grant - 90 overall
W. Smith - 94 overall

Fred Thomas- 75 overall, 43 speed :lol:

For the years, I have played with Madden, I hated having Aaron Brooks at quarterback. It seemed everytime I would get in the opponents territory, some programmer would always have Brooks being picked off like clockwork. I haven't had a chance to play the latest Madden out on the PS3. I heard they really beefed up the Saints. I can only imagine how dangerous we'll be in Madden 08. WHO DAT!

pakowitz 01-19-2007 12:43 AM

PS3 = waste of money

Sounds like real life.


For all of those that don't like to keep going to substitutions to use Reggie in the game, build your own formations and plays that are similar to the ones the Saints use in real life. I've done it and it makes my offense extremely hard to stop. And, don't let anybody tell you you're 'cheating' because you use your own playbook. It's not cheating, it's football smarts.

Also, I thought the Hall of Fame mode has made the latest Madden worth the purchase. If you're not happy with the playbooks, make your own.
