Madden NFL 09 Review

[GreenDayFan625]

running looks horrible

[SaVoMaTiK]

madden 2005 >

[XWarxChief]

why do I still have madden 2002 and 2003....

[DeamWafflezz]

i swear this looks better than 10

[75adog]

I think that madden 09&10 are the best

[75adog]

I think that 09, and 10 are good maddens 12 looks dum

[Evan8787]

Best madden so far!

[WPAKaychow]

Better than 10 in my opinion

[MrAznPillow]

honestly "the 85 new features" added in this game are all gone in madden 12. its like EA thinks progression means taking out features to make next years a different game. all they've done is take out a bunch of stuff, and add all this stupid presentation elements. honestly its not that great and they're still missing a ton of stuff to be accurate with what you see on sundays. the only gameplay element they have done in the past 3 years is slow down gameplay. no fixes and no physics engine

[CallToArmsFellowship]

can you play ncaa 09 and import players from there to the draft on madden 09

[BrokenLightPole]

@CallToArmsFellowship Yes.

[dblbeats]

Were are the Refs on the fields?..Madden Moments WTF?..ESPN had that first..Madden 12 player intros????..they had that on Madden 07...$60.00 roster upgrade each year..wow

[Snogale]

crapgo

[xxztopcommentxxz]

listen to this im agine all the new feutures from madden 10 and 11 combined with with madden 09s td celebrations and that virtual stuff that would. oh and the new takels from madden 12 that would make a kick ass game that would leave 2k football fanboys in the dust

[MrKooljax]

love how you could get extra dirty in madden 09

[yonsuckas]

Madden 08 and 09 were the best.

[1227weaverb]

madden 04

[LyricalMasterMind1]

sum of these comments lol! Madden 09 was a water down mess! worst madden along wit 07

[shreddintheaxe]

@LyricalMasterMind1 no, madden 09 kicked ass. and yet it's still the best madden out there

[LyricalMasterMind1]

@shreddintheaxe The sound track was good! and sum of the features they had was iight, but the game play was a disappointment.

[shreddintheaxe]

@LyricalMasterMind1 well it's not much as a disappointment as madden 12.

[KGBJay]

i got the Collector's Edition yesterday at GameStop for 4,99$

[totalrap55]

@KGBJay yo man i want to get that too, but do you get head coach and the bonus still? plz help

[KGBJay]

@totalrap55 yeah man you do

[xxztopcommentxxz]

@KGBJay how is it

[GEOsportcenter]

madden 09 ftw

[EscobaroWhite]

madden 08 was the best

[LoganfarbarTV]

when he talked about the shaking camera for hits when I make a big hit my tv screen goes blue instead:) IT IS SO EFFING AWESOME

[99dannyjames]

best madden eva!!!! only 2.99 at gamestop for 360!!!1

[shreddintheaxe]

Espn Nfl 2k5 And Madden Nfl 09 are the best football games ever made

[millionminimagicmice]

Madden 09 had the best rosters and no other Madden game will come close to it.

[eXpLiiiSiT]

NFL 2K5 is my favorite <3 But MADDEN 11 is my fav madden so far.

[HIIMDAVID12345555]

Madden Nfl 09 is my crack

[MegaViper666]

this game sucks! the QB release time was so annoying!

[DatMangoSentinel]

best madden is 08

[FFIIInerd]

I got this game for free I was like maaan I need a sports game cause my friend he already had Madden NFL 11 and ironically there is a Madden NFL 11 tournament at my school and he is like "man im prolly gonna be playin 11 more so you can have Madden NFL 09" biggest mistake of his life and the best of mine

[shreddintheaxe]

madden 09 still kicks ass

[wakkyvideogroup]

This is the worst game in the series. DON'T BOTHER.

[dsrevo79]

i still play this game... awesome stuff

[NewEnglandPats94]

if you want to buy a madden game don't waste your money on madden 11 go and buy madden 09

[dgbillybobjoe93]

i wish maddens 10 and 11 had kept that whole touchdown celebration option stuff thumbs up if u agree

[feepque]

Love madden<3 But I like 11 cuz the graphics kinda flipps me off. And that is cuz I get a headache by the visual effects and stuff:(

[joannesiano]

does this game have roster updates?

[chaingangpatriot]

whats the song at :36

[debbider]

Whats the point of the sprint button in this game when it does nothing,QB'S get run down by fat blockers with ease all the time.

[MaddenReviewer]

For madden 09 reviews go to my account ill be making more and more soon ive only got one up currently

GO CHARGERS

[debbider]

One of the worst games ever,so many easy one on one missed tackles,every penalty in the game always goes against you,every time you run with the quarterback he fumbles it,disgrace of a game.

[kr3w445]

haha i have 10 and 11 and 07 but i hear this one is really good

[otherwize12]

great review, gonna buy this game=D

[Anoush13]

I still think this is the best Madden game ever! Better than any that came before, and so far better than Madden 10 and 11!

[bts1995]

@Anoush13 i know as the years pass. Madden 09 has been better than madden 10 and 11.

[youurr]

@Anoush13 just wait till u play madden 12

[formallyknownasyou]

@Anoush13 I couldn't agree with you more!

[MrIPawd]

@Anoush13 Wow i guess I'm lucky I got this game.

[MrPickelish]

6 dollars at gamestop, I'm buying this shit lol!!

[TheCuriousTaco]

@MrPickelish i got it two days ago and its fuckin cheap

[tibta4tibta]

got a question. i have ncaa 09 and im doing a campus legend. can i import my legend after he graduates to madden 09 or will i have to get madden 10. another question can i even do that. PLZ ANSWER!!!!!!!!!!

[jackedblob]

@tibta4tibta yea man do it

[tibta4tibta]

@jackedblob yea dude i made a CB hes pretty beast.

[jakee901]

whats the difference between the regular and collecters?

[555MARCUS666]

its funny how madden has focused on presentation for like 5 years now and they still dont get it right. i could make the presentation better. any die-hard football fan could.

it will be interesting to see how long EA can get away with making little changes to its game and making us pay 60+ for it. i mean when we get to MADDEN 14 and their still trying to make good presentation and changes to the way i control my QB then it will be time to let 2K have a shot dont ya think? or somebody else.

[bts1995]

@555MARCUS666 im going to like this comment because u took 15 mins to write it

[BrokenLightPole]

how many people play madden 09 online now amma geta 360 and get it

[legacy101desire]

@BrokenLightPole Well you should get 2011. Comes out August 10th. Well if you do get live u could add my gt.

[FGAngelx]

@BrokenLightPole ima play it when i get it tomorrow =] whats your GT? message me it

[bkstyle82]

@FGAngelx I have a somewhat dumb question. Is it possible to still find old rosters for this 09 game. I'm not talking about up to date rosters but rosters that were accurate as of the end of that season?? I have an xbox and I heard people trash madden 10 and 11. I could essentially update the rosters myself and just draft players from the NCAA 09 game.

[FGAngelx]

@bkstyle82 yeah the rosters stay with their year....their not really like the 2K games were they update the roster for you automatically and yeah you can do that by drafting in NCAA free agents or your own guy =]

[ammofan]

do ppl still play this online on 360?

[thegreenghost1000]

@ammofan yes

[TINKYSKATES]

@ammofan yeah

[TehN3rdShow]

GO RAMS!

[dudefromgermany]

this is better then madden 11

[iPaulTube]

@dudefromgermany Best Madden games were 08 for the Ps2. 09 for ps3 and 10 for ps3. 08 had superstar mode, 09 was great with all the amount of juke and defensive moves. and 10 just had really pretty graphics. 11 is complete skip. I will wait til Madden 12..

[ARappersBestFriend]

madden 09 - The good- Touchdown celebrations The BAD- everything.......WHY DID EA TAKE OFF THE RADIO GUY TONY BRUNO!!!! CHECK MADDEN 07 WHICH WAS THE BEST HANDS DOWN. HE MADE EVERYTHING SEEM LIVE AND REAL. THE ANNOCENERS SUCK BAD AND THEY TOOK OFF CELEBRATIONS ON MADDEN 10..BUT MADDEN 10 IS GOOD. MADDEN ALWAYS SEEM TO FUCK SOMETHING GOOD UP. LONG LIVE 2K5!

[liltae904]

madden suck but u lik football games and madden is the only non-corny football game.2k was......basiclly better. all ea did with madden was create small insignificant "features" each year. thats all thier doin eating your money each year 60 dollars i say go by 2k5 for 6ix dollars and save 60 buck lik i do evrey year i know this commet is long but madden 10...... all they did was made pro tak and fighting for the ball when u make a fumble thier no new graphics we gamers need a new better madden

[555MARCUS666]

madden 09 ps2 is better, and as a matter of fact the "game" since madden 06, . . . on the ps2. we havent seen a great game on the next-gen yet. until EA has competition, they will only improve or create small insignificant "features" each year.

[ineedalifeLTD]

was the footage of the training the superstar mode or wat was it

[ElPapi997]

Yes! I just picked it up! its 2010 but idc I got halo 3 3 weeks ago so wht hate on tht call me old school this game is fun!

[DJx79x]

your not old school your broke lol but no shame in that

[ElPapi997]

Agree on this betetr than 10!

[jake9308]

nice interception run but i couldve gotten past those guys its very easy

[ForgottenCavalry]

09 way better then all

[GoBrownCelticsPats]

not as good as 10 but it is aight and go browns

[matthewis4life]

i liked 09 td celebration i hate that its not in madden 10

[sum41addict87x]

madden 09 was the only madden i truly hated

[theLamps1512]

i think it is fun

[nighttrainrb32]

i bought the collectors edition and i ended up playing head coach 10x more because 09 was flat out bad.

[DuskbyDay]

I hate 09. 07 had the best additions.

[kieran377]

i like 09 better than 10

[6sharks]

The collectors edition is now 20 bucks used :P

[jjxjetplane]

In the back track feature, if you dont pass the ball in a specific second will the WR still catch the ball?

[seantonbomb777]

do they have the training from about 3:40 to 3:55 available for PS2

[tnaandwwerulez11]

no i don't think so

[The904scooby]

i luve how they shown most of da jaguars gameplay! JAGS 4life

[benas619]

lol Seahawks 41 | Jaguars 0... Can't see how you like them..

[gutfray]

i loved madden 09 but madden 10 is better

[kerpal3]

madden sucks i wish they still had 2k

[75Terron]

ME TOO! 2k5 was the best ever until madden bought all of the nfl rights to make a football game so we don't have a choice anymore.

[mastaplaya56]

ive only played 09 and 10 and i have a feeling that ill get 11 even if it is "the same game" well this "same game" to me is still a hell lotta fun

[Raiden1770]

Im knew to the madden series and i wuz considerin buyin this game i can pick it up for bout 13 pounds but i have heard many bad reviews. as im not a hardcore fan i wont imagine ill spot all the faults or compare it to the previous games so shud i buy it?

[xboxgw]

u should buy it. the bad reviews u read r from hardcore players because this game is geared to the more casual players like me and u.

[fatboytj07]

MADDEN SUCKS AND IS THE SAME GAME REGARDLESS OF WAT ANYBODY ELSE TELLS U. I've BEEN PLAYIN MADDEN SINCE YOU HAD TO BLOW THE CARDRIGE. This game has went far from the game we knew and loved. NOW ITS CHEATS AND GLITCHES. I HAVE IT AND HAVE NO REASON TO LIE.

[Carolinaman09]

Well said. LMAO They didn't seat back and relax like 2KSports with MLB (MLB2k9=unplayable glitch fest).

[ohiostate700]

what is better for wii madden 10 or madden 09

[FierceTrojans]

[mistopain]

[EraFilmEnterprises]

You know what As much as I like the always improved graphics I DON't want a exaclty real looking game...

[CoolDog202]

[shahrukhw]

Thanks for your awareness if you do not warn i would have been dead till now

[vaIdarez]

Most authentic game play ever seen in a sports game? This IGN reviewer is either a joke, or completely incompetent. Either way, he should NOT be reviewing football games.

[ubercoolgaming]

might get it even tough i know more about star-trek than footbal but looks so awsome

[GTurismo356]

I think that the backtrack system is pretty cool. I think the rewind thing is a joke. It is still the same game as last year

[MrDuke32]

This game is just awful. They just throw it out there because they know people will buy it.

The virtual trainer shit is stupid too. They put that it there to try to make it seem like they did something new. That shit is so gay.

Fuck EA Sports.

[Monstar203718]

No homo, I love u!!! I've been saying that for ever and alot of people defend it!. NFL 2k5 is the greatest the greatest football game (gameplay) wise ever. Look at (apexisfree)'s videos comparing naden 09 to nfl 2k5 and 2k5 blows piece of shit madden out of the water. BRING BACK REAL 2K FOOTBALL! 2K SPORTS DESERVES A NFL LICENSE!!

[king5oh]

i think the game looks like shit the movement when you turn alittle while running reminds me of a ps1 madden

[vdhcanada11]

[LJisdabest12]

Can anyone tell me weather it's worth getting this game or should I wait until Backbreaker comes out???????? PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[secretJammyS]

the weather is good indeed

[PerryPHBSA]

This depends on the system you have. If you have a ps3 or xbox 360, get it, it is outstanding. If you have a ps2 its decent. But i would wait for backbreaker. If you have a PSP its really good i recomend gettin it. On the DS i would say no its hard because of the Duel screens. the normal Xbox game is terrible, bad graphics. On the wii it depends. The wii doesn't have the best graphics but if u like getting into the action i would recommend gettin it.

[LJisdabest12]

Thanks Alot!! This really helps because I really was unsure. Again, Thanks.

[PerryPHBSA]

No problem man

[AMGproducton]

get this game it will last for a while and it never gets old, Backbreaker is fun but not like madden
