Maybe it my age is starting to show, but damn going to require some practice for me to even compete offline forget about online.

Just throw a lot of slant/crossing passes. I played it for a few minutes at Game Crazy and couldn't be stopped on All-Pro.

Also I hope to pick it up at Blockbuster today, but no guarantees.

Played 08 for about 10 mins. I had so many games last year I was playing I couldnt get into it. Also, I was intimidated by the amount of options, I just wanted to play football. Now that my games library is dwindling I'll put some effort into getting better at this one.

07 and 08 are a lot harder too.. they changed around the controls.

They are trying to make it easier for new players to pick it up and play. But on the other hand they are adding more features (i.e. Bluffing on-screen routes) for advanced players. If I can find a copy I will try to rent it tonight and add a few of you to my 360 friends list (Son1cSpeed is my gamertag).

Well I wasn't able to rent a copy of Madden 09.

I might just pick up a copy of 07 for $5 at Gamestop.

09 is amazing in my opinion..Ive played both ncaa and madden for the last three years..Both better in there own ways. Some different options in game in ncaa than in Madden, althought 09 is very tough, which makes it fun and makes you get into the game if your a big football fan. Favorite thing that they added to Madden since 08 was that at the goal line then could finally hop over the line into the endzone.
