Guest Stefkov Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 ps2 "Wii" i really really doubt it. It will be nicer that the PS2 probably but that much.....naaaaaa (tried to find as close as possible pics) Just look at the grass, and the smoothness of the players.

Fresh Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 I'm still not sure. They have said all along that the wii will be capable of good stuff. But those pictures.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCK Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 It'd be nice if we'd have some comparison. The Wii has no game that gets to that level of graphics (maybe SMG but the style is incomparable) so I'll be skeptical until conformation. If this comes out to be true (and keeping up a decent 30 fps with that), that will be awesome indeed - that means that the gap 360/PS3 <> Wii is much smaller than expected, and better graphics is an improvement. For reference, these are 360 shots: Take away HD and they're exactly the same - the "Wii" shots smell like scaled 360 shots to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caris Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 There exactly the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flameboy Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 Madden was on the gamespot marathon as fierce_link said and whilst it looked good it didnt look as good as these screens, they have to be fmv or pre-rendered or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strange Cookie Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 If those are Wii-shots, I'll eat my hat. And I'm not fond of that prospect, because I quite like my hat. It's the "Let's put the best-looking shots of the best-looking version on all boxes"-strategy that EA is so eager to use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flameboy Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 I have to say I am getting more and more interested in buying this at launch, I don't have a clue how american football works but with a lack of any other sports titles out that I want (wii sports not counting) this is appealing to me, I did used to have madden on my megadrive and despite not really understanding it, did kinda enjoy it.

flameboy Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 sorry for double post, but this got reviewed by IGN on saturday and they seemed to love it: http://uk.wii.ign.com/articles/746/746697p1.html wondering what UK gamers views are on american football games, I am well into my serious sports title, but the lack of Pro Evo or Fifa is causing me to think about trying a new sport, my bro is into NFL and says its simple and the game should be good,are the rules hard to understand cos I think this is the biggest thing thats putting me off, that I won't understand the rules lol!

Nintendork Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 The 360 blows the Wii away, I've never played Madden so perhaps the control scheme is stagnant. I can't see any reason why anyone would wanna play Madden Wii. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zero Seven Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 people that dont have a 360 maybe!? I think he ment gamers who may have the choice between the 360 version and Wii version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nintendork Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 Oh I can't afford a 360 11 months after launch, I better just give up saving and buy a Nintendo Wii instead. Of course there will be people who get this as a present from budgetting parents.. and that excludes any choice so is exempt. But core 360s are not that much more expensive now. $50 bucks more at the very most. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nintendork Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 I was talking hypothetically when you said "people who can't afford one" A core system is great value for money when you consider Microsoft is upgrading the hard drive to 80gb in the near future (because 20gb is not enough) The kind of people who have to get a core system don't have a HD TV, and don't need wireless controllers.

flameboy Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 i don't think it is good value for money when you see all the bundles you can get with the premium pack at the mo..4 games and remote for £350 at some places. and 20gb is more than enough for some people. anyway lets not argue, this thread is about madden lets not forget.

Nintendork Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 No the thread is about the army of people who buy Madden every year for better graphics. It's what they expect: "As a hard core madden player for years i can tell you that NO ONE is going to be really taking Wii Madden seriously. You won't see any Wii madden tourneys ever. Madden player aren't the type of guys that will be buying Wii's. Sad but true. Think I'm joking? Head over to maddenauthority.com and ask about the Wii and see how bad you get laughed at." Fanboy? Perhaps.. but he has a point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flameboy Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 ah right...now your point is taken more. I'm guessing that EA dont really expect to sell the Wii version to the hardcore Madden fans, but for everyone else picking a wii, its just helping to broaden the consoles range of software, which surely can't be a bad thing? so with this in mind surely it doesn't matter what the hardcore Madden fans think?

Nintendork Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 That's what confuses me. They've actually put effort into this game.. it doesn't look bad. Matt says they have really refined the control scheme. It's akin to asking a Fifa kid to buy a GameCube to play it on.. the GameCube was cheaper.. but Fifa kids wanted a PS2 or an XBOX to play it on. Nintendo still has that perception of being a kids console.. one demographic it won't win over (unless it has done already with people like us) is teenage males. It does indeed give the impression a Wii is an inclusive console.. and it does amaze me that even Madden on the PSP can almost outdo something like New Super Mario Bros. http://uk.gamespot.com/xbox360/action/deadrising/news.html?sid=6156468 The top 3 spots are taken by the PS2, XBOX and 360.

Its a good technique. I'm fascinated to find out what will happen to fifa on the wii, see if they try and make that innovative or just rely on the classic controller. damn i want a football game for the wii.

Maybe because Wiis Madden is better/equivalent than 360's madden.. It's all about the controls.. And Wii version controls are much greater that 360 version.

Guest Stefkov Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 I really like the controls in this version. I read the ign review and its a shame that big hit function doesnt work often, it would be really fun to take out your friend while playing using this move. Still i will get this when my first lot of Wii games are done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
