Okay I just bought ps3 and would like to play madden 08 on it. However, i dont know if i am doing something wrong but the game seems extremely slow. Any tips on improving the speed? What if I store the game inside the system, will that help?
From what I remember and have read, the EA sports game all run at 30 fps on the PS3 and 60 fps on the 360. So I think that is the problem, it just runs slow on the PS3.
Indeed, Madden just runs a lot better on the 360. I assume they'll do a much better job with optimization next year.
thats what i mainly got it for too. I would like to play games on it though since i don't have another gaming console.
No, Madden 07 is worse. Really though, it'll be better next year. Plus, the EA Sports games seem to be mostly unique in their craptacular-ness on the PS3... of the EA sports games I have, Madden 08 and Fight Night Round 3 don't run so hot, while Fifa 08 runs fine. All the other 9 games I have run very well.
EA games weren't made in 1080p resolution so if your PS3 is set to 1080p change it. That might be one of the reasons.
And you know, if you want some PS3 game recommendations in general... Uncharted: Drake's Fortune It's like a more-fun version of Tomb Raider had sex with Gears of War. Plus the exceptional voice acting gives the cutscenes more personality than most Hollywood productions. Ratchet & Clank: Tools of Destruction If you haven't taken time out to blow stuff up with ridiculously huge, overpowered guns lately... you need to. Burnout Paradise Open-world Burnout! What could be better? I must say, the Showtime mode has the remarkable ability to instantly enthrall anyone (seriously, even my non-gamer friends get mesmerized when I go into this mode), but it's the unparalleled speed that'll keep you coming back. Rainbow Six: Vegas One of the very best first-person co-op shooters available on a console, and you can get it cheap because #2 is about to come out. NBA 2K8 Best. Sports. Game. Ever.
