i wonder if they changed the graphics engine on the pc to match the xbox360 or will it just look like the ps2 graphics. i have a nice computer that can handle better graphics than what madden 06 offered. (love them 7800gts in sli!) if they did change the graphics engine then i probably will pick it up for the pc. i remember they did change the engine for madden '02 after ps2 originally came out. they changed the engine for the ps2 version of '01 but by then the pc version was already out.
I always by consoles at Wal-Mart. If anything goes wrong, just take it back. As long as you have the receipt, they will take anything.
Best Buy has a deal going on where if you buy an Xbox 360 and Madden, you get $300 off any Samsung TV. Tomorrow is my son's birthday and I had intended on getting him a 23" Samsung LCD but if I go with this deal, I can get the 26" for basically the same price and I have a perfectly legitimate excuse for finally getting a 360! Woo hoo!
I had a 360 version on pre-order until I learned that you can't edit players at all. Not their ratings, not their gear, nothing. That's ridiculous imo.
do you think EB will have it by late afternoon? People are going to Fry's at midnight? are they open at midnight? might be a dumb question
What's going to be open at Midnight? If you guys find anything, let me know. I was planning on hitting up EB or Best Buy if they were open late.
Anyone know what the deal is at EB Games with trading in old used games? I heard something on the radio about it.
Not sure of anything special, other than that you can take in old games and get store credit for them. They have in the past had specials like trade in an old version of the game and use the credit towards the new version, and they'll give a you 10% more (or somethign similar) for the trade in. I think they had one of these for a DS light. trade in a GC and a Mario game and get like $75 off a DS and New Super Mario Bros. I have no idea if they have one of these specials for Madden but you can call one of their stores and find out. I trade in old games all the time and many times get new ones for little or nothing.
That's not a feature, that's a lack of a feature. Why edit? Because madden often whiffs on their ratings, sometimes whiffs on their appearance, and it can be useful to change a players position. I don't think it's a big enough deal to not buy the game, but I can definitely understand passing on the 360 version for a more polished game.
you'd most likely be better off ebaying those games. EB/gamestop and their ilk usually give crap prices for trade ins.
gamestop/eb games often open at midnight for every big games with alot of reserves - ie: madden and halo
by download it i think he meant its on xbox live marketplace...the demo. not sure i havnt checked it out yet though
I have Madden 07 for the PSP. It's amazing. The gameplay, graphics are on par with the ps2 version. And with the PSP's LCD screen, it makes it look even better. Being able to bring Madden with you everywhere you go is a great option. Now I can keep my self busy at work.
