1Up: Madden 2009 Must-Haves

Nine Things That'll Make 09 the Ultimate Madden.

While NFL-crazed message boarders bash Madden for every meager misstep -- and, agreed, the game's not perfect -- we're here to dole out some constructive criticism. The storied franchise took huge strides from Madden 07 to 08, but for 09 to be a classic (or even just sports game of the year), it needs a heaping handful of not-so-obvious fixes before it hits shelves in August. We give you our top nine....

1 - interesting but i'm assuming
EA ain't listening. They'll probably make it the same like last year iteration, with the exception of online leagues.
I must admit though, i hate playing people who goes back 15+ yards and throw a perfect pass to thier receiver. That graying out (or eliminating) the icons if you go back a certain amound is a nice idea i must admit.

I can't see myself spending money on this and on any other EA game for the matter, I was going to buy DeadSpace in October but EA isn't getting my money I'll buy Project Origin instead. Plus lets face it they haven't made a great Madden in a very long time and that is why I haven't bought one since Dreamcast.

I really wish they would create an online dynasty mode that would allow a handful of friends to play with the AI controlling the remaining non-human teams. The online leagues are a good idea but my online play is generally limited against people I know.

4 - This will probably be...
the last Madden game that I buy, and only because it is the 20th anniversary. I don't particular care for EA, and I'm not pre-ordering this. I'm tired of getting duped by sub-par Madden games. We deserve a return to quality Madden titles by now, EA. After all, we all started playing these games for a reason:P
