Is Madden 09 All Play for the Wii too fun and childish and is it for hardcore gamers?
I just saw a preview of Madden 09 all play and I think it's childish and too family fun what do you think?
the 5 on 5 mode is childish and family oriented
In Madden 2007 for the Wii it had every game mode and features as the Gamecube, PS2 , PS3 and 360 version and they got rid of the modes and features in Madden 08 for the Wii and replaced with party mode and mini games
I think EA should have given the Wii version of Madden 09 the same game modes and features and kept the motion controls but they gave call your shots which i think it's good and the one think that i don't like is 5 on 5 mode which is childish to an 18 year old like my self
Is Madden 09 All Play for Hardcore gamers?
Will Madden 09 All Play get a better rating than the versions on X-Play this week or will it get a lower rating?
Of course its to childish because you cant do good conversions or audibles and im not trying to sound like a fanboy but every game on the wii is easy and if its multi-platform then they change everything around on it and dumb it down
