Quick madden 08 wii impression

[Baylan]

I've got to reiterate the sentiments of both of these posters. Madden '08 Wii
feels like it could be so much better, but there are times when it just doesn't deliver.

I *love* most of the controls, but the catch control is awful. Additionally, I think
I've juked *once* in the 9 or 10 games I've played since having the game. Its
just not as good as it could be.

The other thing that really bothers me is that I loved the old playcalling system.
I don't like the "Pick your individual play" system - I would much rather do it the
old fashioned way, and be able to do individual on the fly substitutions (a la the circle button on the old PS2 version, so I can use Reggie Bush as a WR, or substitute him in for Deuce McAlister if I wanted him in for a specific play, but not for another).

One last little bug that drives me nuts: the blur bug when coming out of the "big-play close-up." I don't know if anyone else has experienced this... but its atrocious. It hurts to watch the game when this bug is in effect.

All in all... a 7.5 is about right. It lacks features that I want and isn't quite as useable as older versions. Why update? I could do my own roster update, in that case.
