thats higher then i thought,and atleast this turned out good

Hmmm...I might just have to buy two Maddens this year. Good job EA.

seems like an OK score...

Damn, I was just about to post this myself.
I'm glad this improves on Madden 08 in so many ways. And surely, when this is compared saleswise to Madden 08, this will sell 1 million.
EA actually put effort into it, and there are no friend codes.

Who knows, Madden 2010 could have WiiSpeak integration........

I have been surprised by the favorable reviews of this game. I haven't played a football game since NFL2k (on the DC). Maybe it's time I actually give Madden a try.

Why doesn't the Wii get the same Madden as everyone else?

and why are there two different versions of the game? all thats different is the controls.... or am I wrong

 no clue. I'm thinking the Wii version is watered down and made more casual though.

OK? 8.6 is pretty damn high score. If this is ok what great for  you?

On topic - I expected a 9 or something but thought about it and cant think back to any of them getting a 9 >.>

8.6 is great score I'll pick it up as soon as I can.

Like Nintendo's own games, The Wii version of Madden 09 is made for EVERYONE. It has a more relaxed, easier to approach side for the new gamers and tons of the old Madden goodness for people that want that. If this is watered down and casual then so are Nintendo's own games.
