And we'll blame 2K as well since they're having the same problems with their sports games?  We'll blame Epic for not having the Unreal Engine 3 at a level of performance similar to the 360's?  Hey, lets just blame all third parties for the problem rather than where it squarely belongs, with Sony.  It was Sony who chose to go with the Cell dispite the fact that they must have known that a lot of third parties would have to invest extra time and money working on it and that's the reason for all of this.

P.S. I'll ignore the xbot insult since I know tensions are kind of high these days and people sometimes don't want to hear the truth.

Re: Windbanes list

Wii Version is an 82% average till Gamepro comes in. So, yes, slightly worse. Most likely from graphics.

Gamepro's article: "It's worse in every way" with no examples, and props for motion control.

So, seems nice, but elaborate? If you didn't give props for the good motion control, would it be a 1/5? Jesus buddy, put some type into that!

Still disliking reviewers.

Here are the comments from ign

Madden NFL 08 on PS3 is not a great game. It is a shadow of its cousin on 360. Though the feature set is identical, the drop to an unstable 30fps hurts considerably. The visuals and the gameplay suffer. If you are a real Madden nut and think you can fight through the framerate issues, Madden is an overall good game. It just doesn't run very well. If you only own a PS3 and live for Sundays, then there really is no other choice than to give Madden 08 a shot.
7.7/10


It comes down to this; Madden 08 offers more, but sacrifices polish along the way. Overall it’s a better package than 07, as it has more to do, far more depth, vastly superior multiplayer both online and locally, and a new way to play in family mode. For core football fans, however, you’ll find a stronger game of pure football in Madden 08 for 360, as it’s one of the best Maddens in years. The Wii version is still a great game, it just suffers from a few key “last generation” downsides, and that’s something that simply can’t be tolerated. It’s still worth your cash, still a damn solid game of football, but there’s definite room for growth in 09.
8.5/10

360 version got a 8.7


Please keep in mind this is from different reviewers!!
The thing about the PS3 version is it is best at nothing. The Wii version differentiates itself through motion controls and wii exclusive modes while the PS3 version, like IGN says is "just a shadow of its cousin on the 360."

Yes it takes extra time and money to develop games for the PS3. And that is why they raised the prices for PS3 games vs PS2 games. We are paying for the extra time and effort it takes, now if they would actually put in the extra time and effort to make a next gen game.

and sinha I cant really reconcile my 2 statements, I dont know what to think. I tried looking at IGN for the 2 reviews of Xbox and PS3. I seen 2 different scores, a whole point lower for PS3, but when I went to read the article it was the exact same article.

It doesnt matter if its on all the versions or just PS3, either way they sold me a $60 game that plays like they just left out the quality testing phase and rushed it out the door. which is unacceptable. if they cant make a game for the PS3 then dont make a game for the PS3, but instead they choose to just rip off PS3 owners and sell them a broken game.

 the thing is it's harder than XB 360 and we are also paying 60 for that game.... so that's why....

 then again nobody asked you to buy a PS3 or an EA game... I personally never buy EA since the 2nd NFS on PC.... I have some EA games but pre owned.... 

it's not news that EA sucks and it's not news that EA sucks even more on PS3... and it's not news that a lot of third party dev have lower quality games on PS3 than 360 because it cost them more money to do the same or better on PS3 than 360..... I mean we knew that before PS3 was released... all/most  DEVS said it at E3 and TGS 2006.... I mean all that stuff is at least 1 year old... and people are still surprised....

I mean I'll trust a shitty dev from the shittiest dev studio of EA or activision over any marketing statement from anybody from sony....  what amaze me it's in 50 years of Sony's existance they still didn't get it....  

hum that valid actually for MS and Ninty too....or any marketing statement from anyone

Ok so the fact thats it harder to develop a game for the PS3 isnt new news. But that means they have to work harder not just be lazy and put out crap games.  The list at the top of this thread should embarass anyone who worked on this game. 

Even EA has to have some sort of quality standards, they just forgot to add the wind generator for franchise games???????  or it cost to much money to write that piece of code????  or are they just lazy bums???

and yes Endimion a Xbox game cost $60 too, but they are actually getting thier money's worth.  Playstation owners are better off buying the PS2 version cause you dont get your money's worth with the PS3 version.

and no one has commented on if they think they will release a gameplay patch to address any of these issues...

Well I have played around 20 games so far and never had either of those problems (QB just standing there or a player running through the stands). I have had problems with too many interceptions and fumbles, and I have stated those criticisms multiple times just in this thread. How does that make me a fanboy?? Because I haven't experienced those glitches? Because I didn't see some random blurry youtube video?

And every game has glitches. For example in the BioShock demo there is a glitch that allows you to walk outside in the water. OMG the game is crap, youtube video proves all the reviewers giving it 10/10 are fanboys! Or maybe it's that almost no one in the normal course of playing the game has experienced that problem. As far as the two screw-ups in that video, I DON'T know how common they are, but I can state that in around 20 games so far, I have never experienced either one.

the thing PS3 fans need to understand is just because your console is more powerful doesn't mean 3rd parties will optimize it. I know this has been said so many times but you can't expect them to spend so much time on the PS3 version that will probably sell 1/4 - 1/5 as many copies as the 360 version and PS2 versions. They spent the most time on the PS2, 360, and a bit less so on the Wii version because that's what they thought would sell. Gamecube and xbox owners were well aware of how 3rd parties treated them, and right now PS3 is the system selling like gamecube, while the Wii is the system selling like PS2.

if you think about it though, isn't it kind of rediculous how EA tries to make 9 versions of madden? Seriously that is rediculous.
PC/PS2/PS3/PSP/xbox/360/GC/Wii/DS

Pretty much.
