Madden


I recently finished playing a series of Madden 2008 and have to say each and every game is just as much fun as the last. If you haven't experienced it for yourself, please do or you'll find yourself missing out. I presently am holding it down and have been sticking it to my roommate Ryan and good friend Dominique. The truth is, they do not want to see me. Anyhow, playing it has some pretty realistic aspects while still having a virtual reality concept with imaginary abilities. You don't even have to be a football fan to love Madden. I mean, my roommate is a soccer guy and he's down with some Madden all day. I suggest if you don't already own a copy of Madden 08, do yourself and the rest of your friends a favor by going out and buying it. You will not regret it. It's extremely competative and does take time to get used to, but once you got it oh is it neverending fun.

Here's some players who I enjoy dominating the field with:

Ladainian Tomlinson (RB, San Diego Chargers) - simply the rawest player in the game, breaks tackles, shifty, speed, catches the ball, does it all just like in real life

Peyton Manning (QB, Indianapolis Colts) - if you want to throw the ball hes your man, a vision (if you use the tunnel to read the D) the size of the field, as accurate and timely a passer as you can get, doesn't move well but gets plenty of time from get O-line

Steven Jackson (RB, St. Louis Rams) - a beast of a runner, breaks tackles for fun, can catch the ball out of the backfield, simply fun to have to run people over


Larry Johnson (RB, Kansas City Chiefs) - a great runner, breaks a lot of tackles, does it all just not as overall skilled as LT


Chad Johnson (WR, Cincinnati Bengals) - Ocho Cinquo knows how to outrun and out snatch any defender on the field, combines uncanny speed and hands


Brian Urlacher (MLB, Chicago Bears) - as fast as a receiver practically and takes peoples heads off, good hands to pick balls off, is everywhere making the play


Troy Polamalu (SS, Pittsburgh Steelers) - fast hard hitter that commands the whole field on D, fun to play center field and diagnose the play with


Antonio Gates (TE, San Diego Chargers) - everybody who plays Madden will tell you your pass game just won't fly without a good tight end, he's simply the best tight end, fast as wide out, strong, great hands, uncoverable


Julius Peppers (DE, Carolina Panthers) - fast defensive end who brings the heat on everyplay, disrupts a lot of plays by getting in the backfield


Vince Young (QB, Tennessee Titans) - Madden 08 cover boy for a reason, fast and shifty QB, throws the ball moderately well for an amazingly fast QB, impossible to stop if he gets to the corner

Devin Hester (WR/KR, Chicago Bears) - one word describes him, electrifying, 100 speed in the game! thats unheard of! Fast and scary to kick the ball to, run him deep as a wide out and see if anyone can keep up with him


Vince Vaughn puts Madden into perspective so well!
