My review is on...The popular Madden 06 for the Xbox 360.

Graphics

The graphics are stunning and way better than I expected. Every inch of sweat, every wrinkle on the jersey, every facial expression under the helmet, every main menu, every stadium, every fan, every endzone, the game is stunning in all ways.

Sound

Sound is more realistic than your grandma being in the bed with your best friend. The time when you tackle, all the hard hits and all of the player noises are excellent. When the QB says "HIKE!", it is like never before. Crowd is pumped up for the game too. Music is great in the game, and the quality of your music you send through Xbox Live is excellent.

Control

Control is a little hard to understand because of the new controller, but now that there are new controls, come new lessons. The lessons show you everything about controls and extremely overwhelming how they teach it. (Don't get me wrong tongue.gif) Hit stick is still great and so is the Truck stick.

Gameplay

Even though this is a new Madden year, I still get bored with what they have. But the thing I like is the actual Vision and Precision. Nice idea from EA Sports for this. I bet next year would be the kickers year tongue.gif.

Overall

Overall...It is a great game. Great logo designs, great interactive things to do, great menus by the way smile.gif. Graphics are the most stunning about the game.

Buy, Rent, or Pass?

Buy it, biznatch.

Summary

Graphics - 10/10
Sound - 9/10
Control - 7/10
Gameplay - 8/10
Fun Factor - 9/10

Overall - 9.5/10

That's a... very interesting way to describe sound, heh. Anyway, hows the AI? Is it the same as 05?

AI is tougher than the 2005 version just because of the new OL brain technology. So it makes it harder to play defense than in 05.

Next review...NHL 2006 vs. NHL 2K6.

Graphics

The ice visuals are more of a slush type of ice in NHL 2006. EA focuses more on the graphics than 2K sports did in my opinion. Although there were some glitches in the graphics, they are still ok. Menus were fine, and the audience needs some tweaks still.

NHL 2K6 needs more tweaks on everything...The ice is too clear and yo ucan see everything under it...Enough said.

Sound

The sound of getting checked in 2006 is way better than NHL 2K6. The audience shouting also affects how you play...Even though you aren't in the game itself. But still...Music is amazing and has licensed music.

NHL 2K6 needs more of a better soundtrack than what they have because I have no idea whta their music is...Checking sounds like farts (according to my "girl" friend).

Control

I gotta give this to NHL 2K6. The turbo and the movement is more sleek than EA's control. EA has more control features, but 2K6 has more of a quality control.

Gameplay

Wtf...They both sucked, honestly...I need to give this to EA because of the season mode being more clear and polished than 2K sports...

Summary

EA

Graphics - 8
Sound - 7
Control - 6
Gameplay - 7
Overall - 7.5

2K

Graphics - 6
Sound - 5
Control - 8
Gameplay - 6
Overall - 6.5

EA Sports wins this battle.
