    Madden 08 the year to skip?

    Is it just me or am I feeling that Madden 08 would be a good year to save the $50 and buy something else? For me it just seems like it won't be worth it this year. I've got 19 credits and GTA 4 coming out. Also I just haven't been impressed by what I've read about it. Seems like they are just repackaging the same things over and over. It's like $50 for a new patch for a game.

    I feel the exact opposite. I have a feeling '08 on the 360 will be far superior to 07. I can't wait.

    I was still talking CG (ps2) given that I don't have a 360 and I have a PS3

    Lol I'm actually supposed to have a fight in August. We might be doing two shows so it'd be either the 11th or 25th. I'll make sure to keep folks updated.

    I agree. FINALLY after 2 years (for 360 owners) of AWFUL games this year looks complete, finally!

    That's alot of hours. You're going to be very busy. I'm willing to bet cg got the short end of the stick this year, as far as new features and improvements. That being said, GTA gets very old, very quick for me. Except for the one where he's in the 80's. I love that one and I still play it on the pc.

    I cannot wait for this game .. I played 07 so little last year namely due to wanting to unrealistically-gut the Falcons roster every Franchise started .. I was hating our WR corps and Secondary so much

    but I like what the team has done in real life

    I'll take 06 with updated rosters and tweeked AI for $50 at this point, along with NCAA imported draft classes for another $50

BESIDES, TOO MANY MORE RINGS AND HE WON'T HAVE ENOUGH FINGERS.

    Does this mean you're going to open a fitness center for unorganized german business attorneys using subliminal messaging?

    Now that you mention it... no actually it doesn't. The German fulfill Gen Ed req, the marketing class covers major (sport management and minor business management), the media message design covers a certificate, and the other two cover my minor.
