Summaries and Scores It's that time of the year again, with EA Sports pumping out the yearly updates to their sports franchises. Madden NFL 08 has already received some nasty remarks about bugs, some praise for its stunning new visuals and been at the center of controversy revolving around the fact that the PS3 version runs only at 30fps while Xbox 360 manages 60fps. But wait - all those things apply only to the new shiny console editions. What about the PC version? Well, the good news is that it sure runs at 60fps, and there are no bugs with players running off the field. The bad news is that the game actually has little to do with the much-publicized next-gen console versions. Instead, the PC incarnation of Madden NFL 08 has its roots firmly planted on the PS2. And just like the PS2 version, PC version has received roughly zero engine programming effort since the 2006 edition, and back then the upgrades from 2005 were extremely minor. The gameplay side has received more tweaks and changes, but majority of them are things that could have been implemented as patches - except that free patches don't bring in the cash. Pushing out another full-price box to the stores does the trick, and EA Sports has turned the concept of milking with the same game every year into a form of art. As EA is the exclusive NFL licensee, the lack of competition is showing.
