Ok so here is the deal, this game is the third in a series of madden wii games that are almost exactly the same. Now I do understand that Madden changes very little from year to year but playing the wii version makes the game feel even more stale. The visuals are of course very uninspiring, but I can see what EA is doing with trying to go for a different style to compensate for the wii's shortfalls in the graphics department. Sure the controls are fun when you are playing for the first time, they can make you feel immersed in the game, but they really aren't all that realistic and sometimes really hinder the game. Especially when you try to throw to one receiver and the QB ends up throwing to another guy and it gets intercepted.
The game does have great modes like franchise, Superstar, and the surprisingly fun 5 on 5 mode. The game also has online play, but the games are usually so slow that none of your motions match what the players do leading to a very frustrating experience. There is also an error in the game in practice mode, if you are on defense and intercept a pass the game goes to the celebration mode (which also gets to be really boring) and then freezes. This error is especially bad in superstar mode when you have a defensive player and you just want to practice with your team, The game freezes and you lose whatever you didn't save. Don't get me wrong I still play this game all the time, but it has quite a number of problems, if you have a wii and you like football you're almost forced to get it
