That whole community over there does a great job with the PC stuff.Īs for the graphics. Well since I've followed his rules, I've actually experienced losing seasons.

The problem I've always had was finding a good balance of fair, realistic, and challenging.

It makes the franchise experience amazingly better. He also drew up a season by season walkthrough for using his progs along with a few house rules he uses. There's a fella over at that makes crafty little programs and editors for the PC version. He had over 1,000+ receiving yards in his first three seasons in the league! He was a straight baller. I realized how good he was in pre-season despite his low ratings so I ended up putting him in as a slot receiver then eventually a starter on the outside. I didn't know this until after I signed him, I was just merely filling my roster at this point. In the PC version, I once drafted a gem in the later rounds, he was low-rated but his speed was 98 and his accelerated was 99. There's none of this nonsense like Madden 09 where speed ratings seem to be a complete non-factor. And in the PC version, fast receivers will actually burn slow corners. As we know, the Madden 09 DB's are superhuman and defy basic physics. You can also complete more streak patterns, go routes, stop and go's, etc. When's the last time you saw someone like Favre throw an absolute rocket but a linebacker with no catching ability leaped 7 feet in the air and picked it off with his fingertips? Didn't think so. In Madden 09, it seems like most of the time you have to have a completely open window or you face the risk of throwing a pick.

It feels good to complete a passing route that went over defenders heads. Defenders don't jump unrealistically high in the air to bat it away or intercept it. Well for starters, the passing game is way better in the PC version of 08.
