"Madden NFL 2008" Description:

Electronic Arts' "Madden NFL" series has long been the go-to football game for all systems. Each yearly version comes with new roster updates and a few more features. In recent years, new additions have included a team ownership and star mode, where you control either the entire team or a player. Even with the management options, the biggest attraction to "Madden NFL" continues to be the action on the field.

"Madden NFL 2008" Quick Review:

I don't recommend buying Madden every year. To get the best value for your money, you're better off buying every other year. "Madden NFL 2008" comes with a few token features found also in console versions and some improvement in the graphics and AI. If you must get a new version of "Madden," you're better off buying one for the Wii, Xbox 360, or Playstation 3. There is a greater improvement over each yearly version.
