After playing the PS3 version for about 2 months and the PS2 version about 5 days....

That seems like too much risk to me. I will probably never use it in game. It may work well on the lower levels, but I think on All-Madden you will probably get torched more times than not.

Simple question for CountryBoy if you don't mind. This seems trivial but it actually is somewhat important to me....

Do the Browns wear all-white uniforms in the game or are they stuck with the brown pants for their away uniforms? Madden 08 360 had this glitch, and HC09 does too....so I am wondering if they fixed on the ps2 version of 09.

Thanks.

I get bored with coach mode. Sorry man, I can't offer a fair opinion on the topic.

THANK YOU!!!

you made me think to try this, and i never would have tried ps2 madden 09... i dont wanna get flamed either, but having 10x more fun on ps2 version. in my most humble opinion, the only thing that madden 09 ps3/360 has over ps2 version is graphics. im glad you made this thread, thanks again.

not a problem man, glad you are enjoying Madden this year. And yes, its nice some of the uni's that are on the PS2 that aren't available on current gen.

And I agree, I to am having a ton of more fun in the week or so that I've had the PS2 version than I ever did in the month or so that I played the PS3 version. Damn fine game. Like you said the graphics and animations are the only thing I miss from the PS3 version. Everything else, I'll take the PS2 version of all day, any day of the week.

They do have the all white uniforms for the Browns. Its alternate #4. Also, the Broncos' orange jerseys are in the game as well. I don't believe they are available in current gen.

Wonder what'll happen if PS2 sales surpass PS3 sales.......

Country

The new model 80gig systems - like the ones that came with Metal Gear and the ones coming this fall DO NOT support BC play. Only the 20gig, 60gig, and the original 80gig support it.

I wish Sony would finally update the firmware for all the systems.
