This will be my first video game review. For every highly-anticipated sports video game, i will write a review.

 Madden 09 will be a completely different game then any other game. Madden will barely be in the game which is why I would have it go to NFL 09 instead of Madden 09.

 TOP 10 FEATURES

10-EA Sports Rewind. This will certainly be a cool new feature, but it doesn;t seem like much of a challenge when you can have a do over on every play.
9-New Announcers. I know Michaels and Madden will be missed, but i am certainly looking forward to Collinsworth and Hammond to step it up.
8-Intro. The intro to the game will be 10 times better than the shot around the field. The exterior design and fireworks are just great instead of the boring stretches.
7-Grass models. Not every little patch of grass will be perfect. More realistic than the one color grass. Looks 50 times better.
6-Snow models. It will be extremly fun to play in and again, more realistic that any other game.
5-Touchdown celebrations. Love the new idea of the hot spots in the end zone and the life-like celebrations of the players, like the LT flip of the ball, or that weird thing Randy Moss does. Awesome.
4-EA Backtrack. Love the new idea of anylizing the play to perfection. In Backtrack, its almost like they don't miss a single detail in breaking down the play.
3-New running models. Love the juke and spin moves and interruptible stick moves.
2-New cameras. Now, if my reciever runs a down and out, i can actually see where he is.
1.Madden IQ Test. Now in the game, there is no such thing as too easy or too hard. Couldn't have done a better job with the system.

 OVERALL SCORE OUT OF 10:
8.5

You're gonna want to get this game.
