Madden NFL 11 (Wii) Review

[RaychelSnr]

Last year, Madden on the Wii consisted of new stylized graphics, a few new multiplayer-focused modes and the removal (or "lock-up") of traditional modes. While some of these items seemed like a good idea, the whole package was lacking. Too much of what made Madden Madden was missing.

This year, all of Madden 10’s feature list is back, but enough has been restored to make Madden 11 a worthwhile purchase. In fact, this is one of the most robust sports gaming packages on the Wii.

After speaking to a few guys here and reading this review, this might eventually get purchased when it is dropped in price.

I've got this and the PS3 version... I probably play this about 25% of the time. It's a very fun game, and the franchise mode is definitely cool to mess around with. I don't regret picking it up at all.

I played this at my cousins house and I rather liked it. It's all cartoony, but cool I thought. No fantasy draft available for franchise, which I think is lame.

Oh, and you can't make a gameplan to go along with gameflow... which seems really odd to me.

Re: Madden NFL 11 (Wii) Review

The only sports games I like on the Wii is golf, tennis and bowling. Anything else just don't feel right.

I rented it for the Wii and liked the game play minus one thing...the stupid wand controller. If I could play this game with Wii classic controller I would have actually bought it. I just can't get used to flicking the controller around to perform different moves...it's very awkward. It's sad because I really like the feel and the look of the game, much better than the PS3 version. But the controls are just too clumbsy.

Disappointing that it doesn't have a classic controller set-up. However It's a blast at parties especially ones containing alcohol which in no way do I endorse.

Nice Review. I prefer the Ps3 or Xbox360 versions. Id rather use a controller rather than use the wii motion controls after getting Madden 07 as gift and experience kicking FGs or Xps and always missing em wide left or wide right I prefer using a controller and pressing buttons or an analog stick to this.

I don't understand why the classic controller isn't an option? I just can't play a football game flicking around that wand like some kind of fairy. The franchise portion of the game sounds interesting though.
