Not bashing this game, merely making an observation.
Two years ago, I bought Madden '05 for the regular Xbox. At that time the graphics looked incredible on that system, especially when I played on a HD TV.
This past weekend, a friend brought over Madden '07 and we played Friday night. I really wasn't impressed with the graphics (played on a HD projector). The sharpness of the graphics wasn't there in the field detail, the JumboTron looked like my 5 year old drew it, and worst of all, the graphics crash engine sucked. People actually flew through one another (during a tackle scene). Now on the upside, I think the play choice menus are better and some of the game play is better (than '05).
Anyway, it sealed the deal for me not to purchase the game. I really thought that being a next gen title that they should have spent more time putting together the graphics.
