What is wrong with everyone?
Written by JS from Hamden

All I can assume out there is that some of you know nothing about computers. They are not consoles, and certain games you cannot …Read morejust buy and play. If that is what you want, buy a PS3 or a 360. For games, such as Madden 08, you have to do some research. It could be better labeled on the box, but it's there, the game will not work with an integrated graphics card. It is also stated on the Apple store, so it will not run on a Mac Book. Is that fair? No, but these sorts of games require a real graphics card so that is really just a fact of computer gaming. Second, you have to tweak the settings to best suit your machine. I have a MBP, 2.16-X1600-2GB RAM, and playing with the settings, the game runs fine, and looks great. Thank you EA for widescreen support. It looks fantastic. As for controllers, I am using a Logitech controller, again no issues with it. Many Logitech controllers have EA compatibility on the PC end, so they work fine on our end for the Mac.
As for the game itself, its Madden, love it or hate it. Again, widescreen support gain huge kudos from me, and reliable gameplay on my game pad. I have no issue with the menus. They are just lo-res and slightly blurry is all.
And listen to this one piece of advice: take 5 minutes to do your home work, know your machine, know the requirements, save yourself a headache.(603 of 936 people found this review useful)
