4.0 out of 5 stars
Touchdown!!!, December 26, 2005
Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars
I always am surprised about how sports franchises can always be up or down. That has been the case with the football games the NFL has licensed for years. Yet, they have been very successful with the Madden franchise for years, and what has been a constant developement into one of the greatest football franchises around. Sadly, this year, it is reallt the only football game that the NFL can fully use as a franchise. Still, that hasn't stopped it from continuing to shine on handheld and consoles too. It previously made its debut for the Nintendo DS last year, and now it has returned with a whole new blitz.
Madden '06 for the Nintendo DS system is a much better game on the handhelds than before. Considering that this is only the second title for the Madden series for the DS, there is so much more improvement this time around. The graphics and sound effects have been displayed nicely, and really shine in gameplay with each of the NFL greats from the New York Jets, to the Miami Dolphins, and even the San Francisco 49'ers. The gameplay is much more percise and the control is a lot easier to pick up than before. Although visually it is a far cry than the version for the PSP, it does still carry through with the gameplay, but for DS owners, I doubt it honestly makes any difference.
Yet, it is sad that Madden '06 is the actual only football franchise game out there for the Nintendo DS, it definitely does carry out well. This is a must buy for any armchair quarterback who loves video football, and the feeling of a great touchdown. Otherwise, you're just striding nothing but incomplete passes.
Graphics: B
Sound: B 1/2-
Control: B 1/2+
Fun & Enjoyent: B 1/2+
Overall: B

BETTER THAN THE BOX SAYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, August 9, 2005
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars
This game is awsome!!! I got this game the day it came out and after 5 minutes with it I love it!! Thereis franchise mode, something we all need. You can also create/edit players!! There is create a team (The method from madden 2003 for PS2). You also can create a play. There isn't vision cones or superstar mode, but the game is great!! The graphics are a lot better. A tackle looks like a tackle, instead of color colliding like in madden 2005. the players actually look like they are moving, in 2005 everything looked cruddy. these graphics are a little better than madden 2001 for ps one. This game is worth every penny!!!

A Kid's Review
Durability:5.0 out of 5 stars Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars Educational:4.0 out of 5 stars
I think this is One of the Best Maddens yet! You can Build Your Own team changing the unifrom and their TEAM NAME! THe Graphics are much better then the Gameboy Advance and the SP! The Touch Screen IS what Makes this Game so Awesome! With the PS2 ANd the X Box The Kicking Is Much Harder to do. The Music and the anoucers dont repeat the same thing over and over like the GaMEBOY advance and PS2! Multiy Player Is soo Cool. You can do all these drills and activites with other people! The Madden Cards are way cooler, you can pump up the stands and some times you can get cheats. The ONLY bad part about this game is that
if You are whooping the other team the Cpu will start to make up stuff like holding, Face Mask. Overall a Great Game!
