I was just about to post this! This is really good news. I had my mind set on the 360 version but now it's deffinately going to be a tough choice.

It also means that EA and other third party games will most likely be given online play. I can't wait!

Alllright this is great news, im glad its online It will be my first online Madden as well CANT WAIT!!!!

Are you SERIOUS!? THIS is GREAT. I am not a huge Madden fan, but the reason I am happy is because I hope this means that most 08 sports games will be online. If they are all online I will get:

Tiger Woods 08
Madden 08
MLB...? 08
SDvR 08

And maybe even more. So do you guys think that this means most third party sports games will be online? I am really hoping Smackdown vs Raw is online, that would be awsome (if youve seen the video you know what I am talking about). I probably wont buy any sports games unless they are online, Im a huge conservatist.

Awsome, hopefully the mass platform online games (such as Madden) won't be limited with the online play. They should have it all together by now.


Ya, probobly just avatar Miis. Kind of like XBL with the accounts that store user-specific date. Same thing here.
A cheat-code to use Miis would be cool though, even if the heads were just paisted on the bodys will a few animations.

i can be the Giants online!! except i wont have tiki barber..... what do u mean? miis on the head? for what????....
