Eh, I don't like this feature at all. I mean, football games are supposed to be like that….missed moments, missed chances, and "what if's". Just like in real life football, I'm sure every player has one of those moments in their mind, but they'll never get that chance to go back and do it over. So why should we start now?

Yea…fully agree with you on this. I guess EA is just trying to show that not every sports game they release is a rehash of last year's game…lol

That's pretty sweet. I guess if you used the unlimited one, you could absolutely SLAUGHTER the other team…

I'm considering buying Madden 09 as this rewind feature looks quite interesting. People may rip EA off but FIFA 08's Be A Pro Mode was really good and the celebration feature in UEFA Euro 2008 is also quite good. Not trying to be a fanboy or anything but I haven't seen many new features in PES recently!

I guess EA had to do something different in Madden since it hasn't changed much of anything in the last few years. Neat idea, only the unlimited part seems pretty stupid since your opponent would just constantly erase every good play or even any play you make, which in turn would defeat the purpose of even making it a football game at all.

I like this
Now I have to decide between Madden 09 and Too Human

Eh, I'd go with Too Human…that's just my opinion though. I mean, this country has technology that has sent people to the moon and you mean to tell me that they can't think of anything better than to put a rewind feature in a football game…? Please…

I think EA is trying to cater to the casual gamers this time around and this is just their sad attempt of doing so

After a while, there's only so much you can do with a football game without it becoming completely obsurd. But, then again, if they don't do something new with each game they'll be criticized for that, and if they do something new…they'll get criticized for that as well. But I think there's a difference between putting something in a game because it's cool rather than putting something in a game just because they need something new. This rewind feature seems to be something they put in there just because.
