No Problems Here

Written by TW from Salem

Sep 21, 2008

I read a lot of reviews about the problems running this game, but my Macbook Pro (17" 2.33 GHz Intel Duo) hasnt had any problems with menus or game play, although I haven't been able to get registered with EA, which I think is a problem with my internet, not the game. I cant speak to Leopard problems however, as I am running Tiger, 10.4.11 to be exact.

Outstanding game...

Written by JR from Princeton

Installed this game on my new aluminum iMac (24 in. 2.4 ghz)with leopard and it is fantastic. The graphics were a bit screwy and the menus inoperable before downloading the EA patch, but after installing the patch I am most impressed. The game was great, and it wasnt until yesterday that I realized I had it set to the lowest resolution. When I switched the settings, I was blown away. Not sure why people are experiencing problems with newer Mac models, but I would reccomend to anyone with an Intel Mac.

it really works well with Leopard

The first time I played it with Tiger, it worked poorly but was completely fixed with the patch from EA games website (see previous reviews for address). After loading Leopard it still works great. No regrets buying this game for Mac.

A Great Game and a Great Gift.

I just got the game for Christmas. I installed it on my IMac along with the patch found on the Apple website and it works great. The graphics are beautiful and the game-play is smooth. I also got the MadCatz gamepad which works well with the game. Any previous problems have apparently been fixed by the patch. Thanks EA.

Sweet!

I don't know what people mean when they say it doesn't work with Leopard, I am playing it on Leopard and have for about a week. The graphics are way better than the PS2 version (which is why I got for my Macbook Pro). It may be working because I installed the update that I found on this site before playing. Great game!

Excellent experience

Written by JF from Watertown

Nov 30, 2007

Purchased Madden 2008 when Apple had its Cyber Monday specials on Nov. 26 and received it Nov. 29. Contrary to what I read here, the game has performed very well on my 17-inch 2.4 GHz MacBook Pro. Graphics and text are sharp, better than my Madden 2006 that I have for a PC. Luck was with me because within a day or two or purchasing the game EA Sports came out with a patch. Perhaps the upgrade headed off the problems that others had encountered. But I've very happy.

Great Game for the Mac

Written by SP from Raleigh

Oct 24, 2007

All in all, this is a great game for the Mac platform. I've only been playing for a few days, but I haven't run into any showstoppers yet on my SR MacBook Pro. The graphics are excellent and frame rates are good. It may not have all the features of the console versions, but it's better than all the other football sims out there for the Mac right now ;-) And it's saved me from buying a 360!

@Black Helmets: I fixed this by turning helmet mappings off under Menu -> Settings -> System Settings -> Video tab -> Helmet Mappings. No more black helmets.
