EA has issued a statement in response to the USA Today Madden 08 article, explaining why the Playstation 3 version is comparatively slower to the Xbox 360 version. USA Today had this to say about the game,
“On the surface, the releases on 360 and PlayStation 3 look identical. However, when you stack them head-to-head, it’s clear which is better. Madden on 360 is fast and fluid, thanks to a sharp jump in frame rate that allows the game to move twice as fast.
PS3 owners, unfortunately, are greeted with a Madden that is sluggish in comparison. Action stutters far too often, particularly on injuries, penalties and turnovers. There’s also a half-second delay between pressing the hike button and receiving the ball in your hands. Even close-ups between play look dull when lined up against the 360’s sleeker cut scenes.”

Electronic Arts has announced a new cover star, Josmer (Jozy) Altidore, for their FIFA ‘08 title. Altidore will be the second youngest athlete, and one of only five teenagers to be featured on an EA SPORTS cover art. He currently plays for the New York Red Bulls of Major League Soccer.
Altidore started in the MLS when he was only 16 years old in the 2006 season, scoring his first goal, and becoming a fan favorite. Now 17, he is very excited about his new opportunity to shine. He states, “It’s exciting to be on the cover of my favorite videogame and I am really looking forward to playing as myself in FIFA Soccer 08.
