How is Madden 07 for the wii? are the controls good or is it real awkward with the control scheme?
 
The thorough reviews I've read say it works great for offense, but the wiimote is crappy for playing D.
 
The mini-games are what really sell this game. The 2v2 is a lot of fun especially when you have someone else to play with. Definitely check it out.
 
Check out the video review at Gametrailers.com

I think it sums up the game pretty well.
 
Was just playing it this afternoon, loads of fun. I've played tons of Madden before on other consoles, and the abilities of the Wii really pull you into the game.

My only problem is when you hit-stick on D, you thrust both controllers fowards. But since your running at the offense, you have to hold towards yourself on the analog stick. Get's my mind confused and i start running the wrong way, but maybe thats just me.

When I first got the game, that really threw me through a loop. You get use to it though.

Actually the thorough reviews say that offense was designed well but defense *wasn't*. I have yet to see a review that blames the Wiimote on this, and I think it'd be silly to do so. If the defense sucks, it's because they didn't spend enough effort developing it. Of course, this being a launch title and the first football game to grace the Wii and try using these controls, I'd be surprised if it were perfectly well rounded. It'll be interesting to see how Madden 2008 turns out, though :)
 
I can't really think of much significant tuning they'll do to the Wiimote system for Madden 08. Defense is kinda hard, but I see it more as a challenge where you should just get good at it. It's in no way impossible. Throwing your arms up to pick off a ball in the air on D, is pretty damn cool
 
I love football and football games but haven't owned one since NFL blitz... this is definitely a good one.

There is a bit of a learning curve though but once you get used to it it's better...
