Madden NFL 08 Patch to hit today! - Image 1 


Heads up, Madden fans! The Electronic Arts forums has word of a patch that's arriving for the PS3 version of Madden NFL 08. The release date for this patch? Today, folks. Today.

According to ea_violet, the post will be updated with patch notes and other delightful information once the update goes live, but since there's got to be a delay between the update and the actual post update, here's a quick list of what the update will be taking care of, courtesy of PSXextreme:
  • Fumble Fix - This simply means we won't be fumbling as much in certain game situations. It's good news, considering how often we fumbled before this...it was just plain silly, sometimes.
  • DB Reactions- Specifically, this should alter how the defensive backs play man-to-man coverage. Defenders won't be able to react to passes they can't see, for example, which is a damn good upgrade.
  • QB “Moonwalk” - You may have noticed quarterbacks (like Brett Favre) "moonwalking" towards the sidelines during gameplay, but that out-of-place - yet still stylish - move will now be gone.
  • Hook Zone Flip Bug - Before, you'd flip plays with hook zones and the player would "fall out" of their zones. Turns out, this was an easy fix and it won't happen anymore.
  • Online Game Reporting - There were a few problems, including players not getting the correct number of ranking points for a win, inaccurate stats, etc. But thankfully, they've repaired this little issue, too.
  • Franchise Fix - Fixed NCAA import issue where players would turn 26.
  • Franchise Fix - Fixed bug where HOF Unlocked players cannot be released in Franchise mode.
  • Franchise Fix - Fixed bug where the Free Agent pool would run out of certain positions.
If you can't wait for the announcement to be official, feel free to check out your PS3 for updates. In the meantime, we'll keep tabs on the forum post below so that we can update the site with the official patch list.
