The NFL is all about speed and this game just feels as though you're playing in a vat of molasses. Sure, you can learn to account for the lack of responsiveness, but that's not football. It's frustrating to try and move a character and get no response. This makes the game experience hurkey jerky and unresponsive. Since there are many animations that last many frames your players get stuck moving in ways that you don't want them to go. You have to run through the whole juke animation before you can move into another animation. To be fair, this is a trend in the PS2 version of Madden as well (each year seems a little worse), it's much worse in the PS3 version. I took the time to learn the new layout, which does have some benefits over previous versions, but the animation structure of the characters is difficult to control.

I'm not talking about the controller layout but the precision of movement when you try to move your player around. The responsiveness of the controls is very slow. For example you can't use custom button layout in all game modes. Sure the graphics are higher resolution, but the animation is sub-par and the game isn't complete in all areas. In my opinion PS3 Madden 07 is terrible from a gameplay perspective. I've played every Madden since '91 and I have worked in the video game industry.
