More On: Madden NFL 09
EA Sports has announced a "new" feature that will be included in the 20th Madden NFL game Madden NFL 09 (no super fancy titles here). The new feature will increase how much you want to play the game. How can it do that you ask? Well because now every time you score a touchdown you can coordinate your victory celebration moves with your player on screen. Yes, that's right, the new feature is dancing. ONce in the touch down zone run your player up to a hot spot, press a corresponding button, and watch the animated mayhem. It is the equivalent of "T-bagging" in Halo multiplayer.


 

EA SPORTS GIVES GAMERS A NEW WAY TO CELEBRATE IN MADDEN NFL 09

 

All New User Celebration Feature Lets You Get into the Game

 

July 29, 2008 – TOUCHDOWN!  Time to celebrate with the all new user celebration feature, just one of 85 new gameplay features included in first game that adapts to you, Madden NFL 09.  The 20th Anniversary installment of the award winning Madden NFL franchise hits stores nationwide on August 12, 2008.

 

Lambeau Leap into the stands with the Packers or bust a move with T.O. in the new Dallas Cowboys stadium - user celebrations lets players celebrate the way they want with a new control system that is activated after every trip to the end zone.  Once a touchdown is scored, run into the hotspot located in the end zone and press the corresponding button to get your player moving with signature dance moves or agile tricks.  Tired of the same moves with one player, steal the celebrations of other players in the league to keep the celebration going.  All celebrations are player specific – allowing you to do the river dance with Chad Johnson, or the simply flip the ball like LaDainian Tomlinson.
