Are you ready for some Madden 09 achievements?

Our buddies over at 360Sync have already gotten into their Fall football mindset, exclusively releasing a list of Madden NFL 09's achievements. The complete list can be viewed after the jump, but we came across a few achievement highlights including the "Steal Their Thunder" achievement for stealing your opponent's celebration (nice use of T.O.'s mug) and "Midway Monster" where you have to create a legendary player from the past. We're also mildly offended by the "Slam Dunk All-Star" where it awards 30 Gamerscore to those who "dunk the ball over the goalpost (or at least attempt to) after a touchdown." Attempt? Psht, when we go for the goalpost dunk we don't attempt, we execute with flair.

Lol, wtf?

Why are there achievements for doing certain tasks with like 3 teams?

Rush for 6 TDs with the Dolphins? Throw for 7 TDs with the falcons? Rush for 300 yards with the Jets?

Yet none featuring any other teams, nor are those in any way related to the teams you have to do them with.

What the hell, that's so random, lol.

Because the Dolphins, Jets and Falcons were so bad last year, there's no way anyone would play them except to get achievement points.

Haha, fair enough.

But as a Dolphin fan, that hurts. It hurts because it's true.

I think the point is that they are a bit more challenging with the teams that are required for the achievements.

Have you ever tried throwing ONE touchdown with Joey Harrington let alone SEVEN?
