Madden 25

[donofriose]

Madden is an entertaining game to play no matter how much hate it gets. It is not a great sports game but not terrible either. So a C or a low B would be a good grade in my opinion. Or about an 81 like someone posted previously. The graphics do get better every year but obviously there is still a lot of room for improvement. Is it worth 60? Probably not but it is a football game so who can resist.

I think people are just expecting too much from Madden. I am curious to see how it looks for Xbox one/PS4. I would like there to be another company to "compete" with Madden just because I remember the greatest improvements in the game was when there was another company creating a similar product.

The more I play this new one the more I like it. I'm even liking the new zoomed out camera. You can really see plays develop much better. I agree I think part of the problem is people's expectations are just unreasonable, it's a video game and football is a complex game. It's never going to be exactly like real life. Plus I think there are always those that hate EA for having the exclusive deal with the NFL. Heck, people hate EA for a number of reasons.

How is everyone enjoying franchise mode on the new Madden. Building a franchise and SIMing the game is my favorite part of Madden. Would I be happy with this one?

I got paid today (unexpectedly soon considering I just started working last week) so I'm picking this up tomorrow.

Hope it's good.

Yeah running is way too easy. Gotta work the sliders.

Yeah I got a copy the first day it came out. I'm a big Ultimate Team guy myself, but the running is "smoother" this year. When you back runs up into the back of one of his O-Line men, he will use his free arm to sort of push off to get around the guy, which is more realistic than the "butt fumble, Mark Sanchez" type move they would do last year. I will also say that the DBs are nasty this year, as far as picks go. You really have to have a pretty good open window to complete a pass. I play on All Pro and a good corner or saftey will snatch anything close if he is near the ball.

Does anyone know if there is a way to play with Sean Taylor but still control the whole team in connected careers (franchise) mode? Would be a lot of fun. Still awesome to be able to use him though.

anyone know if they fixed the salary cap glitch that was present in madden 13?
it kinda ruined the game for me, i would be over negative $40m up until the draft - never a chance to sign any free agents.

i was able to amass over 20 1st round picks every season but it was extremely hard to trade for top shelf talent.

i'm waiting for the price to go down before i buy this one; still playing 13, in the 5th season on my franchise.

Can't believe it but the game actually plays much smoother with them

eh maybe not so good after all, every game is a shootout and the ball never hits the ground

[DynamiteRave]

I'm pissy that the roster update doesn't work at all in connected franchise, at least not for the PS3.

Update rosters, import roster into connected franchise and viola! You still have the same old ass roster before the update!

EA really twists my dreads.

good news, i signed verner and tate; on the cheap:
verner 7 year/ 42m / 7m guaranteed
tate 7 year / 27.3m / 6.3m guaranteed

i really like that you can save your ccm during the draft in madden 25.
