Re: Madden

..Hell no. The gameplay is just as Madden as it ever has been. You can't challenge plays. Who cares? The gameplay, if anything, is more realistic than it was before. It's much harder to break off a long run now, which is very satisfying for me.. You really have to work hard to free up a reciever, or make adjustments at the line of scrimmage to take advantage of matchups because the AI has been spiced up a bit also. I'm glad I bought this game on launch.. It's great..

Sorry but I think the gameplay is good it may lack some of the modes but the gameplay is solid. I am and always have been a fan of Madden but I also like 2K and Blitz but Madden plays well and looks good I think they may have over did the effects with each QB's Eyes always zooming in but I think it was decent.

I found the running game to be easy. The only thing is that I get called for offensive holding almost every damn time I run for a good size gain. The passing game is also fairly easy, especially when I use the vision thing. I'm not sure what my comp. % is, but I'll look it up if there's a way. This is on All Pro, by the way. Even Pro was waaaay too easy.

As far as challenging plays goes, it SUCKS that you can't. I've had a ton of plays that were not ruled a fumble and it obviously was, or a team caught the ball in/out of bounds, etc. but there's nothing I can do about it.

I'll give EA some credit though. It looks like they've stepped the visuals up. Visuals are great, anouncing is ok, gameplay is still the same. At least it doesn't look like Madden 96 or something.

Nothing personal though. Everyone likes a different type of gameplay. I, obviously, preferred the 2k series over Madden and it's cool that you like Madden more. So no hard feelings or anything.

Re: Madden

Definitely not.. (hard feelings)


But let me just get this one thing straight; I don't like sports games with an arcadey-type of feel to them.. a few examples could be : NFL BLITZ, NHL HITZ, etc.. I like simulation style, I'm a sucker for realism.. But yeah I also play on all-pro.. I'm 2-2 in my franchise with the Browns so far..

Maybe consider bumping it up to All-Madden!

Re: Madden

Funny how I was talking about how easy it was. I just barely won my closest game yet (now 2-0 regular season).

The score was 27-29 (I think). Jags had the ball and ran the clock down. Attempted a field goal on 4th down with 28 seconds left, but missed. Now it was my ball with 25 seconds left in the game. Called a Play Action and passed down the field to about the 20 yard line to Harrison. Catch! Hurried up the offense with around 10 seconds left, threw a bullet again to Harrison, TOCHDOWN! Ended at 34-29 with the extra point and 1 second left on the clock.
