Madden or...

[fudgie]

I've come into a great fortune recently. Well, actually, Amazon sent me a code to B1G1F. So my buddy and I are splitting the code so we each get a game for 30 dollars each for launch. I preordered a bundle for another friend so that's why I got the code. So, regardless.. I'm wondering if Madden 25 is a worthy Next Gen first game title?

My options so far are Madden, NBA2K and AC4. My last Madden was last year for the 360, and it was my first Madden in a couple years. I liked it a lot. This years NextGen Madden has my puzzled though.

What's new about it? I've seen the graphics, but I've seen hardly anything else about the game play. Sure the linemen seem more intelligent, but is that a huge game changer? Will the features be stripped out of it? Because then I'm not interested.

I'm not a huge basketball fan but NBA2k looks AMAZING. I'm just worried I won't play it enough to justify buying it.

I enjoyed AC3, and AC4 looks awesome. But I hate the lack of replayability for myself in these kinds of games. It's why I'm strictly a sports gamer.

What is everyone's opinion? Is Madden worth it or is it a supped up PS3 version stripped of features ala the last launch cycle games.

Is NBA2K a game that can transcend passion for a sport and get me hooked to watching "real" life basketball?
