Figuring that will hold true this year.

EA has been working on next gen stuff for over a year (possibly 2 supposedly) and with the architecture more like PC it should be a lot easier to get a great start and nothing like the PS3/360 releases.
I really hope that's the case. Either way I'll be in line day 1.

I thought Madden 2007 on PS3 was one of the more enjoyable current gen Madden's that I've ever played.

I'd take it over pretty much all of the others. At least you could throw over a defender's head and players weren't anorexic. Not to mention it had individual running styles and a more palatable running animation...

Yeah Madden 07 had some nice ideas at the time, but was still awful imo. 10 & 12 were my favs this gen, but again still not great games.

The PS3 version of 07 was better than the 360 version, so if you played on 360, might skew it a little to the negative side.

I know I'm in the minority (might be the only one in fact lol), but I thought that 07 PS3 was the best current gen Madden overall, even though it wasn't really good. I just like the way that the passing game worked. You could ALWAYS throw over a defender if they trailed a play and it realistically should go over their head. You could actually overthrow deep passes if you pushed up too long or threw too early. You could always reliably lead a receiver and not have the ball magically underthrown like how it is in every other current gen Madden, which allows the defender to make a play even when a few steps behind the receiver.

It had gang tackling which somehow looked better than some of the more recent attempts at gang tackling (Madden 10 was just a joke in this regard).

The running animations, though poor, were still better than any since the Ortiz error (intentional) of Madden. We also had signature running styles. (High and tight Tiki!)

And the player models, again, though poor, were a little more palatable to me than now. I'd rather everyone be overly muscular than overly skinny if I had to choose between the two.

It was bad, but at least I could get into some of the stuff in it more than other current gen Maddens. Like I said, know I'm in the minority, but some of my biggest pet peeves are the animations and the passing game, and they were both better than any other current gen Madden to me.

It looks like "high and tight" will be in Madden 25


Which is good because that's how he carries the ball in real life, hopefully we see more of these signature running styles in M25.

Didn't notice that. Good catch.

Are we sure that they don't all hold the ball this way though? I'm asking cause I honestly don't know. I'm usually focusing to see if there is any fix to the more obvious animation errors, so I sometimes miss something that they actually did well, I must admit.

Can't see the vid, but that was my fave. Feel free to call me crazy lol.

That was the last Madden that I logged over 200 matches online. The most I've played on a Madden online since is probably 4 or 5, with that number being zero on the last 2 or 3 Madden's.
