    Did Any Version of Madden Get Pass Interference Right?

    Serious question: I feel like one of the past gen versions had a decent amount of calls but maybe I'm wrong.

    Not that I recall. Other games have gotten it right and even had defensive holding as well.

      Probably Madden 04 or 02. After that, I don't ever remember seeing it called in Madden or NCAA ever again.

        I think last gen Maddens got DPI right but it is hard for me to remember because I only played Madden occasionally after 2000.

        I definitely remember being cautious about User pass defense in Madden and Bill Walsh on the Sega Genesis though.

            Since playing on the SNES, I cannot recall any Madden version that ever had pass interference right.

              None from what I remember, however, it got called more frequently in the last gen games in comparison to the Maddens this gen.

              Really hoping that they improve on it. Has anything been said yet about penalties?

                Yeah, I think if you slowed your guy down last gen it would be called more as well but not by much.

                I've spent 15 minutes trying to find out but it only led me towards 'that other game'

                  In order for PI to get called, you have to actively run into a player. So if you take your DB, get him in front of the WR, and just let go of the sticks, you won't get called.

                    No, but after my buddy played 2k5 he told me they called defensive holding in a game.

                      Don't know if it has been possible to accurately call PI as ball tracking hasnt been in the game untill recently and a lot of actual PI calls in the NFL are a result of deffenders not getting there head around to play the ball.

                        While is doesn't happen very often. The AI does PI me once in a while in Madden11. I hope that helps.

                          I still play Madden 05/06 on the PS2. Although Madden 05 is glitched in that PI is never called unless you literally tackle the receiver going for the ball, in 06 it does get called for both CPU and human controlled players. Anywhere from 1-3 a game.

                          For example if a receiver is running a out-in route and the defender makes contact while the ball is being thrown, more often than not PI is called. In fact I've gotten offensive pass interference called in this game believe it or not. The receiver was going for a ball thrown high and he cleared his arms towards the defender and ref called offensive PI.

                          I was like but thought it was cool.

                            My theory is that if the defender isn't making a direct stride towards the defender and actively alters the course of the WR (that is, pressing the stick), then the game considers the defender as entitled to his space. And in a way, the game is right. If a WR just runs into a defender who is standing there, that's not PI. Of course, that's not the reality of PI in Madden either.

                            One issue is simply that the CPU is never willing to take a PI, or display desperation when beat. They're more willing to just get beat.

                              It used to happen quite a bit in Madden 08 for me.
