13 or 14 for offline Dynasty?

[ab2c4]

I have been playing 11 and am thinking about getting 13 which would be $20 or 14 which should be $30 or less on Black Friday.

Looking for whichever plays the most realistic football between the two, and has the least problems with AI, etc.

Without a doubt 14 and I wouldn't even play 13 again for free after playing 14.

I skipped 13. 14 is solid. Its a great improvement from 12.

you could get 13 for about $10 off eBay, but 14 is so much better and worth the money

13 froze on me at like a 85% clip. No joke.

14 is more like 40% or even 30%, so it wins by a landslide for that reason alone for me.

This is one of those "Pick your Poison" type of questions.

Overall I would say '14. Gameplay is more balanced. CPU Option teams aren't inept as they were back in '12. The colors aren't washed out. No more jump the snap.

But there are a few things that I really miss from prior versions:
1. Custom Sounds have a pause/hitch in '14 which pretty much renders it a useless feature.
2. All those great team entrances that were touted in '12....yeah, those have been removed, and now you get a musical intro with highlights of a game that has not yet been played.
3. Post play, there is a window of a couple seconds until you can by-pass a replay or animation to get back to the play screen. It doesn't sound like much, but for me it hurts the tempo of the game. Few have mentioned this, so I am likely in the minority on this one.
