One thing I really liked. I turned the game off last night and I was pleasantly suprised to see that when I logged back in I would pick up my game where I left off. I don't know if this is in CG or not, but I really dug that I could just pick up my game and resume playing from where I left off

Wow, can anyone else corroborate this? This is extremely impressive if accurate and makes the game a must-have for me. A little shocked that this feature wasn't marketed much, especially given how busy people can get nowadays.

Pleasantly suprised by this game. Playing on default All Pro (something i NEVER did on ps3) and the CPU A.I. defense seems a little tightened up. Running has been hit or miss and pass coverage is a little tighter than on CG. Graphics are not ground-breaking but they are better. Seen some animations that i don't recall seeing before. I've only played a quarter and a half so this is subject to change lol

It's true and it's pretty damn awesome. You can even turn your PS4 off completely fired it up and pick up where you left off.

This is a feature of the PS4, not Madden.

Still it's cool.

Once they implement true step for everybody it's going to be a game changer. Work on the animations and we are in business.

Then I'm glad I own a PS4.

Madden definitely has a lot of potential headed forward. It's obviously not perfect yet but one can appreciate the steps they seem to be taking. I've been pretty happy so far. I'm at work right now and I only had time for a few games so far. Looking forward to spending some time with Madden tonight.

Re: Madden NFL 25 Impressions (PS4)

I haven't played Madden NG yet, as I am getting the XBone, but I do have an impression...But first, good to see an EA member in this thread -

Now, my impression : It seemed that there was a lot of criticism, speculation as to the quality of Madden 25 NG, in a negative manner, due to the fact that EA was being tight lipped with info, gameplay videos and non disclosure stuff; but what it appears to be fact now is, to truly get an idea of the quality of this new game, you have to actually play it....I support this impression by the consistent good reviews posted in this thread...Maybe EA did the best thing for marketing, letting the community make its own decision?

Honestly it's not really that at all. It's more the fact that what they touted and hyped doesn't really work/doesn't make that much of a difference to the quality of the game. The game benefits the most from a massively cleaned up defense for the CPU and playing offline actually presenting not only a challenge,but a challenge that feels good and not cheesy. This game could have and should have been released on the ps3. The biggest reason this game feels that much better is that it's properly balanced all across the board. Everything they did well that really makes an impact to gameplay could have been done on the ps3. As I said earlier this is not a "next gen" game. It's a good game, much better than ps3, but not a next gen game, which is what they were really trying to hype. This back of the box features it still feels like they didn't deliver on but they did end up adding much needed balance to the current gen version of madden

It's actually a feature of both PS4 and Xbone.

Maybe it could have been done on PS3, I am not a programmer so I cannot say...Seems that, regardless of where some may think it could or should have been released, the players are liking what they received...

How can you say, as a fact, that this isn't a "next gen" game? How do you know it's not the increased amount of calculations they can run in the back ground that is creating a more realistic game? Maybe the PS3 couldn't handle the true step technology.


Not trying to bash, I'm just saying, you don't know all the calculations or coding that's going on in the background.
