Re: Madden NFL 13 Demo Available Now, Post Your Impressions Here (360, PS3)

Apparently posting that Madden 13 feels like an arcade game, even though tons of people feel the same way, is egregious. My bad. It's not like I won't buy the game, gotta have Madden, but it played like **** in the demo. Deal with it.

Oh look, another bomb to Nicks. That was hard.

So because YOU say it, and because you keep peddling your little review of a DEMO around here, we're all supposed to be in conjunction that the game is pure ****?

Sure, it has it's problems, as does EVERY video game EVER made. NBA 2K12, MLB The Show, ALL have problems. For you to say that it's a step backwards and pure trash is just you spewing trash out of your mouth.

It has problems, glitches, bugs, doesn't play 100% accurate to the game of NFL football, but guess what, no game EVER has and NEVER will. NFL 2K5 didn't, APF 2K8 didn't, and no game ever will.

But what we have here is a pretty damn good NFL sim that will provide a lot of fun for a lot of people. You're trashing it just to trash it.

Just played the demo for the first time. I really liked it. Only thing I'm dissapointed about is the kicking isnt as sim as I'd like.


Whats going to make or break this game for me is the game modes

Iv'e come to the conclusion that the majority of the people on this board don't know what they want when it comes to Madden.

EVERY single year, Madden is the worst ever, Madden takes a step back from the previous. Give me a break. If you're not noticing the improvements to this game, you're either blind, or you just have an agenda.

If Madden takes a step back every year, Madden 06 should be the best of this generation, but that's sure as hell not the case is it?

From over complaining about the lighting, to saying the infinity engine is a step back and actually makes the game worse? Seriously just stop it. I'll never get half of you people. No matter what game EA puts out it will be disappointing and the worst ever.

Ummm... you can barely tell who's who during the Redskins - Seahawks game.

This will always be a mediocre game until it comes to PC. But they're afraid of that. There is no room for mediocrity on Pc unlike the consoles. Sure, they will use the piracy argument, which is complete BS. Just an excuse. Real reason is they are afraid of Pc mods etc.

Like this they can keep making incremental, non-significant changes and market the hell out of it like it's a brand new title. Small changes every year.

Having said that, I disagree that it's a step backwards. That's just anger.

Is it mediocre though?... Of course it is. That's why it's only on consoles.

I just didn't think it felt like a sim at all. Players change directions on a dime without losing speed. Tacklers bounce off each other like ping pong balls. It felt like arcade action TO ME. To each his own, I guess. I sure hope there are improvements for the game's full release, as I'll be playing a lot of it regardless and don't want to score 50 a game on the hardest difficulty.

Just for the record, I have not had this problem at all. I can see colors and jerseys and differentiate the two teams just fine.

I believe everyone who is saying they have an issue, but I just don't see it.

Re: Madden NFL 13 Demo Available Now, Post Your Impressions Here (360, PS3)

I really
Dont understand how any hardcord madden players can't appreciate this demo, sure there are negative things about certain aspects
But the overall feel of the demo is the best madden ever, i
Know this statement is used almost every year with madden....but with the features added plus physics how
Can anyone say any other madden is better and the change isnt noticeable...

Unless this game has significant changes on the season ticket version, I am going to pass on Madden this year. I cannot get over how terrible the tackling looks. RTP on Madden is not ready for primetime.

Re: Madden NFL 13 Demo Available Now, Post Your Impressions Here (360, PS3)

You serious? Wow... I think someone may be exaggerating just a tad.

I think the game looks promising personally.

Exaggerating? No.

While some claim that those of us complaining have an "agenda", on the flip side I wonder if those people happy with this game are fans of real football.

I've explained why I dislike this demo on page 115. Graphics and animations are atrocious and cartoony. Gameplay is horrible with some of the worst "change of direction" gameplay I have ever seen. The AI is still ridiculously incompetent.

I was actually quietly hyping this game, hoping it would be good, and then EA comes out with the biggest load of football garbage I've seen yet.

But hey, the announcers are better...

Really though? You come into a MADDEN thread and bring that sh*t? Get lost

My major issue is that tackling looks horrendous. There are barely no wrap up tackles, looks like a bowling bowl game.

I can deal with what's not in the game, we've know that for months, including foot planting and the franchise features from last year left out.

This build better be an old one and better be tuned before Aug. 28th.

Please stop spamming the thread with your reviews. Everytime you post a link I click on it thinking it is something different.

Everything you just said can be flipped back around on you. That you're praising it just to praise it.

We genuinely don't like it. Is any game perfect? No. But there is nothing even close to "sim" about this demo. Graphics and animations are cartoony as all get out. AI is completely incompetent. Physics don't apply to runners, which allows all players to change direction at will with no regards to physics and momentum. This game isn't sim, it's NFL Jam.

PC elitism? Really?

His comment wasn't pc elitism at all. He wasn't saying pc players are somehow better at the game or know more. He was simply saying that given nodding capabilities at home programmers would potentially be able to fix many of the problems in the game and expose deficiencies in the madden programming team.
