Madden in screenshots look just as detailed. If you go read the thread where this picture came from the first 4-5 pages are talking about all of the details that are incorrect or a little off. But too each his own.

No it really doesn't. The skin shaders in the 2k screen shot is a generation ahead of Madden next gen. Thankfully, we have just seen screenshots. We've seen a video of the game in motion and it outclasses madden. I really have nothing positive to say about Madden next gen. Its just disappointing.

NBA 2K has footage that hasn't been torn to shreds yet and it looks and moves just as good as these screenshots. Madden's screenshots don't look this good to me and they don't even come close to actual footage.

Look how much better a game that came out 5 YEARS ago looks than a 2014 "next-gen" game



EA is pathetic.

Compare this screen from LAST year to that video, there just isn't enough difference to justify a purchase from what we have seen so far.

I know it's not fair to for me want graphics this good in next gen Madden yet. Madden does have some technical hurdles, more players, bigger stadiums, more complicated rules etc., but I want to feel this attention to detail and the across-the-board upgrades. Everything looks so much better, his hands, the ball, the arm sleeve, his facial hair, it's amazing.

I can't compare 2k next Gen screenshot to nba live yet but I do know this. It's not fair to use a game like basketball to compare to a football game. It's not as many player models on the field/ court as a football game. That why attention to detail can be better than a game like Madden. Fifa is a better comparison. However I do understand where a lot of you guys are coming from in talking about the graphics of Madden 25 Next Gen. Think though, this game should get better in that department in years to come. Let's just hope so.

I thought this was Madden 25 on Next gen.

It really is such a small difference.

You're right though if Madden 25 Next Gen looked like that I would lose my mind.

I just youtubed and watched the full video of this GIF and I have the biggest headache, from seeing just how far off madden is from replicating anything we see on Sundays in the NFL. Im done with Madden until I see quality gameplay like this, not flashy names like true step to put on the back of the box, but has no real effect on the gameplay.

Beyond just the obvious gameplay superiority... I love the small nuances that 2k has. How players jump over players after plays.. how they look after they catch the ball and turn up field..etc. Look how the DE is rushing the QB. It looks lifelike... the momentum, the speed. everything.

Although I still have hope for Madden 15 and that it will be THE game that we've been waiting on, unless I see something very drastically different from Madden 25 next gen soon, I am officially OFF the hype train.

My expectations have gone from VERY high(E3), to lower(October footage before today), to this is underwhelming even to me now(after looking at this video a few times).

I'm not even sure I will get Madden 25 next gen now and I was planning on buying a Xbox One BECAUSE of Madden 25 next gen.

It's time to see results

You're starting to see the light my friend. All of us want what you want, trust me. The excuses started coming out a few months ago. It went from, "we've been working on this for 2 years", to, "just wait until we get a full dev cycle". I made the mistake of popping in APF the other day... Going back to madden is like driving a tricycle after I get out of my porsche.

As someone who has worked in software for a long time, I know it's not easy, but it isn't as hard as they make it out to be either. They are an inept team who has little understanding of their own product. The code is clearly a mess, the talent level is not very good and the vision is even worse.

Football gaming is a bottom feeder and will continue until we get someone else more capable of making an NFL game.

you cant honestly tell me, that all pro 2k8 gameplay and graphics with a franchise mode thats just equal to maddens wouldnt be able to compete with madden 25 on this gen or next. If they threw in full team customization, the community would take care of the "exclusive license."

Not sure why the poll on OS that asked about a fully customizable ncca game wasnt more positive but I know with solid gameplay like this and a dynasty or franchise mode and it would be a seller, and it would only get better. I would love to see a football gaming world with 2k still in it.

Its a shame that the litle things like some of the examples you stated become so big becuase we are not seeing it in Madden at all. Theres a smoothness to the all pro game that Madden hasnt even come close to. I just wonder is it a matter of not knowing how to do what 2k did years ago or just being to stuburn to follow the competions blueprint.

Not to mention, that catch animation is silly and it happens frequently. I've already seen it like 20 times.
