    OS Fact or Fiction: Breaking Down E3 Edition


    With E3 winding down and with our first glimpses at this year's sports games almost exclusively coming from EA, this year's show was definitely a bit quieter than many in the past. However, the games shown off this year all had a lot of details about how they're going to actually be playing on the field. Here are some thoughts on what we have learned from the show.

      I'm hoping NHL 15 is awesome. It seems like everyone who was at e3, both writers and casuals, really enjoyed the game and thought it was fantastic. But that gameplay video...

        You 2k fanboys are hilarious. 2k develops one major sports game currently, nba2k, and that game has just as many bugs and legacy issues as any other game out. What makes you think 2k football would be a far superior football experience?! One good game almost 10 years ago???

          I'm happy EA is getting away from back-of-the-box feature development and getting back to trying to simulate sports in a fun way. Here's to hoping NBA Live and rise up and become a decent game this year too.

            I hope you don't mean the one that was taken on a cell phone of two people who didn't know how to play....

              I hope I have a tough choice to make in September over whether I'm buying a PS4 and joining the current-gen of gaming. Madden looks too stale to justify a $400 investment.

              Help me NHL 15, you're my only hope

                You could be right but I can guarantee you that their presentation would blow Maddens away lol. I'd be willing to bet that 2K would have things like correct penalties, signature animations, proper AI, more flushed out franchise mode with better presentation, etc..all in year one! We shall see....

                  I don't see how anyone could be excited for a racing game that's only 30fps smh. I'm sorry but 30fps for a racing game is not Next Gen in my opinion.

                      NFL 2k4 and NFL 2k3 were also good. Honestly, I believe if they gave NFL 2k5 the graphics of this gen, it would still be a better game than Madden. NFL 2k5 is still the best football game ever made imo. I don't want to dislike Madden because I want to play a football game. But I'll be damned if I fall into EA's marketing garbage and Madden's struggle to find an identity. Switching developers, implementing and removing features, while still not implementing aspects that were present in NFL 2k5, a PS2/Xbox game, justifies any distaste towards Madden and anyone who has a brain knows EA understands they've been riding Madden mostly off the fact that there is no competition and they can't go wrong business wise since they're the only game for America's most popular sport. Madden's problem is it never consistently shows improvement, and for whatever reason refuses to implement what made NFL 2k5 so great. Real talk.

                        Agreeed but Madden does look much better this year. I will give it a rental for sure.

                          What made 2K so good wasn't the gameplay. It was the presentation and the extras (the Crib was an awesome way to ad replayability). I loved 2K5 but the only reason people think it's so great was due to the inclusion of SportsCenter. Take that out and the game was good, not great.

                          I want 2K back in the fold for competition purposes. However, Madden has improved every year. Maybe not leaps and bounds like people hope but Madden is a good game. With the updated visuals and presentation this year it looks be improved again.

                          Too many people bash Madden because it is the thing to do.
                          What?

                            100% agree. My fear is that if a new NFL 2K was released it would have single player that required you to be connected to the 2K servers at all times, an over abundance of VC and terrible online play.

                              EA sports needs to get the NASCAR license back or Sony and make a new NASCAR game and make it for the next gen consoles! Not the garbage NASCAR games Activision or whatever they call themselves has been putting out! I was hoping EA sports was going to suprise everybody and show a new PGA tour golf game for the next gen consoles at E3!
