This review is wacky but part of the issue is only the ball carrier follows sim which is true step while everyone else isn't using true step so it makes the game unbalanced and seem off

Re: IGN: Madden NFL 25 PS4 & Xbox One Video Review

I agree with some of what he mentioned, but didn't think this was a great review. I felt like he was giving Madden bad marks for the few positive advancements they've made instead of touching on the glaring oversights/lies.

Also, I bet this guy is more so someone who plays in tournaments and relies on CPU errors, glitches, and money plays to win/have a good time... And the part about "being too real for its own good?" - seriously - did Tiburon hand pick this dude. "See! Nobody wants a realistic football game, just look at this review!" Please EA, if you must continue making the only football game out there, at least keep going in the direction of sim & realism.

Here is Clint Oldenburgs reaction on Twitter:

Too realistic you say?

Secondly, if one would have to play it before giving input, how is his input any less valid than yours or 99% of others around here?

You may want to be careful with "High Horse" accusations in the future....
Seems Cheyenne has the holier than thou attitude...Essentially labeling people in a negative manner based on how they viewed the game...

I thought there was this huge stickied thread about how only constructive criticism was allowed and phrases like "the crap EA produces" was grounds for banishment?

For reference:



But I guess it's okay to say things like that now? Because if so... well... I've got a few choice words to say about the game myself!
You're free to say you hate the game and think its crap all you want.

I've thought it's been crap for the most part for a couple years now. That's a fact (how I feel about the game that is). Re read my post if you think I said you can't say anything negative about the game.

I could have done without the "I'm here to set the record straight" attitude but nowhere in his post did he attack anyone personally other than small generalizations which if you find it insulting, I apologize.

And to clarify a bit, it's all about context.

Dropping into a thread and just saying this game sucks and that's it is not okay.

If you say as part of a larger point, it's not an issue. That larger point may not have been one you necessarily agree with but you will come across that at any forum.

He didn't violate the TOS. His post was no different than individuals who say similar things to those who proclaim to be junk without even playing it.

So? There are a lot people in this forum with a similar attitude all the time. You yourself have exhibited a bit of it against anyone who claims the game junk.

It's not against the TOS. It may be a turnoff to you and it is to me too, but much like what I've done with some of your posts it's better to ignore the post if it bothers you that much and move on rather than come back with a smart response.

I never go to IGN, Gamestop, etc for ANY sports game reviews. Most of the experts in that area are on this site.

I have never called anyone crazy, directly or indirectly, in any of my posts..I have challenged peoples' assertions, but in my years of studies never has there been a case where challenging another persons' assertions has ever been frowned upon....

If I have made any post that you or anyone else finds as a "turn off," then please state so then, else hold your peace...Stating something like, "like what I've done with some of your posts it's better to ignore," long after the fact where proof is most likely lost in the shuffle.

From my knowledge I have said nothing offensive....

The Cheyenne person did jump into a thread and said the game sucked and that people who disagree are crazy, and he based this off his opinion without support; he left himself open to retorts.

anywho, in the end I cannot win against a moderator, so I have said my peace and am done with it.
