I like this Madden better than the current-gen version.

Looks very good in comparison. The interactive sidelines are a definite plus but they have left a lot undone to the sidelines as well. Crowds look slightly better but at times you can notice them not even looking at the action on the field.

As far as gameplay, I think the movement of the players have slightly improved over current-gen but animations still are down right awful at times. Especially tackling animations, definitely lack realistic variety of tackles. The game also still suffers from A.I. awareness issues.

I will sort of give them a pass on this "next-gen" version as the devs did not have a full developmental cycle to completely overhaul the game. But I would hope they do overhaul the game from head to toe for the next Madden.

There will be no excuses then!!!!!!!!

I agree with the other brothers here though.... We need NFL 2K15!!!!

There was just an illegal touching call in my game!!!! That's not even listed as a penalties slider!! Plus it went against my opponent! ! Nice!!

This is suppose to be the NEXT-GENERATION of sports gaming and all we are getting is slightly better game play with PS3.5 graphics. I still think ESPN 2K5 is better visual and gameplay game then this PS4 Madden 25 garbage. I PRAY 2K SPORTS starts making NFL games again..... LORD PLEASE!! If we got an NFL 2K15 Game that looked like NBA 2K14 I think everyone would finally get a NEXT-GENERATION game WE ALL DESERVE!!

Please at least be honest. Your not one of the biggest Madden/EA fans if you want ESPN 2k5 back.... Please people stop this crap, 2k is dead. I was never even close to a fan of that series I played it quite a bit when they dropped the price to the $20 new release or whatever the price was but it never surpassed madden in my eyes.

To each their own, but I'm good with ''settling'' for this, let's get back on topic guys.

Aren't you the game changer that said Madden 25 CG was a great game as well as Madden 13? "Common Man".

No I'm not a GC and I don't feel like M25 cg is a great game, it's a ok game and next gen M25 looks better than it, I haven't played it yet, but it sounds like most people are enjoying it.
