OS Roundtable: If You Could Add One Feature To Madden...

I am tired of going 23 / 27 and having 3 of those incompletions be interceptions, and the only other incompletion be a dropped pass. Quarterback play is, especially today, the fundamentally recognizable aspect of the sport of American football. I'd like to see a world where Tom Brady can throw for 65% and still have a good game, instead of throwing for 87% and being guaranteed that the handful of non-completions to wide receivers were either INTs or drops. Balls hitting the ground, balls being batted down, contested non-receptions. Madden 25 on nextgen is probably the worst Madden when it comes to this, at least as far back as, say, Madden '01 on PS2. If there is one feature that I think they could achieve: Stable, locked 60 frames per second. They'd get a lot of praise for doing this, as well.

I can't agree more. I hate throw a wr open with a passion. The route based system where timing and ball placement along the route is so much more rewarding and realistic. It's a big reason I keep going back to apf.

I'm a simple person. Just give me a game on PAR with the PS2 versions of Madden.

If you shook your head while reading that statement like I did, you understand how sad it is that we're having this discussion in 2014 with how far technology has come.

Sadly I didn't shake my head. I agree with you. In a way I feel like Madden skipped the whole PS3/Xbox 360 generation with just lackluster games filled with gimmicks.

I used to stay up for hours playing PS2 Madden and would love to see them get back to that.

I wouldn't call it a feature, but defense. Especially that whole "the TE can't be covered in Man" thing. It's ****ing lovely.
