i don't think they took it away. I believe you can use either the buttons or the hit stick

There must be some controls in place on the E3 floor as to what is allowed to be captured on video. We can barely praise or critique based on the limited amounts we're allowed to see.

I was able to see the Bucs new uniform. It looks alright.

Do u honestly think u need to see more at this point? what u see is what u get. I just watched a video with two of the "gamechangers" basically breaking it down saying the game has improved. And from the looks of it to me it has but not much. Still didnt improve on wr/db interactions tho, player movement still looks static and robotic, and the transitional animations has'nt been improved opon and it sticks out like a sore thumb....... But overall I think it has improved visually.

It could be Madden 25 2.0 and I'll still get it because it's the only football game available. I wish I didn't love the sport as much as I do or else I'd shrug my shoulders and move on, but that's not the case.

again we are talking about how the game PLAYS based of how it LOOKS. Impossible to do.

People still try to argue that Madden 25 didn't change from Madden 13 because it "looks" the same. Those are two drastically different experiences. I expect Madden 15 to be the same way. Of course there are things that needs to be fixed. If you thought Madden was going to be fixed in on year, you're delusional. But it's about the progression and if the gamePLAY progresses then I will be happy. Sounds like it has. Have to have realistic expectations with all the factors in mind.

Personally, I think just the fact that all QBs aren't equally accurate will change the way Madden is played. People over look how incredibly easy passing in Madden has been. Not to mention if they truly eliminate being able to stand in the pocket for 5+ seconds on a regular basis. Real football strategy is finally going to come into play this year, before sliders get involved, and I will be happy about that.

There's your issue.

Don't pay any attention to anything any of the 'GameChangers' or wanna-be 'GameChangers' say. They're worthless (not as people, though some may fall into that category) when it comes to games.

Madden is going to be Madden. Whether you hate, like or love it you know what you're getting. This forum does this same stupid song and dance every year. They have been for a long time.

Man, I see why the Madden team wants to limit exposure on videos. That previous clip was probably set to rookie mode so I'm not too concerned. The presentation looks nice...real excited to see the halftime show. Overall, not where I want it to be, but still a pretty nice upgrade from M25.

Is Gameflow still an option?
