Madden NFL 16 Review (PS4/Xbox One)

[Armor and Sword]

Once the patch drops that addresses the CFM bugs, and commentary bugs the game is a solid 8.5/10 for me.


Huge strides made this year in gameplay.

Expectations haven't changed at all. People want a football experience grounded in authenticity that is fun, and by this reviewer's account Madden delivers exactly that on the field.

You are entitled to your opinion disagreeing with that assessment, however.

Already has it's own thread and in another thread.

Very little mention of what's missing despite there being so much football missing, basics that have been requested for years. TombSong touches on several.

The review is based on what Madden is selling, which is what they've been selling, plus some peripheral upgrades that always seem to lack proper tuning.

But yeah, everyone's idea of authenticity seems to differ.

lets be clear, lets talk football before gaming. name me any football game REAL LIFE within the last twenty years that did not , and I repeat did not have face masking, holding, clipping and cheerleaders. Now lets talk gaming, I could be wrong, but rex said in a interview (director of madden at ea sports) said one of madden new features is face masking, clipping, and holding. I'm just saying its been over twelve years and you're now putting that in the game. Im sorry to rain on your parade from your comment to this guy. 2k 5 did that over 10 years ago and your now doing. Madden is trash for a lot of reasons period.

And we use to take hot baths with heated rocks so I guess hot water sucks and you should go back to the old way.

Not sure what you are referring to, those penalties have been in the game for a long long time.

So, I don't think you are raining on anyone's parade at the moment.
