Yeah the mocap direction has proved to be bad. What these guys allow to be in the game just shows bad judgement. I really don't think they care how the game looks, as long as they get it running and done. Some of the animations just boggle my mind of how off they are from NFL athletes.

Their animation engine is atrocious, always has been. There is nothing wrong with gameplay based around animations, as long as they're done right. See APF and 2K5 for glorious animations. Great physics would be ideal, but I definitely don't feel like physics based gameplay is a must yet.

At this point, I really wish EA would clean house and fire everyone at Tiburon. I'd rather a new batch of Developers and programmers take over and code Madden from scratch rather then continuing along the same tired path.

As you can see clearly, there is no improvement in regards to player animations, tackling, or atmosphere. With the PS4 and XBOX ONE launching soon, there should be no reason for anyone to say " Mmmmm.....Well I believe ESPN2k5 or Backbreaker does this better". Those games were on inferior hardware!!!!Those games shouldn't even be in one's thought process when it comes to Madden 25 on Next Gen.

Where's the player specific running animations?
Where's Authentic QB drop back?
Where's the mouthpieces? (Marshwn Lynch)

Why am I still asking for these things in the year 2014?????? WHY?????

Remember when Cam Weber said the Tiburon team learned from their mistakes when launching Madden 06 for XBOX 360? What mistakes did they learn from because I can clearly see not much has changed....

Scary fact: we are entering the second generation of gaming in a row with only one NFL game on the market.

I refuse to believe that Dolphins-Saints video was next gen because it looked and played just like my PS3 version. The animations, player movements, players falling down all over was the same (and poorly done). Those are all things I expected HUGE improvements in. If that is what I have to look forward to on the PS4 then I won't be buying a PS4 until Uncharted 4 comes out. I see no reason to upgrade for Madden.

one thing for that to be in the game... but why would tiburon show that in the trailer? do they want their game to look like nfl blitz? they are clueless.
