Ok everybody, lets start picking at every minute detail in this 2 min off-screen clip.... GO!

Does the way the QB is holding the football when he drops back look kind of off to anyone here? Do you think that could be improved any?

And I am not seeing any NFL Cheerleaders on the sidelines. I thought with nextgen cheerleaders would be in for sure.

The game plays the exact same as current gen. Same animations ugly Qb dropbacks and everything, on that half back draw from shotgun the back gets hit in the backfield by one defender and the other defender just stopped immediately and didn't even bother to help out on the tackle, he stopped because it was a pre-determine canned outcome.
This frickin game is a total joke now. If they renew the NFL license, we should start a petition and send it to the president, I'm serious!

Does look a little funny. Don't think it will be changed this year.

I like the new graphics. I can see a big difference in the player skin tone. It actually looks like flesh. I like the player models but don't understand why Dion Jordan is so thick and fat. As far as smart glass goes. I don't know if it's game changing but definitely a nice add-on imo.

Im feeling less and less excitement about NG madden with the more footage I see, the fact that I had to say to myself is this current gen footage or next gen footage makes me want to cancel my pre order. Besides for lighting and textures what is really different, and these same cutscenes coming over from current gen is simply and eye soar to say the least.

Same EA mindset just a differnt console isnt going to work for me. I guess I was a fool to think that NG wouldnt be anything like the current gen game but I shouldve known better.

They obviously just ported the current gen version over for Madden 25 on Xbox1/PS4, all along I've felt Madden 15(next year) would be the decisive game for the future of Madden.

Wow...Looks like nothing like the E3 videos. Same ole below average gameplay on a very powerful console. This is why Mike Wang left EA after just one year and went back to 2K. They don't want to put the work that's required to produce a good product, and apparently don't have the know how. This video is beyond disappointing. Going to go cancel my pre-order today.

I've been as critical of Madden as the next guy but that play looked nothing like current gen on the oline. You can see handfighting, a olineman actually turning his defender away from the play rather than pointing directly upfield and then the DE that makes the tackle actually has an animation to get off the block. The tackle was already made by the time the OLB got to the play there was nothing to help out on. A lot of the rest of the video looks very similar but the oline/dline interaction does not.
