Give Madden a whole new look.

[Noobstur]

It's nice to see all the menus with their futuristic shiny glossy look, but wouldn't it be better to see a Madden game look more like a sport game and less futuristic without all those effects that they add in their menus?

They should just keep it simple: make their whole menus look more lighter, colorful, arcadish and more kid-like and less depressing and not as dark as it is now. Make it look like a real football sports game. That will better suit those pump-up songs that they add year after year.

Your opinions?

Basically the type of menu look that will suit this song:
(Best Madden song ever! )

I would much rather they stick with the current theme than this:

make their whole menus look more lighter, colorful, arcadish and more kid-like

Just my opinion though.

I like last gen menu's better with team specific and each menu selection was a white rectangle. I dont know it just looked and felt better, kinda like mvp 05's menu.

Great Madden song!


But, Madden 10's menus look pretty scaled down from last year, to me. I actually kind of miss the more busy look. I want to see highlights happening in the background! Wait, wasn't that already in a Madden game?

Yeah, aside from not having team customizable menus, I really like the new menu system.

I'm sick of looking at Troy and Fitz however.

TEAM SPECIFIC MENUS PLEEEESE!

No, kidding. It is annoying when they are retired in your franchise and they are still up there!

No Photoshop mock-ups?

I personally like the style they have in 10, but other ideas are always cool to discuss. Mock-ups would definitely add to the discussion.

Re: Give Madden a whole new look.

what's even more annoying is that after you edit anything about anybody in the player edit screen, it kicks you out to the team overview screen, right after it asks you 3 or 4 times if you truly want to save your changes... seriously

Re: Give Madden a whole new look.

if i remember correctly the older maddens around 04 and 05 had more simple menus i think the menus were in a white block text with team specific back grounds. those were nice and simple if i remember correctly and i like thtr more than the current one as well i dont mind the futuristic look i just dont like having black everywhere its too dark for me.

OMG that song brings back so many Madden memories. LOL

Re: Give Madden a whole new look.

I would love it if they went to highlight style menu. I think it was NCAA 07 last gen, where they had highlights playing of your favourite team in the back ground.

Another thing, I wish they would allow you to choose "All NFL" as your favourite team like last gen.

Re: Give Madden a whole new look.

I would prefer to look at my favorite team, instead of Fitzgerald and Polamalu.

Madden memories? Um, don't you mean Saturday mornings? Nothing sounded sweeter than waking up this song and tuning in to College Gameday. I would give ANYTHING for ESPN to bring this back in favor the God-awful "Coming to Your City". I am SO sick of that.

Anyway, on-topic, I personally think that this year's menus are the best ever for Madden. The look and presentation of this year's game are top-notch. Some of the best I've seen for any sports game, IMHO. Oh, and the soundtrack is great this year.
