Has your opinion of Madden 25 changed after the demo?

[dat swag]

Hate the camera angle and the game is nothing special...I'll be sitting current gen out and will wait on Next gen.

My thought hasn't changed.

I knew those praising the game as the next best thing and that things would be different "with this team" were just feeding the buzz. Always good entertainment though.

I still love all those people telling us to just wait, this year would be the year.



No, I went from not interested, not excited to feeling exactly the same.

Remember though....next gen is going to be the "cats meow" now...lol.

This installment was only going to be "minimal improvements" anyway ...

C'mon Kehlis,you know better than that...lmao

Since this is just a polished version of M13, I expect the people who enjoyed 13 will love M25 and the people who disliked M13 will either not buy or wait til next gen.


I LOVED THE DEMO!

[Big FN Deal]

I have gone without a football game since Oct of last year after trading M13 in, so I would have expected to be really thirsty for some football. However I find myself numb to the demo and EA football period at this point. I can't deny the game play is improved but nothing about the demo excites me, I'm fed up with them providing a complete football experience taking so long.

I guess to answer the op, no my opinion hasn't changed, for all the improvements and there are improvements, it still is what it is.

Also to anyone that was the demo, that has analyzed it in depth, is there any differential in the way players perform? I don't just mean RBs with the precision modifier but for all positions. For example has anyone noticed lower rated players, other than SPD, play any different than higher rated players?

My concern is that separation on pass plays is based on the route more than the route runner. I like the way far more passes can be broken up by arriving when the ball does than in previous Maddens but the separation possible and passing game as a whole is far too easy, imo. I get the impression Tiburon is timid about making the passing game more challenging which is unfortunate. I can picture every team in the game being able to freely move the ball through the air in M25, due to a number of reasons.

I probably played Atleast 20 games today on the Demo.

It was obviously good to me. I can't wait for the retail copy.

What were your thoughts on M13? I'm trying to see if my theory is holding...

[Step2001]

The info I need is in CCF, for that, will have to wait until retail version drops. Demo is a polished version of 13, I'm still playing 13.
A good set of sliders is key..........The A.I. will be tough on All Madden.

Will still wait it out, as I expect at least two patches and some tuner updates. Price will fall when Next Gen drops or Holiday deals.

'13 will hold me over till then.....
