OS Fact or Fiction: Is Madden for Real This Time?

Fiction. Wait until 2013. If people think that nobody is brainstorming ideas, planning another football game out, you got things twisted.

When said company makes another NFL game, they will take notes on where EA/Tiburon failed and will make the game that much better.

Heed my words. EA/Tiburon has been duping the customer for years. Their days are almost over.

While I share your belief that competition will eventually be back for NFL gaming, I don't think that can officially happen until after the Super Bowl in February 2014.

all I got to say is I can't wait regardless. I'm sick of EA doing what they want to do and not listen to the customers. They know a majority of people will still buy into the game because they're hooked like crack addicts.

I'm one of them, but I chose not to buy retail but 2nd hand. They don't like that.

Fiction, even though this is their best effort yet this gen. A game that's "for real" wouldn't ignore basic, fundamental elements of football for 8 years.

They stepped up to the plate 7 times and struck out all 7, never even making contact and looking pretty pathetic doing it. This year they hit a solid single up the middle, woo-hoo!!

Other football games and other sports games have been hitting doubles, triples, and homers for many years now. At least they got a single this year.

It's like the kid at the end of the bench and when he finally gets a hit everyone is excited for him. Except this "kid" has millions of "parents" who think their kid is the best player ever, even when he was striking out, unconditional love.

All the same congratulations on the single, it's over a week and I haven't shelved the game.

Fiction:


1. No ability to edit ANYTHING was an automatic game killer for me. I mean I spent hours over the years juts simply editing things to get the game as close to real life as possible and now I have to trust EA's roster? LMAO. Thats why I did my own in the first place..lol.

2. The infinity engine is a gimmick. Who cares if a LB hits a running back and he does the helicopter when the WR/DB interactions laughable, the CCM stats are a joke and BASIC things like having equipment and jerseys right are messed up.

3. The infinity engine is even more of a gimmick especially after the play when you got people falling over people like idiots. I thought I was watching The Walking Dead half the time.

4. If EA was going to take the ability to edit away then their roster should be 100% PERIOD. Anything less is unacceptable since we cant do it ourselves.

5. There is NO EXCUSE for a simple offline franchise mode to be in this game. NONE. Goodness I mean a simple offline franchise mode with no BS attached where you can edit and do whatever you want. You know like back on the PS2.


I could go on and on and on but its 2 in the morning.

FICTION!
