This stream "sold me".

I saw so many things that I liked.

I think things are really heading in the right direction. The game looks fun. Thanks for the stream guys!

Twitch doesn't like to cooperate with my computer, so I'll just have to take everyone's word that this game looks much improved. The last Madden I spent significant time with was M10, and I'm hoping that this edition will get me back on board. It's rare that I see this section of the site so positive. Hopefully that's a good sign.

Does this work better?

It's the gameplay portion of the stream, which was probably a little over half of the whole thing. Starts in practice mode but has full gameplay later (up to halftime)

Much better. Thanks a lot. A lot of times when I try to watch Twitch videos on my PC it buffers like crazy for some reason.

Came here to criticize, watched the video, ended up preordering M15.


Impressive, to say the least.

I really like this Madden team! More than any other in the game's history. These guys just seem to get it.

That being said, Donny Moore is another story. We've seen it with the FBG ratings, that when entered, drastically improve the game play. Not sure why EA hasn't acknowledged this.

Arcade "esque" ratings give Arcade "esque" game play

Thank you I missed this yesterday.

I love how Rex admitted that everything's not perfect and some aspects of the game (WR/DB interaction) are still far from what they should be, but they're working on it.

What did you guys think of the 2-5 man tackles? I know they aren't where we want them but like Rex said and Sim said at E3, they're building towards true gang tackling.

This is why I do not see 1 year being a fair assesment.

Consider the Sim quality their other sports titles are pushing and the fan fare those games are gaining. If Rex and Co. are given 2-3 more years to develop what FIFA and NHL have: I am not so sure the slope will rise but there will always be a peak so hopfeully they know their baseline & learn to play hard within their baseline and ballpark and not swing for the fences in a league they are not built for.

If Madden can continue in this course I can see them finally being branded w the phrase "if you love Football: this is the game for you!" - as JP might say

There are tonnes of folks who are not soccer fans but who watch the World Cup for the spectacle - Madden can create that same sensational buzz if they stay the course.

There are other games who have reached that fulfilment in their genres and I can picture Rex's crew reaching that pinnacle if they are given more time to develop that world cup product: just as the NFL Commisioner is trying to expand the NFL overseas.

It will be more telling to see how this title rates out on Metacritic and via other media outlets than via sales, in my consumer opinion.

That's a big IF you are putting out there.

Let's not forget that EA told Ian and company to go in another direction from 10 to 11, fair or not.

Nothing much for me to add to what everyone else has said. I mentioned just recently before the stream that 15 looked like as big as jump that 10 did.

Plus, I've been in Rex's corner since last November's interview with Clint and Rich Grisom. His interviews since then have been on point with candor and straight to the point.

I really liked a lot of what I saw there. I also liked hearing that one of these guys actually lost a game to the CPU on All Pro. Very promising, I don't think I've ever lost a game to the CPU on All Pro with out going into the slider adjustments.

I hope they do a video with a couple of the lower rated Qb's in the league, I'd like to get a look at some off target passes and see if the INt's go up with the lower rated guys.

For the first time, since what '05??, defense is actually going to matter in Madden. I was very impressed by what I saw. I haven't played Madden for the past 2 years because it had actually become boring and stale. Defense was just a word and you really didn't shut down/stop an offense, the offense stopped itself.

This year defense is going to matter and you will be able to some degree take things away from the offense and possibly force their hand.

The one question I have, and sorry if its been answered already, but are individual coverage assignments back in Madden? Ex: Making sure Richard Sherman covers Michael Crabtree no matter where he lines up on the field?

I saw lot of great things in the live stream. The Von Miller spin move on DJ Fluker was cool. Miller just missed Rivers for the sacks. It was a great play that looked so realistic.
