    Mine is the improved presentation, and the direction it's heading in. Goes a long way to sustaining immersion.

      Most interested in trying out the new difficulty they've been touting, saying that even All Pro will be tough for the best players. I'm tired of going 15-1 every year with a middle of the pack team in my CFM.

      I also really like the Game Prep addition. I just hope everything turns out the way they've been saying it should....

        i'd have to play a demo to see whats changed. Madden has been lackluster for a few years now even in its next gen debut. I'm excited about football season and hope i can play madden alongside the season and feel immersed in a football experience.

          I'm actually not excited for Madden this year, at all. First time in a long time. I'm just not feeling it. They didn't make any of the changes that needed to be made to franchise or the actual game play itself. Its just more new fluff and its going to be the same broken game underneath. Still going to buy it, but just not excited it for it.

            i agree with some of you sayin that pass accuracy must be toned down, and diversified pending on what QB u are using. i REALLY hope this year we will actually see a difference between using Brady or Gabbert. so long i haven't seen , in videos, strwaming ecc.., anything that confirms this intent on making every qb feel unique.

            other than that, i really look forward to experience an off season in franchise mode; this part of the franchises was always dumb, signing FA's was a mx of luck/guessing game.

            last but not least, i like very, very, veeery much, that they are looking to semplify things (MUT menus...FA signin) without taking away things from the previous years.

            IF they are able to accomplish what they promised, Madden 15 could start to scratch the surface and bring down the wall that keeps the EA title away from the contention of best sport game every year

                  You need to get current on the news. Franchise has had a lot of changes this year and some are pretty big such as random drafts.

                    Well, that's sound logic.

                    For me, it's by far the pass inaccuracies. If they work as they're advertised, it should open up the variety in the pass game a ton. Fingers are crossed because the videos I've seen haven't showcased it too much.

                      i just dont understand the logic here, madden has had awful gameplay for a while now. i could care less about presentation no matter how good it is if the gameplay is terrible

                        I completely disagree. Madden 25 on next gen has awesome gameplay, best I've ever seen in a game. Yes you get a wonky play now and then but overall it plays a great game of pigskin.

                          would you consider yourself a simulation player? gameplay might be good if you like to cheese

                            Yeah I'm a sim player but I'm not crazy anal and over analyzing sim players like some folks on OS. And yes I'm aware players can still cheese and exploit the game online. However, as a long time gamer I realize that so long as people are given a game they will find ways to break it. So with that in mind I either play people I know or go online and don't get upset if I get some idiot and just roll with it.

                            And with that being said, EA has done a good amount of work on improving some of the cheesier aspects of the game such as running backwards 40 yards and throwing across your body 50 yards while you are facing backwards.

                            So yeah I'm sim but I'm also a realist and since I play a lot of games I know whenever you give people a game there will be people who do their best to find ways to cheat and break the game. That will never change and EA, for the most part, shouldn't take the blame for idiots who choose to abuse the game and play it in an unrealistic manner.

                              i see what your saying but in my opinion, its the gameplay that allows them to cheese. if the game was more realistic the cheese wouldnt be as bad. there is absolutely no footplanting in next gen madden at all. sliding and ice skating galore. defensive players are stupid as hell. no one knows how to set the edge
