Wow, very impressed with the Bills intro. Everything is correct even down to the M&T Bank logo it's the very same logo as in real life in the same exact spot. Well done EA!!

Surprised to see the entire set of renovations in the game with really good accuracy. Apart from the outdated stadium wall designs, which I'm willing to give them a pass on, I'm VERY happy they included all the changes.

This made me cringe a bit. It's tough for a team to select aQB in the top 5 in back to back years. Granted the 2nd qb could be a once in a lifetime prospect but I'm guessing poor CPU logic is still in the game.

Yeah, I'm concerned that poor CPU logic is still to blame, but without knowing all the facts I'm holding out hope!

Could be a number of factors at play, coach could have been fired which meant a change in strategy and they needed a new QB to fit their scheme. Bortles could have had a horrible season and his confidence dropped enough to lower his OVR to the point they felt they needed a new QB. I am not defending the logic with any of these posts, I am just saying we can't make judgments without knowing the full story.

Same here. But I've been saying for a while, PS4 Madden hopefully get's back to that. And they're going in the right direction.

I agree it can be a ton of factors that resulted in selecting a QB in the top 5 back to back years. But I've seen this so many times in madden, I just have the feeling it's the same old CPU logic (or lack of). Trust me, I hope I'm wrong

I am enjoying the videos from a game play perspective

Jags vs Texans, still one handed magnet catches for onside kick recoveries.

I haven't watched all the videos yet, but has any noticed the CPU play calling at the end of the half.? Thanks.

I've liked what I've seen so far. Things that stuck out to me was the Gauntlet mode and the passing inaccuracies. I'm trying to hold out on that EA Access, not sure how long that'll last with these videos, I'm ready for this release.

That sucks. Personally I dislike how they essentially took out onside kicks (meaning how often do you recover them? MAYBE 5% of the time)? And also blocking FG's. It's improbable nowadays but not impossible. And for Madden since like 04/05, it's IMPOSSIBLE. (At least I haven't done it in 10 years).

In one of the games the Patriots actually used their timeouts at the end of the half.

They just had to make romo throw a pick on the first pass of the game in the 1st quarter of redskins vs cowboys smh

If it were truly realistic it would have been in a 4th quarter drive. The Dev team still has some work to do.

Incredibly on M12 blocked FG's were possible and it was nerfed on the first patch. It was a tad over powering from the edge and then they just shut it down all together.

It sucks it is impossible. I have not seen them in like forever. I too know it is so rare...but it does happen. Especially on the longer low trajectory FG attempts. And blocked punts do still happen from time to time as well.

Re: Madden NFL 15 Gameplay Videos - Day 1

Man, I am pumped.

1 - Glad the XB1 version looks to be really close to the PS4 version

2 - I love the new perspective from the zoom cam.

3 - Gameplay looks really solid

Sadly, I won't be able to take advantage of Early Access since I will be on vacation next week. Can't wait for early impressions, though.

Blocked punts are also something non existent in Madden anymore.
