Now that's what I like to hear. But how many minute quarters were you playing? And were you doing an online or offline CFM?

15 min. quarters, Play Now.
Brady threw 4 long balls down the field and only one of them was successful. Jennings, and Tillman showed their ratings.

Reading thru these impressions, seems the Madden honeymoon is over quicker than Chris Humphries' marriage to Kardashian. Lol

I disagree. I haven't played a Madden game this long since madden 08 on the PC at least.

One thing I am noticing more than the past the cpu really targets their big time receivers more than they have in the past.
No more WR4 having 10 receptions just because he was in the slot.

Played the Saints the other day and I couldn't deal with Graham and Colston.

Tell me something. Tell me why we do not have in-depth roster creation. Why do we not have the ability to have practice squad and injured reserve, and have the ability to import and export players from those rosters at will? How is it year after year they have time to work on the graphics, and add these funky physics which they call physics, yet do not have the time or the ability to add in debt roster creation?

Why is it that we are dealing with the same crap that we've dealt with for the last 10 releases of madden?

With a good patch this game is going to go down as the GOAT in video game football.


It's that good.

Damn. You're entitled to your opinion, but damn.......

Damn. You're entitled to your opinion, but damn.......

Seriously......it is IMO the best video game representation of the game on the field I have ever played. It's a strong statement, but for me it really feels great.

It's time to put that other game to rest....it's age is showing big time now when you fire this game up.

Madden 15 is not perfect by any stretch, and it still has some annoying legacy issues. The physics still have some wonky moment's, the play by play is not where it needs to be, but the camera angles, stat swipes, commerical/timeout/injury break aways, pre-game and halftime (finally) are a great start for this gen to build off of.

Gameplay wise....it's more organic than any football game before it...and that point is not close for me.

AI wise.....far better. Perfect? No? But a great foundation to build from. Think about it this way too. Last gen it took them till M25 (imo of course) to make a really deep and rich football game. I was never satisfied with any previous Madden last gen till M25....not once.

Here we are and their first real attempt (M25 was a port last year) on the PS4/One and they really made a fun, immersive and challenging game of virtual football.

The game is what you want to make it. I am not looking for flaws. I am looking to have fun and have a deep franchise. I know CFM has it's detractors...but I actually love it. Far better than franchise ever was last gen. And far better than the others games buggy as hell and cumbersome franchise mode. That never get's talked about either BTW, the AI back then was inferior, budgets, contracts...it sucked. Huge improvement now from previous gens in regards to depth.

Presentation is really getting there too.

Hey everyone has their own opinions. No one is right or wrong. But I am really really happy with this game and like I said...a good patch and this game goes to another level.

With the right patches it could be the best Madden. On field? Nah, it still hasn't touched APF. Too many poor, broken, or missing elements. I respect your opinion though. Appreciate the response.

I can respect APF being considered the best on the field. It is a very good game of football. Can't deny that.

I am some what Madden biased though...I will admit that as I have been a hardcore Madden player/fan for 26 years now. So when they get things right...I do get a little excited and have some passion about it LOL.

No problem totally respect that. The honesty about having a bias is refreshing, especially in this forum. #salute

I love how Don Muhlbach made the Lions roster as a LS but I can't play him at LS because reasons.

Re: Madden NFL 15 Available Now, Post Your Impressions Here (XB1/PS4)

I love that INT attempts count as Pass Deflection. In the past only the pass deflection animations did.

APF is my all time favorite football game but I am not sure this is totally true. Last time i played it it had started to show its age. I get the sentimentality for 2k games I do, but would I rather play APF over Madden 15 at this point? For the first time the answer is no.

Been saying for years there needs to be a LS rating.

to this day i still play apf, and i have madden 2015. madden to this day still does not touch the on the field game play of apf in my opinion! in apf anything can happen! i have seen blocked punts, i have seen blocked fg, i have seen the ball snapped over the punters head!! ol/dl interaction still way better in apf. cb/db interaction still better in apf. zone coverage and man coverage is better in apf. commentary way better in apf. did i mention gang tackling in apf is way better! so in the end i summarize that apf still plays a better game of football then madden. and the game is going on 8 years old, we should not even have to debate on what football game is better when one of them is almost a decade old.. now i do believe madden is getting better and this is the best madden!! but in my opinion its no where near the best on the field game of football. to me that crown still goes to apf! and why i will still be playing it.... and you know those things called penalties they are called in apf! like pass interference.. so many years have gone by and were still waiting for penalties to work in madden..
