Madden NFL 15 Trailer - See The Transformation This June, Releases on August 26th

That is a nice shot of one player not moving. How will it look with 22 all moving? I literally have no expectations for Madden. The bar in terms of gameplay that resembles football is non-existent. I'm not going to sit here and say I'm not getting the game unless ______ because its not true. I have skipped one Madden title since they got the exclusive deal, Madden 11. The only reason I still play the game is because I enjoy competing with similar minded people so I play in Online CFMs. So even if this game is a complete disaster as long as I can find 31 people who want to play in a CFM I will probably buy the game. Its a sad state of customer expectations, but at this point with this game it is what it is.

They have no choice but to get better. No choice

Agreed. I'll go even further and say, as wildly popular as the NFL is in North America, I'd think it would be doing about half of GTA's sales. But at present, it's not even doing half of GTA's North American sales, and not long ago it was doing more than half of that.

Exactly what set of circumstances or information do you have that would embolden you to make such a statement as this? I'm not being snarky, at least not completely, I'd really like to know.

I would say the opposite. They have no reason to get better, because people will buy it anyway.

Wow.

You realize YOURE the problem, right?

Not just you...but everyone who just blindly buys the game even though they clearly dont like it?

Even if the game is a disaster, youll buy it?

Not sure whats worse...that youre willing to waste money on a game you dont like, or supporting a products mediocrity?

You and everyone who thinks this way is just as responsible as EA for the state of Madden.

Yes, I am the problem. Because the year I didn't purchase the game there were wholesale improvements. Madden is entertainment not football. I find enjoyment out of playing in an online CFM.

No if the game is a disaster I won't buy it, but tell me when was the last time madden was a "disaster"? Its not a perfect game, and I am on here and other places voicing my displeasure with parts of the gmae I don't enjoy.

But I'm past the point of being naive enough to think that skipping the game will do any good. If every member of OS were to skip out on Madden 15, if the game got a 87 on Metacritic EA would be ecstatic even if they sold 10,000 less units, because at the end of the day, they are gonna get their money and they are the only NFL game intown. IF there were another game that was more of a simulation I would spend my money on that.

No my friend I am not the problem, the problem is years and years of the game being all about the WOW and never about the Xs and Os.

I'm right there with you, man.


I buy the game every year. I play it for a few months, I have my fun but eventually the Wow factor wears off and I realize that I'm not playing a simulation football game.
