http://www.1up.com/do/newsStory?cId=3166155 So lame. Madden has been so bad and unrealistic on next gen systems. Now there will be once again zero competition. The whole game is crap in my opinion. Graphics are so so. Gameplay is crap. Players movement is just bad. The offensive and defensive lines look horrible. The pass rush is unrealistic. We are still missing features that were on last gen systems. Plus still no online leagues. Bring on Backbreaker. A game that will not have the same animations over and over.
Backbreaker wont be a game from what I understand. It's just an engine for someone like EA to snatch up.
i probably wont be buying next year's madden thanks to them treating the ps3 like the red headed step child. the online experience is horrible. the game runs at 30 FPS rather than 60 despite the ps3 having better hardware. and the player weapon system, while a good concept, needs to be toned down big time so some players are not physically unstopable(brady and moss)
I guess I'll be passing up Football games for a while. EA hasn't proven in 3 years that they deserve my money.
A lack of competition is bad. Quite bad. If not for the extra pressure for good ideas, but for ideas stolen from other games and incorporated into your product next year 'oh yeah, we have that too now'. Assimilating the competition is never good... WWE took a nosedive shortly after eating everyone else up.
