This drives be crazy! For years EA has talked about how you can now branch out of tackle animations, but all the time you get those animations when AI knows that you are going down 100% of the time and they stop. Like the one where you're stumbling and the defense just starts backing away from the ballcarrier or the one where one defender spins you around. Many of the animations look like you could breakout of them in real life too.

I understand, but, I didn't realize that 15 would be the first true next gen title, 15 is basically turning out to be what I thought/ was led to believe, that 25 would be. 25 ended up being a port, so I'm giving them one more year to deliver that title we've been wanting. With that being said, I have a feeling once 15 drops many of you will be pleasantly surprised once you actually play it. Read the gameplay impressions article from drifter bub of tradition sports, he couldn't stand 25 and was pretty impressed with 15 in many ways. I look forward to reading what many of you have to say once you actually play the game and aren't just watching a YouTube video of an alpha build game. There were quite a few people who said some pretty harsh things about 25 next gen and once they played it, actually enjoyed it, I expect that number to be even higher this time.

Bottom line, 16 is the third year of the 3 year plan and I expect nothing less than excellence and there's no excuses for anything less.

Oh and as far as past conclusions, show me a team with the leadership and vision supporting sim football from 2006 until Cam Weber came. This team inherited a mess of a game, it's their job to fix the last 7 years of garbage, does anyone here realistically think thats possible in 1-2 years? When has a game that has so many issues and problems, gone from poor to phenomenal in that amount of time? Now just watch, in the next year or two what happens, greatness is around the corner. Madden was always a AAA title before 2006, so lets not pretend that greatness is beyond the Madden name.

i cant do it anymore....i only made it 3 minutes into that video before having to turn it off....i wasted 3 minutes of my life to find out what i already knew...this is the same trash madden since 07.....player movement is scripted and unrealistic.....ball physics are atrocious. players move to fast for the movements they are making...nothing about it looks for feels improved or realistic in what we should have if you compare it to what 2k15..mlb the show. ....the game looks pretty....ill give it that.....but this is the 7th year in a row they havent listened to the fans and gave us what we want...what a bunch of bull.

Why do you keep saying this? Just because you believe it doesn't make it a fact! We have factual information. Look at the quotes and links provided earlier. It's a FACT, regardless of what you believe, that the last three year plan started with Madden 12!
