madden has taken a great step towards becoming a sim game.

just a few questions for the community, does it piss anyone else off that the opponent can see your previous play. this is particularly frustrating for me me because i don't use a lot of lays on defense compared to offense where i only try to use a play once a game

Really love the way this game plays. The graphics are sick and the game play is slick. Way to go EA!

I think the tackling is better this year. I see some big hits but not like years past where every hit was a wwe tackle. I think the reason most aren't seeing any big hits is because you're using the conservative tackle A button when it shows up on the screen. Once in awhile I hit X and the players try to lay the big hit. Some with success and some whiffs.

just played another game this time on 12 minute quarters 0 acc clock


it was Vikings(cpu) vs browns(me)


neither team could do much it was 7-6 after the first I missed the xtra point... then in sec both teams traded fg's back and forth was 13-12 at half.


we got ball in second half we score a td in 3rd go up 20-13 we went for 2... second half was a bad for the Viking they lost AP to a broken jaw... then few plays later cassel went down grabbing his back... so enter bridgewater... he lasted until the mid of 4th quarter and he went out injuried so ponder had to come in and finish the game.


the 4th quarter we took over with all injuries the Vikings just couldn't get a passing or running game going they got a fg but we scored 24 in 4th to win 44-16.


Manziel threw the ball 47 times... completed 28 threw 3 td's 2 ints... but also had 7 rushes for 60 yards 1 td. the play that broke game wide open was a nice roll out pa pass that manziel found Gordon behind the Vikings defenders that he took to house.


so far I like how this game plays it seems like every game has been nail biters I can't see how ppl are saying this game is junk its an amazing game.

The last paragraph hits it on the head for me. All of my games have been hard fought close games. I won one game by 3 scores but I broke away late. Every other game I feel like I gave to play perfect or hold on to get the win.

It could be me still getting used to it. I'm guessing in a few weeks I'll have to adjust sliders to make it more challenging. But for now I actually feel good starting my CFM 3-0. I'm already thinking how will I beat the broncos if I've barely beat the dolphins, vikings and raiders.

we'll EA said the footwork etc were useless and never worked that's why they got removed far as other 2 they put those in the players ratings at the bottom.

Played a game against Rg3 and he ran! That was so cool to see him running. I am really digging this game the more I play it!
