Great gameplay cannot. Fifa can actually trot out their wares with tons of interviews (which they are already doing) about various gameplay improvements, because they have great game. Wins award after award. Madden is closer to NBA Live/Elite in my book. They have to prove themselves all over again. So I'm looking with "Missouri eyes" at Madden. I get the marketing angle. But they need to show. My main games are Fifa and NBA2k. They, long with "The Show" are the best sports games out there. Madden isn't as good as them. And one could make an argument that even PES is better. Madden can't just try to be better than NCAA anymore and call it a day. I might get called the "trailer police" or whatever. But I play, and have played, a ton of sports games in my 47 years. I'm just stating my simple opinion. That trailer did nothing to change my attitude about Madden being a second rate sports game. They have a ton of work to make me want to buy a console again, just to play their game. My point, in a nutshell......

I get that. I do, but my only thing is people are ragging Madden for this trailer not showing pretty much every card they hold. Which everyone should know thats not how it works. We cant bash them about gameplay yet when we have no idea if they have an Ace in hand there. We should only be commenting on the trailer,and at least for me, I was pleased with it. Doesnt mean I dont want to know about the rest or have skeptism. It's OK to praise the trailer, it doesnt mean you dont know the game has been underwhelming in the past and needs to step up.

If thats what you get out of this, then I guess 2k14 for next gen has no confidence in any animation cuz they showed next to nothing. And before you go crazy, i know 2k has been great in the past. Im just saying you guys are completely using double standards. We all know you all love to complain about madden, its the cool thing to do around here. but you guys are REACHING. Let the info come out first.

the current game runs pretty good as it is. i hope aside from the graphical improvements like a more active sideline. where the players are not ghosts. i would like faster load times to the game. smoother transitions to the tackle animations. also(will never happen)replace Phil Simms with a far less annoying commentator.

Im 29 and have played and owned every single madden since 93. I see running and close ups,I see one juke by Johnson and its pretty standard in the NFL you see it every sunday. What would my age even mean? you still havent answered my question.

Am I the only one who feels this footage was a level lower than what we saw in the AP promo?

Graphically AND player motion and animation wise.

I've held off of Madden for NG....but I am underwhelmed so at this point.

Hey bottom line EA Suck!, You guys can continue to defend this crap!! all you want but it's 2013 not 1999.

The football I watch on Sunday looks nothing like anything EA has ever made ....PERIOD!!

Maybe they should do Tech Mo Bowl or NBA JAM, unrealistic games

Go and rent All PRO 2K8 ... made in 2007 and play that game and after, we can come back to your question later

Look up where Fifa, which releases same day and date, is on their marketing. Had a fully playable next gen build back in August in Germany. David Rutter is in full swing with every major mag and gaming site. Has already laid out how the new tech will help with AI, about player avoidance and smarter marking and runs. How now they can have multiple players go up into headers. As well, as the living worlds, etc. Seems Tiburon isn't quite as confident in their product. They aren't hyping for launch. They are trying to build holiday sales. Trying to milk this whole deal out. I stand by my red letters. A great game doesn't need super marketing hype. It sells itself......
