Along with that I would chalk some of it up to inexperience with player control and breaking out of animations/tackles as well as we may be seeing more impact from player ratings than in the past (which would be a positive).

Thats great news. And I think that with the new player control and breaking out of tackles animations, Madden is going to have a slight learning curve this year. Thank goodness for pre-season games.

Amen... I am just hoping for a Franchise Mode to work out of the box... that would make me happy...

Things sound promising so far.

I'll take Pasta's opinion with a grain of salt. He continues to play NBA Live.
That's either loyalty or or a strange fetish.



The video clips were not promising.

1. The breaking of two tackles and the long run after the short catch was the same old Madden.

2. A 52 yard field goal into a 12 mile per hour wind and it's good.

I thought they fixed the kicking game.

so because he likes and plays NBA Live, his opinions are not valid?

Actually yes, liking NBA Live nowadays makes your credibility vanish. I'm sorry I hate Live like some of these cats over here hate Madden.

Also, Pasta told us after Community Days last year that presentation would be stepped up and radio guy gone.

OK.....

I'm glad that I don't play basketball games. Because if for some reason I liked Live, and given the fact that I like Madden and NCAA, I probably wouldn't be allowed on these forums.

Be thankful everyday you weren't subjected to any next gen NBA Live's cb, lmao. Im sorry I'm an admitted Live *****, that's why you'll hardly ever catch me in those forums. Some people should take that approach over here .
