Madden NFL 13 Gameplay and Presentation Trailer

[PVarck31]

I really liked what I saw with the exception of one thing. There is still too much sliding going on. I hope they can tune it up a little before August. However, I don't expect anything earth shattering. I think its pretty much a forgone conclusion that this issue will not be totally fixed until next-gen. (if then) So its pretty much live with it, or don't.

What I did like was the new pass trajectories. This is something I hammered home in a piece I did for OS a few months ago. I think this can be a real game changer.

I also really liked the new catch animations. I think they will bring a lot to making the gameplay less repetitive.

I also saw some nice foot planting animations. Maybe not much in this trailer, but in the live broadcast they did. Receivers didn't cut on a dime and neither did the defenders.

I am sure there will still be legacy issues. I know they said they are working on line play. I will pretty much take anything I can get from that. lol

I really think this could be a great year for Madden and NCAA.

Come on bro! Yo know EA is known for having just 2-3 cutscene anyway.Your idea of having them be seen more I do agree with.It wont happen though.Lets just prey they talk about teams around the league.

I like the improvement they are making in the presentation aspects--they have struggled for so long and I honestly don't understand why. But the game itself looks fairly bad to me and I can't quite put my finger on it. To me the graphics actually look worse in most of shots. The animations and sliding look horrendous.

Maybe my eyes are playing tricks on me. I'm not sure. I'll reserve judgment until say June or July. Haven't purchased Madden since '10 so one of these years it has to be worth it (or not?).

I didnt mean what I said 2 be bad just a suggestion

Loving the new presentation elements. Still alot of feet sliding around, but I can live with that as long as the game plays good.

Agree 100%

It almost looked worst then last year.. I just don't get it?? As far as some of the new presentation additions which are nice to see, gameplay is just not very good.. It's just plain disappointing if you ask me.. wow..

Still look like they are sliding. I can handle that if everything else works perfectly.
