Madden NFL 13 Videos - ESPN Mark Schlereth Talks Presentation and Gameplay

[Tengo Juego]

The scoreboard would be so much better if it was the actual CBS scoreboard, and not the "inspired" blue bar they've gone with.





It looks a lot like the Madden 11 Wii scoreboard, actually.



A revised M12 scoreboard would have been better.

I think there is some positives to be seen with these videos.

It looks as if they're implementing some sort of partial physic engine, finger crossed. Some of the tackles do show limbs spreading and moving after impact. I want to be excited about Madden. But it's too early to be disappointed and excited about this game.

We need to realize this EA's last year with the NFL license, so they had to step it up. Hopefully Mr. Cam Weber is whipping them in shape over at Tiburon and change their mentality, because this generation of Madden has been awful. I'm not a 2K fanatic, but the healthiest thing for any industry is competition. Competition forces your best effort every year.

One thing I do like that Cam has done is doubled the size of the gameplay team

The problem is that you're very, very, very aware it's a video game the entire time you're playing. It's probably cuz the very nature of football makes it so or something, but I never have moments when I'm fully in the game like I am with a particular baseball game or at times with a specific basketball game. Especially in terms of presentation.

Madden gets better each year...but the whole make and engine of the game won't allow for that total immersion. Maybe next gen.

For now? Eh. Not too shabby, I suppose.

Maybe not completely, but I think you will this year more than ever. I really think they are going all out with the commentary and in game presentation, which is huge in terms of immersion. I guess we will see come August, but I expect to see many people impressed by what they did.

I really hope with the Audio Playbook coming soon has something about revamped crowd noise. I want the crowd to be LOUD. It isn't bad in M12 but I want to hear lots of spots where the crowd just goes crazy. I've always wanted them to bring back the camera shake and controller rumble when you're playing on the road too.

If you watch at about 1:57 in the first video the coin flip is still messed up, it said heads or tails before the official even threw the coin in the air.
