Madden NFL 13 on Vita is Essentially Madden NFL 12.5 with Screenshots (Polygon)

As far as understanding programming... if you've at all been around this site, you'll know that I've done more than my fair share of defending Madden. Cutting back in areas is understandable, but to leave out things like referees, nets, and sidelines is ridiculous. We didn't go through this on any previous generations of hardware until EA became the sole football developer, now suddenly it's ok for first time efforts to leave out things that have been in these games since the SNES.

You have every right to feel the way you do, but the three things you mentioned just mean noting to me for a game on a handheld. Im cool with a Madden 12.5 version. Its not costing $60, and it has things that will be missed on Madden 13.

I will get it. It will be a great game to play on te subway when im heading to work, or when Im heading back home.

The more I hear....the more I'm leaning toward getting this. The new passing trajectories should eliminate the thing I hated most in 12 which was the super LBs.

So...the game won't be able to do the whole point of what vita's selling point was, though, correct? Play your game on vita...pick it up on console...have to go, pick it back up on vita..? This is odd.

Just read the stuff about how they didn't even decide to the the Infinity Engine on the console version until this January. That's lame. That's why they ran out of time. It was never in their original plans to have it in the game apparently.

Do you know if there is going to be a gameplay video soon?

You aren't afraid to play your PSVita on the subway? I would be afraid of someone robbing me if they seen me playing that on the subway.

if the vita excludes the connected careers in favor of editing players/rosters/playbooks/drafts and having 32 team control then I'm in favor as long as the graphics are respectable

lol not at all. I pull it out to play the show at times, but playing a baseball game on the subway is tough when the train is rocking . It messes up my vision for hitting the ball.

I play uncharted also. Fun game for sure. Right now im waiting for something else and Madden would be perfect.

The subways arent that bad as some may think. It's like anywhere in this world. Certain times and areas it is fine, and other times and certain areas it is not.

The subway now is filled with people with all types of gadgets. It is very comon trend right now. Most robberies on the train take place amongt the school kids robbing eachother. It really doesn't involve adults.
