My biggest gripe is honesty the kick meter. I can see me losing games on missed long field goals late because of how laggy and unresponsive it is.

360...it NEVER starts when you push down the first time. Then on the way up you have to hit it way early to get full power, and that is hit or miss...

Gotcha...
I know you have to hit it a little early to finish but the start didn't seem bad. I haven't missed one yet as after getting the timing down on the up move it was ok.

Yea I thought I got that part down, but now for some reason I have to hit down like 5 times before it starts and by that time I'm so f'd up and frustrated, hitting up is always off. Idk maybe it's me, or my controller

Yeah that may be a controller thing as I haven't had that issue (Thankfully!)

I haven't actually missed one yet, but my kick offs and punts are junk because of it, I can foresee long fg's being a problem if it stays the same. BUT I have one of those silver controllers and it's been wonky before, maybe it's that

Apparently the graphics aren't as I've read 3 other posts of people saying the same thing, although its possible that's a TV/Madden thing because I popped in M12 and it looked much better. "Arcade-y" isn't a go to at all, the game felt really fast, hence more like an arcade game rather than a sim. So maybe I need to adjust some settings. I'm concerned about how easy passing is, but hopefully that can be tuned up. As for the rest of it, I agree M13 is a clear improvement over M12. Ultimately, in my view, its lipstick on a pig. And I dunno, again maybe just me, but I found M13 boring because of how similar it was to M12. There are clear improvements, but at the end of the day I'm making exactly the same decisions on offence and defence as in M12.

Well maybe you're tired of playing football because your last sentence made no sense. Of course you're making the same decisions because they're both football games.
