Even so? Even IF they add all those features...what does it help if the gameplay is terrible?

I enjoyed all those features back on 05 and 06...but the gameplay backed it up completely. Madden 13 was the first Madden I sold after 2 weeks...why, it had terrible bugs. Touchdown catches that was clearly out of bounds etc.

I want all those features you mentioned...but let's look first if EA add them and expand on the versions they had for the ps2 games. Relocating means nothing to me if they force me to change the logo and uniforms...what are the chances that they changed that?

By this gameplay trailer....man, it's the first impression trailer...but this leaves nothing but a bad impression. Where is the supposedly "run free" improvements...and what is run free...the name sounds gimmicky to me. Does anyone know what it is suppose to do?

I checked out EA's site a little more carefully and found (a few clicks in) some actual details. The page says these were posted on the 23rd, but I haven't noticed any links on OS yet.

Edit: It sounds good and all...but it doesn't fix what is wrong with Madden

Lol..free run. Can u show us a trailer EA of free blocking, where u have double a team pass blocking...please!!! It's only something the community been asking for 8 years now.

run free sounds great and the new moves do too, but the problem i have with maddens current avoidance system i guess its called is the break tackle animations take for ever to play out. every running back truck seems to take forever to finish so by the time the guy you trucked is on the ground, youre already tackled. if it still takes a long time to truck tiny cb with big rbs, then idk how much of an improvement this really is. but I'll wait until i play it and see if the awesomeness of these early builds survive the journey to the shelf.

Im actually suprised Barry Sanders wasnt in the video doing all kinds of ugly spins and jukes, all in all not impressed, Looks like Ea is making games towards kids more then adults. and i see the lean forward run from Madden 12 is back lol

Sounded much better on paper.

As long as folks continue to complain with their fingers & praise with their dollars, this is what EA will deliver.

Looks like.........Madden. Think I may actually pass on it this year, first time since the old 2k games.
