Madden NFL 25 Next-Gen Presentation Trailer (Official)

[spottieottiedop]

Some of these complaints are laughable. I guess folks wanted holograms for the graphics. Then we have folks saying Madden sucked this entire gen, and then act disappointed with the new trailer. I guess I'm in the minority cause I loved what I saw. Bengals stadium looked crazy

Fifa showed at the Germany show BECAUSE it has a huge market in Europe. If Madden did, they'd be there too I can assure you that. Marketing for these game is extremely calculated and it's not simply tied to confidence in their game and which one they think is good. Fifa is obviously going to be first on the docket for them.Its their #1 game. Madden going to Germany is throwing money away.

Ah, the irony of your statement. I don't care about the profit margin, in this instance. My viewpoint is that of a gamer. I could care less about how profitable either title is. I care about how fun and rewarding a gaming experience it is. When I go to work, different story. And you have brought into focus what ills the industry at large. FIFA is fun, and becoming more profitable by the iteration Madden is on the decline. Maybe because it's not considered either fun or top tier anymore. Seems Tiburons marketing is spending more than ever and trying harder than ever to polish Petunia. Doesn't seem to be helping the eroding sales, does it?

P.S. I must disagree with your oversimplification that FIFA simply sells more because of a larger geographic audience. It sells in that larger market because it is a better game. When it was chasing PES in quality, it wasn't the monster seller it is now. It was much like madden, relying on licenses and authenticity. Option files made that a mute point. FIFA sells like hotcakes due to EAC spending the money and time to build a great game.....

But its assinine to watch their first trailer, which showed more footage than the 2k14 trailer, and rag on the fact that they havent shown every single element of their new game in one shot. At least wait for the info to come out before you bash it. Also, if you have zero hope that they might do it right this time around, why the heck are you even here? You clearly arent here to comment on the trailer

This could be the greatest game since sliced bread, and I'm in no way saying it will be, and you would still get this attitude from the vocal ***** group which will NEVER be satisfied as long as EA holds the license. They throw their temper tantrums like spoiled children. It's entertainment in it's own right.

Not too bad at the moment FIFA still looks like the only sports game I will buy for either the PS4 or the One when I get one. At least for the first year.

You're not getting my point. You mentioned that Fifa is out there for the masses to see and suggested that it's not trying to hide anything because the current gen games have been great(which they have). And I'm simply telling you that the only reason it's out there moreso than Madden right now is because it has a much wider fanbase. It has nothing to do with which game they think will be more fun than the other. Fifa having more footage out there means nothing in terms of which game is projected to be better on next gen. The only,and I mean only reason next gen Fifa is more accessible right now is because its their #1 game and thats only because the sport of soccer/futbol is the most popular worldwide(maybe Cricket).

With Ignite, all of the games are sharing the same technology as well. So its not going to be a case where 1 game gets the better crowds or another gets the better renderings. Marketing? Sure, they'll push out info for the most popular games first(FIFA), but building the games should be pretty even in terms of resources.

Some people, no matter how life like and fantastic Madden is, will hate it simply because EA has the rights. They are literally blind folded by hate. But whats funny is that if the "2K" logo was slapped on every piece of Madden next gen footage, they'd eat it all up.

Look, anyone expecting a miracle Madden 25 next gen is fooling themselves. It'l be a souped up Madden 25 current gen. EA needs time to fully utilize the next gen platform. It is like this with every new release.

It'll be a good game, and yes I feel Madden 25 current gen is good. Like everyone else, lets see what EA can do with a new gen on the playability side.

Here's hoping for blocked kicks and the occasional DPI!!!

I admit a few hours ago I bitched and moaned when I saw that so called Next Gen trailer. But after now seeing the "real" Next Gen Madden 25 trailer I am once again excited for the future of Madden. I think Madden 25 on Next Gen will be the start of something special.
