To me, the gameplay looks pretty good, not great, but a definite improvement in terms of fluidity in movement and o/d line interactions look much improved. You can't turn a game that people are calling "trash" into "treasure" in one cycle guys. Continued improvement in gameplay and areas that matter is what we are wanting, let's hope it continues and at a faster rate, but at the same time, don't expect so much on the first iteration of a game on a new console. Can anyone name ONE non first party title on 360 that blew you away graphically when Xbox 360 launched?

JP i love your passion and optimism. And I actually agree with what your saying. I am one of the few ppl who is looking forward to this game. But stop trying to convince other posters that they will like Madden or to give Madden more time. It doesn't work. Everyone has their opinion/feelings about the game. You can (and have) make the same strong valid points but ppl just aren't feeling it. And that is their opinion, as you have yours. This thread is about the MNF Next gen video that was posted. Not about back in 06 or other first party games etc.

Agreed.

And to be fair to Madden/EA, its hard to form an opinion on gameplay when all we are seeing are basically zoomed in replays of what happened. If you're going to show gameplay then show gameplay, otherwise its nothing more, imo, then a trailer.

What DO WE WANT THEM TO DO??? WHAT DO WE WANT THEM TO DO JP!!!???

1. Realistic running animations
2. Authentic QB Drop backs
3. True Physics which surpasses Backbreakers (Inferior hardware)
4. Deep penalty system that works
5. Realistic crowd reactions
6. Real time cut scenes
7. Ability to choose d-line coverage
8. Custom camera angle for users to play around with
9. Realistic sidelines that react to on the field action

That's just off the top of my head. How can you continue to dime EA Tiburon out every gameplay video they release? We shouldn't even be comparing previous games on inferior hardware to Madden Next Gen. You say "The gameplay looks good, not great". IT SHOULD LOOK GREAT SINCE THEY'VE BEEN USING THE SAME ENGINE FOR ALMOST 10 YEARS NOW!!!!

JP..Do you remember Madden 2001 on Playstation 2? That was the 1st football game released when the Playstation 2 launched and it was GREAT compared to the PSX counterpart!

I'm tired of the excuses man....How much will it take for you to give up and realize the team that is currently making the game isn't good enough? How long will you give them? Madden 2050?

EA fooled us into believing the E3 video was legit by releasing the slomo video of RG3,Marshawn Lynch, and Patrick Willis video. Now it's all starting to make sense now that we're seeing videos in real time.

It's only a matter of time before the average Joe catches on to what EA Tiburon is doing. Same fate that NBA Live had will catch on to Madden. I guarantee it!

COME ONNNN!!!!

I will admit I was planning on buying a copy of Madden 25 when I pick up my PS4 on November 15th but the more i see of this game the more I am starting to think I may not pick it up at all now. I have not bought a Madden game since Madden 08 on PC and it's starting to look like another year without video game football for me.

This is not what video game football should look like on a gaming system as powerful as the PS4 and X Box One!

I am so mad right now!

I get that and I'm not trying to convince people of anything, see that's what I don't get. I'm just giving my opinion, but people think I have some sort of agenda. I do not have any agenda at all. I know people may think I'm a fanboy, but trust me, I'm almost always one of the first people to jump on a dev on Twitter once I see something I'm not satisfied with. That's the side of me that people on here probably don't see, but if you see my posts on Twitter, you'll know that I'm not just saying everything that Madden is doing is cool with me.

If people don't like this video that's fine with me, I just feel like comparing a port of FIFA to a port of Madden is apples to oranges, based on where these two franchises currently stand.
