Madden NFL 25 Video - MNF Simulation: Colts vs. Chargers (Xbox One)

[joec63]

Here's the thing. If the game wasn't fixed/corrected moving to next gen then it's not going to happen anytime in the foreseeable future. Just more trying to plug holes and add-ons to a game that should have been re-written from the ground up upon moving to Next Gen.

That's not a good comparison, once the player leaves he is no longer representing my team, which is different from this situation. Madden NFL is supposed to represent, you know, THE NFL.

They used it in NCAA for years.

Mea culpa, i don't play NCAA games, so i stand corrected. Actually, now i remember playing a college basketball game from ea that had espn AND CBS presentation. So yeah, i was wrong. Point still stands about MADDEN and FIFA, though. They are using it now for live, so there's hope.

Lol, yea, I know it was a bad comparison but it was the best I could come up with

The premise remains though.

Ew. Again, this looks not great. Trent Richardson running looks hilarious. He's almost doing the goose step, and that's definitely not a showboat thing because there are defenders right there. And if that is the AI showboating, then that's just a great example of awful AI. I saw a catch animation where the ball was still caught with an inch or two of air between the hand. Like somebody else said, it just looks robotic.

I hope they use it in Madden. A MNF package and/or weekly wrapup show would be awesome!

I'm not giving up. There is something weird going on between EA and ESPN. No way will the game look and animate that badly. I'm sure M25 next gen will have plenty shortcomings but I don't think the ESPN vids will be what we see next month.
