Madden NFL 25 Next Gen Video - The Prototype (QJB)

[Steven78]

Its called immersion. It's called everything we see on Sundays. EA marketed it as Living Worlds, not us. I just disagree that an interactive crowd and sideline add nothing to the game.

I'm not counting it out yet. I'm not really satisfied with what has been shown, but I keep getting a feeling the final game will be different than these videos.

There has been quite a bit of deviation between each set of videos, making me wonder what is the final build. I refuse to pass judgment until I see actual final build gameplay. I'm buying either way because I have fun with Madden 25 CG and NG has to be better in more ways than one. I doubt it'll be perfect, but eh. We will see.

Snoozefest

Like it was said, best thing about this video is no commentary. And Andy Reid.

Could Madden be more next gen and add 100 things on the sideline and all of this other hoopla, I guess so but for about 90% of the world it just does't matter. For Next gen what we really want to see are Better graphics and physics, if they did this then game Won. I remember now why I stopped coming to this site.......

If all madden is missing is better graphics and physics for you then more power to you. i just finished playing 5 games in my CFM and Madden could go a longggg way in the little things to keep me immersed. Mainly being the CPU AI play calling.. if they did that I could actually enjoy competitive games without boosting the CPU performance to unrealistic levels.

The thing that gets me the most is the fact that ea is pulling the same stunt again. I'm referring to the madden 06 cg debacle. What is shown in the skins video is defiantly not gameplay. The lighting, the crowd, The player models are night and day compared to qjb's videos. Fool me once shame on me, fool me twice???? I can't believe that somewhere in a corporate office someone actually said " hey lets show rendered footage and then give them something different. They will never call us out on it" I wish common sense was more common

They already came out and siad this wasn't in game footage and it was CG. They weren't trying to fool anyone.

No actually they didn't. They said something along the lines of the video was created using tools from the ignite engine. They never said it was CG. Why show a video of something that will look or play NOTHING like it?

False advertisement much?

I meant to attach an e3 pick. But after just going over pics and vids from e3, the footage in qjb's videos is even worse than e3. Even the video of just ap in that practice simulator looked better. I just don't get it. Why would you bait and switch again?
