Same here. And I love that we're no longer limited to ea's software to save them. Now we can save actual game play.

And the vid quality is about 100000 times better.

I can't say enough about this game. I was nervous at first but man this game is fun.

One moment for example was when I was playing the Bucs as the Panthers. I have never had a pocket where I could step up in and be able to make a play before. But I had a few instances. But the pocket was never the same.

If this game is a stepping stone for what's to come next year, I honestly can't wait! Started up CFM playing with my custom sliders and had a Monday Night Football-worthy game against San Diego using my Texans. Back and forth game with plenty of action. The only turnoff is the dropped passes by the CPU, otherwise it's a great game of football

I will say this though, there are little things I notice that are considerably different than the current gen version. I mean even more than the fluidity of the animations, etc.

So check this out.. you at the beginning of a game when a your (or the opposing) QB takes the field and the commentators are saying something like "He was a first round selection in 2008, on the filed comes ____insert name____) you would always get the same canned thing about that particular QB... not in next gen.. they actually talk about what he did the week before. I was playing with the Dolphins in a CC and in week 2 rather than them introducing him as the former aggie converted back to his QB position (which they say EVERY TIME in current gen)..the next gen one said..." Coming to lead his team on the field is Ryan Tannehill.. he didnt have that great of a game last week throwing 3 picks, lets see if he can get it done today."

THAT made me smile... they also do it when they introduce the starting offense and defense..they will talk about what they did last week. They still havent got to the point where they talk about individual players during your current game about what they did last week, but these things they are doing are NOT in current gen. I love it.

For me, because I'm a Coach Mode type of guy, Madden next gen was a must buy.. for the ones who gripe about the controls feeling different becauset they play alot of controller and skill based games.. my advice is to just get used to it.. It's actually harder now.. less cheesing (although cheese will always be present)... all in all.. I'm happy with my next gen madden purchase. No, it's not as advanced as that basketball game I bought with my system.. but Madden is on the right track..they are just moving a little slower lol

I bought my ps4 today. Picked up nba 2k14 and bf4 almost passed on madden after reading some reviews on here. I will tell you what

I'm glad I did not pass on it. Game is very crisp play actions looks amazing. The fields alot of the texture is nice. I will say this is prob the first madden I have been happy with since 2004/2005 and that is saying something.

I started a quick game with the browns vs the broncos I chose the browns. I litterattly had to punt my first four times due to no pocket and just the broncos d line bullying my o line. It just felt like a new crisper game.

I'm so glad I deciided to ignore some post on here and try it for myself

I'm having problems with the CPU dropping the ball on all-pro with their slider at 60. Any fix for this? Stafford was like 5-30 100yds 15 drops.

P.S using my sliders from old gen that worked great
