I agree, I find it amusing though that earlier in this thread your referred to our opinion as amusing to you.

So I guess a difference in opinion is okay when it benefits you but when it doesn't it's simply amusing???

The running in this video looks way better than what you posted from apf IMO

Yeah everything looks better zoomed in and edited, lol. Either way, IT'S SUPPOSED TO LOOK BETTER. This game is 7 years old, and it's STILL debatable. APF looks natural, madden looks stiff. There's no headtracking in madden. Players heads turn with their body. Both are videogames clearly, but imo one looks more realistic, and that's APF.

I guess I'll never understand... Is there some secret compensation package that I don't know about for putting on special goggles to view madden as something that it clearly isn't? I don't get how it benefits anyone to convince oneself (or others) that madden is better than it really is. I swear, it's like convincing people that a Toyota Camry handles better than a Ferrari. The inability to separate between WANTING something to be great and its actual level of greatness (or lack there of in this case) is baffling.

The line play in Madden is not close to the best ever in a football game. It has tons of issues that have been well documented here and all over social media. I even sent JP a video last week, which of course, got no response. The player movement and interaction in Madden are not good. Even the developers themselves have acknowledged this. The game is being rewritten for a reason. Madden 15, 16, 17 will not be the games that make us forget about past football games. Let's be real here.

You don't think even by 17????? I'm saying 16 and in ways 15 will outdo previous football games.

Especially not in Madden 25 when I've seen pass rush animations that look like they're on rails. Certain animations are only available to the AI, and certain animations are only available to the user. If I see that in 15 it'll be more proof of how good this team at Tiburon is. I mean line play was a FOCUS last year, and this crap was added on purpose just to say, "see look, we did add this".

Sure, hasn't been fixed in 10 years but I have full faith it will be fixed by 17. Makes total sense.
