Up in the air on purchase

Hi Guys

I have a question for the guys that have madden 12 and madden 13. This year was the first year that I never picked up madden ( money was tight, didn't have that strong madden urge this year) Anways now that the price has been lowered I'm contemplating picking it up. In your opinions would I be best served at this point getting it or just continuing with M12 and waiting until August for the new game? Any opinions would be great

Thanks

What features do you like to use on Madden? Online, Franchise, Superstar?

i asked a similar question earlier today and have been having trouble getting responses.

short answer: not worth the $$.

it depends on how you play madden but I think your better off sticking with 12.

had gift cards so i traded in m12 for m13. m13 cost me a total of $5 plus tax. played m13 for a while, got through a season, then restarted due to updates for fixes. played a season and really started to hate how the ai would resign or not resign players, not know who retired, etc....

ended up trading m13 in and bought back m12 and made $5 on the switch. so it cost me pretty much nothing to get m13 and i ended up hating it after a while.

went back to 12 since i love controlling 32 teams and can set up "MY NFL" the way i want it. if you are just looking to play and stuff like that maybe buy 13, but if you like to control and run teams your way, stay with 12

I prefer 13. I like the feel of the gameplay better, but it's a personal preference. You can always try renting M13 or even if you buy it and don't like it, most stores offer a return policy.

Thanks for the help guys. I only really play offline franchise.

I was wondering also how many of you guys keep playing madden throughout the year? I can really only get into football during the football season, actually I'm like that for most sports games. Do you find you can enjoy a football game from Feb-July?

Absolutely. When there's no football on, it helps a bit. But it does make me miss the regular season.

Adding to your post, the CCM in 13 is a neat change to franchise mode. Personally, I love being able to have Joe Gibbs as my HC. Now that it has been updated, it's worth it IMO.
