Madden NFL 25 'Feel It' Gameplay Teaser (Next-Gen)

01:59 PM - October 10, 2013 by Skopin

It appears as if EA is planning on showcasing gameplay very soon for Madden NFL 25 next-gen. For now, here's a quick teaser video to get you ready for their 'feel it' feature. We're expecting the full reveal next week!

In the video, you see a variety of teams and quick shots of gameplay. Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson opens up the video talking about how making every step count is important as a running back.

You then see Peterson juke a defender and Jamaal Charles spin off of an Oakland Raider defender. The next clip shows Joe Staley, OT for the 49ers, holding onto the jersey of Cliff Avril, DE of the Seahawks. The next clip shows Ryan Clady and what appears to be Tyson Jackson of the Chiefs jockeying on the edge of a pass play as well. This tends to indicate, to me, that the offensive line play will see some pretty big upgrades in the game. You didn't see that kind of jostling on current gen.

There are other various clips of footwork and a few moves as well. All in all, the video tends to show some potential for notable improvements on the field. We'll know more for sure next week.

EA took 9 years on this generation, but it's still as mediocre as ever. We've already had games from years ago like 2K5, APF 2K8, and BackBreaker that have shown us what else is possible on less powerful consoles - better movements, presentation, and real physics.

Why hasn't it all found it's way into EA games after all this time? Nobody can answer this. Is it marketing? Is it ego? Is it developer ability? Is it effort or lack of competition? Is it the overall direction of the game? Is it because the core of the game isn't easily changeable?

Why? - why are still being fed the same product when we've already seen how much better it can be?

I'm thinking (hoping) it was an early build and/or not all the code branches hadn't been merged the branch they showed.

Hopefully the other 90 percent of the world will be smart and save their much needed money on something else that really matters in life.

Ok I'll play along. What makes ppl dumb if they enjoy madden and you don't?
second) how do you know they aren't showing old sideline footage to not give anything away from their Living Worlds trailer that will come out in a few weeks?
I'm not saying that these aren't the final sidelines. But how about we wait until we see the actual final build of the game before we start crying about how broke we are that we can't afford to buy guys that should only be rented...

You know,.. now that I think about it, the fact that they so quickly and seamlessly implemented the ability to import the PS3 NCAA 14 draft classes,.... that may have been a pretty strong indicator that we're just getting a shined up port of current gen Madden 25.

Here's to hoping I'm wrong.

I'm not saying that Madden 25 next gen is going to be the greatest football game ever, but people sure are making A TON of assumptions based off of a 20-30 second clip. There was about as much gameplay footage shown in the coachglass video as there is in this teaser. RELAX people and let the game be unveiled for what it is, not what you assume it is or isn't. I expect Madden 25 next gen to be better than any current gen Madden, beyond that, we'll have to wait and see. To the guy who said he'd be mad at people that buy this game, what difference does it make? People can buy what they want, I personally have no interest in GTA games, but I'm not going to sit here and say people who buy them shouldn't. It's just a video game, this isn't life and death.

Well, at one point we had another game to buy. I feel like if Madden keeps declining in sales the NFL won't be happy and then maybe we would get another developer to try again.

The feet not touching the grass is a cosmetic issue that they need to fix elsewhere.

thanks sound good to me i can live with that, just hope that elsewhere gets fixed.

The NFL doesn't care just as long as EA pays them and does everything they say. EA would be the one worried about sales. Let's hope sales are bad enough they can't justify paying for the exclusive NFL license.

A guy can dream.

Im more interested in the transition movements from animation-to-animation. All those little snipets look pretty good but are they pulled off smoothly? Or are they abruptly began and stopped? The involuntary movements in between in madden need a lot of work. Animations in Madden seem to always "look" pretty good but it how the player on the field transitions to and from them, that is soooo herky jerky most of the time.

I wonder if they're gonna fix the socks teams like the Dolphins, Bears, and Vikings, Broncos, ect? LOL. Hopefully these are just place holders.

Same thing I said in my previous post. That base locomotion needs to be totally done over. Everything snaps from one animation to another. Nothing is fluid at this point. Everything slides, warps, and snaps into each other.

Good lord. Neither one of you have any idea. Odds are the footage is from neither, it's more than likely from a pc. And I still don't understand how someone can physically look at a video and deny what is obviously there. I'm all for being optimistic but to just flat out go ostrich and plug you fingers in your ear and yell nanana I can't hear you when anyone says something negative is just as bad as people that throw out the mouth guards aren't in so the game is awful and I'm not buying or the screen shots look the same from both gens comments.

I can tell the difference between this and current gen. And if people are actually not picking if a players foot is on the ground on not, they should play real football instead play Madden

You really need to stop posting things as A. Facts and B. Speaking for others.

Change you're post to "I've seen" and there is no issue but you seem to want the stir the pot. You've been warned about this before.

I can see it on my computer, Thank God I don't have an Ipad lol.

I understand but I'm not the only person on here who uses the phrase "we've seen". I'll try not to though.

# 77 ruttentud @ 10/10/13 06:39 PM

Looks the same as current gen to me. Then again, they play little 1 second clips. CONSPIRACY! WHAT ARE THEY HIDING!

But really, can't they just not come up with some silly name and just say, "Yep, they move like real people." Worry about gameplay and the things that are constantly broken year after year before "True Step Locomotion"

Everything I've heard from GC's and other interviews suggests that competition won't be coming back unless the license is lost. Developers of other companies are too sheepish about sales for a generic football title and the NFL seems to be very happy with the money they're getting from EA, so all signs point to competition not coming back and EA keeping the license.

That's marketing for you, they use those names because they work subconsciously and make you think about the specific feature when you say the name. All companies use this in some form or fashion. I don't agree with marketing every little feature but as someone who does marketing for a living, I understand the reason why they do.

Mixing optimism with realistic evaluations and sometimes just straight up calling them on their BS is needed if we want there to be any kind of change.

I honestly don't think my opinion will change the product. What does change a product is having a guy like Cam Weber in charge as long as he's allowed to do what he wants with the game and isn't held back by any of the suits.
