Madden NFL 16: E3 Hands-On Preview

02:49 PM - June 18, 2015 by RaychelSnr

Legacy issues have plagued the Madden series for more than half a decade. After several hours of play against both another player and the CPU, I can happily say that most of those issues have either been taken care of or toned down a significant amount. It is clear that Tiburon is going out of its way to address things that were taking away from simulation football, and its not so much the things that were added to Madden 16 that make the game exciting, but rather what it took away.

Sounds like a sales pitch. A clever one for most....

His play calling sucks and he keeps forcing the ball to Odell Beckham(tho OBJ does make a few nice catches in the 2nd half)

Guys, I know its not really gameplay related, but any idea when the new uniforms will be implemented? I think Nike did a nice job for this year. Thanks!

Thanks! I checked online and all the new uniforms look a bit different:

I am sure they will be updated no?

# 86 ShaiLeGran @ 06/24/15 07:47 AM

Ok..I think those are from a guy who just liked to redesign them and not official Nike new uniforms. My bad, sorry

There's a few more but I'll wait for the presentation reveal first.

Idk for sure but maybe soon because I noticed on the madden facebook page they posted that pic hinting at the playmaker broadcast aspects.

The problem with Madden every year is the fact it breeds cheesing and glitching because of the really bad core gameplay and physics. This game literally teaches kids how they shouldn't play, and makes it the way to play. Same play offense, 1 play defense defending everything. Until they get rid of that Madden will forever be a joke to me no matter how many times these fake reviews claim it's better each year.

Fake reviews? Here's an honest review, the game has improved tremendously. Doesn't have everything we want, but there is a major difference in overall gameplay this year.

Not sure. I wouldn't trust your opinion of "honest review". I'll wait until some OSers actually have the game, play it for awhile and get "there" honest reviews of the game. I'm not trying to diss you. Just saying you are just the other side of this guys coin.

Fair enough, but ultimately the only opinion that really matters is your own. Some people are looking for different things from this game and they may or may not find them this year and that will affect their opinion of the game. Gameplay wise though, yes I feel the game has improved tremendously. I can't even play 15 except to finish my CFM now.

Lets hope this game kan Atleast give us all something.

A honest review, from the biggest Madden die hard on the planet. Hymm.

Seriously, I can't possibly fall for this again. When I see a Madden 16 video, I see the exact same small "improvements" the yr before it saw. It's the same game with paint and over blown features.

I'm far from the biggest Madden diehard. I gave Madden 15 a 7.5. I've played enough Madden 16 to know that yes it has improved tremendously in gameplay.

JP I don't doubt the gameplay has improved, I just doubt that the actual release will be the same game you played. Much like last year when we were seeing a good number of inaccurate passes leading up to release, then it was nerffed once the game came out.

This would be a real shame if it happens again

I don't remember but did we see any pre-release All-Madden gameplay last year? Only reason why I ask is because I'm pretty sure all the stuff was also just Pro and All-Pro and the QB this year hasn't looked much different in the M16 vids than what I remember from last year. Had we gotten a bunch of All-Madden default videos with QB accuracy at 50 I'm sure it wouldn't have been all that surprising that it wasn't nearly as effective as it was touted to be.

Looks interesting enough for me to buy it.

As with FIFA, i'm still stuck with 14 (old gen), and i'm planning to buy Madden or FIFA this year (because i'm getting the PS4 next month), and i can't get both because MGSV...

So far, Madden looks way better than FIFA when compared to their previous versions.

Games looks pretty good, but as most of you, i'm really worried about these "superstar catches"... I just hope they have finally fixed the OL/DL interactions, psychic DBs and sniper-level of accuracy of QBs in the last 2 or 3 minutes of the game when the CPU is losing.

I appreciate all of the Madden updates, and early info, and your personal opinion of upcoming iterations of the game. (I 'thumb-up' many of comments and information that you provide here.)

So don't take offense to this, but I would argue that you are the epitome of a Madden "die-hard". We need not look any further than your own signature ("Been playing Madden since '92") to know where your allegiance is. Therefore I wouldn't quite say that you are an objective/impartial voice in the football gaming community. I don't exactly recall you giving Madden 15 a middle-of-the-road "7.5", but I do recall much of the hype & promotions you gave the game before release -- which feels very similar to this year...

For NFL-gaming-craved fans (like myself), I hope that your expectations for Madden 16 become correct...
