Madden 25 "Post-Release" Impressions

I forget what program I use, but it basically uses the 360 as a wireless sound system. The program is connected with the sound card of the computer and inputs it to your 360 over Wifi.

Edited previous post.

I like the ability to still have all the game noises in play while the music plays behind it.

I could turn up my stereo and tv at the same levels, I suppose.

Anybody know if there is any time in the off-season when a players position can be changed other than left/right?

SuperSIM results are still way out of hand (in CFM)

I get the feeling that SuperSim doesn't run the clock in between plays, so you get way to many plays being run and that's what scews the SuperSim stats. Just my guess. It does make SuperSim useless unless you run a short quarter with no accelerated clock. Anybody know if this is true or not?

Offseason

only 50 posts regarding a new version of this game does not bode well imo.

i had no plans on getting this game, but if enough buzz was going on around here it might have made me pick it up.

as it stands, my buddy who is the manager of a local pawn shop is going to give me one of the copies that comes in, only cause he and i have for the past 9 years have been playing a franchise together, and cause he twisted my arm into accepting a free game. he's of course taking the first one that comes in though haha

Only people that really get their money's worth out of the game are in TGT or 220. Both leagues just finished up the Madden 13 cycle in July and are picking right back up in the next week or so with Madden 25. Most others will probably play 1 or 2 months max because playing against the CPU is boring. If you want some real comments and impressions on the game, check out the TGT/220 chatbox or ask some of the league members. Otherwise you're gonna get the same people shitting on Madden regardless of whether it plays well or not.

Sprots Video Gamez are meant to be played vs another human. Playing against the CPU is ugh...

Although MLB the Show is the one game that can hold my attention for quite a while.

hence why i agreed to have him pick me up a pawned copy, he and i will have our little franchise together and it'll be alright.

it's been years since i've actually played the computer, if i'm not playing friends, i'm usually just simming seasons to see how good a team i can put together and to kill time

I could be wrong but I remember there being a lot more buzz about the game around the forums last year compared to this season.

I haven't picked madden up and really have no plans on it currently and that's mainly because I don't have the time commitment to leagues like I did last year. IMO the only reason I played madden into Feb last year was because most leagues were fairly active and I could ignore the glaring gameplay problems. I'm a huge offline guy because of my odd work schedule and I enjoyed an offline franchise of 12+ years in one file before I got sick of things and had to give it up.

I think thats because there were more active posters here last year. With leaving this place has been a deadzone.

Noticed they forgot to add some of the uniform options they show you when you relocate. My roommate relocated to Portland as the Lumberjacks and the uniforms he chose were awesome, they had two different helmets but when we got to the next season the helmets didn't show up to use.
