Virtual Sports Network Reviews Madden NFL 25

I suspect that is something that can be cleaned up in an update.

And that's ridiculous and apologetic for EA. This problem didn't exist in m13 on thenps3 and should be unacceptable in m14. Simply saying it's ok because a patch MIGHT fix it again makes me wonder if everything you write is simply to stay in EA's good graces. What about all those Madden gamers whose ps3's aren't online?

I don't recall him saying it was ok. I read it as him saying "I suspect that is something that can be cleaned up in an update." He didn't apologize. Just stated what he thought. Kind of like what people do in reviews. State what they think.

INB4 Dave tells us about how he wasn't invited back to the gamechangers thing because he told them how he really felt.


Oh, and good review Bill. Game is fun and I'm happy owner mode and imported classes are back in.

The game is boring to be honest.

The game is boring to be honest.

It really is.

Nothing truly different in this version compared to last year other than some new jukes.

Same game with the same A.I. Issues. Same manufactured almost scripted gameplay, same lack of basic fundamentals and football IQ. Yes, one does eventually grasp the fact a true to life 100% simulation game is impossible, but one also does recognize there was a game made in 2007 that better represents the game not only on the field but from a presentation standpoint as well.

EA will continue to compartalize football until more people open their eyes to how they are sheep and decide to speak with their wallets. We all know this wont happen though. Because your casual fan in addition to your average 12 year old will continue to buy this game straight up. For those of you with issues with this, but you need a football game, buy it used.

I think the gameplay is leaps and bounds better than last year. The only complaint on gameplay is the diving tackle/bringing him down by his shoestrings tackle. Running the ball is actually fun this year where as last year it just felt like a chore so you can keep the opponent guessing.
