EA Degin of Football games is a Joke!

Madden football games have become a joke.
Not much distinguishes Madden NFL 25 from last year's Madden 13. The game has not been refined at all, but I never buy a madden game two years back to back and Im sorry I did it this time as well. I will not buy M14 for the PS4, I learned my lesson from xbox360 lunch
The presentation is poor. Whith the Infinity engine the game is the same as years past.
Madden still lags behind 2k sport games, EA Sports series like NHL and FIFA when it comes to visual and audio impact. The interface is awkward and slow. It takes too many button presses to reach many frequently accessed functions, and the game pauses with fairly lengthy loads whenever you move from one menu window to another. There isn't much glitz or attention to fine detail, either. Players and coaches often look nothing like their real-life counterparts. Stadiums are sterile and lifeless, with static graphics, jaggy architecture, and generic jack-in-the-box fans who look like cardboard cutouts mounted on springs.
Further contributing to the visual inconsistencies are animations that are repeated over and over again, like the trainer squirting water into a player's mouth as he comes off the field when a time-out is called. Touchdown celebrations are constantly reused, too. There is also an overall softness to everything after snaps. It's as if the game is just slightly out of focus as you're playing, which is frustrating since the zoomed-in replays shown between plays are typically sharp.
EA has taken out on field sound effects such as the sound of tackling, players talking to one another, and the sound of kicking the football is terrible and you cannot even hear it.
The music is very dated and primitive sounding for an EA Sports game. All you hear are old stadium tracks like the Black Eyed Peas' "Boom Boom Pow" and Joe Satriani's "Crowd Chant," along with the odd bit of classic rock like AC/DC's "Thunderstruck" and Guns N' Roses' "Welcome to the Jungle." The booth duo of Jim Nantz and Phil Simms is atrocious. They offer nothing but inanities, generic observations about the "offense" and the "defense" that rarely refer to players by name, and loads of those obnoxious "I'll tell you what" tics that make Simms so insufferable. Neither of them is watching the game that you're playing. They constantly contradict one another and make mistakes like saying how strong the pass protection has been today just after a QB has been sacked for the fourth time.
I always turn them off or mute their terrible in game comments. I wish I can mute the live in game comments as well.
I will wait until next year or 2016 to buy a football for the PS4.
Don’t waste your time. Gamespot Gave Madden 14 a 6.0 which is bad because M13 erned a 7.5. by that rating along it shows the Madden 14 is going backwards in the designs of this game.
You better take it back before you want get any of your money back for this game.
I got rid of this game..
What's great about it: its a joke and EA is making money
What's not so great: gamers got another poorly make football game
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

poor copy of NCAA football 12
on July 18, 2012
Posted by: Inspect1
from indiana
It has been a long time since I bought a college football game or madden football and I was getting tired of waiting on EA to make a good madden football game. The last good football game I got was madden 10.
The last ncaa football game I got was 2005.
Now back to ncaa 13, this game is the worse football game I have ever bought and I am not trying to be funny. This game has been copy and paste to another disc from last year’s game but it is terrible.
The colors of the grass, uniforms, and everything is washed out in this game. The Sound effects is terrible and the tackling sounds is gone.
The crowds in the stands are like cutout cardboard pictures. Nothing looks real and there are no cheerleaders on the field making you feel like you are playing a real college football game. The colors are washed out so bad that it hurts my eyes to look at the game while I am playing it. out Do not buy this game. even though other reviews give this game a 5 and called this game a great game. They are not telling the truth at all. There are some reviews who will not write the truth about EA games for some unknown reason. But I am here to tell you the truth and I have nothing to gain or lose.
NCAA FOOTBALL 12 got a rating of 7.0
NCAA FOOTBALL 13 got a 6.5 but it should have gotten a 4.0 byy gamespot.com
So I took NCAA FOOTBALL 13 back to the game store and trade it in for NCAA 12 and I was pleased. You better get rid of NCAA FOOTBALL 13 before you will not get any money back for it, especially if you paid $65. I paid $44.99 for that copy and I lost about $15 on it.
EA is also making madden 13 and I will not buy this game until I see it even if there are great reviews and rating. If it is not better than madden 10, I will not buy it even though I love playing football. I got a bad feeling that madden 13 is going to be made very similar to ncaa 13 because EA makes both games and it looks like they do a lot of copying and pasting.
Do not buy this game. Rent it first
Do not buy!!!

SynopsisSaturday. To some, it's a day off from work, a day to sleep in, a day to kick back. For you, Saturday is what you train for all week.

The day when your most heated rival will be laid to rest — or trample on your pride. It's game day. And in the fierce world of college football, it's more than just a game — it's a way of life. Do you have what it takes to go back to school and bring glory to your campus on the field?Climb into your school colors and hit the stadium for the most authentic college football experience yet in NCAA Football 12. This year, the traditions are more intense, the celebrations are rowdier and the school pride has never been so real. Live the pain, glory, action and grit of Saturday any day of the week as you take the competition to the 50-yard line against your fiercest rivals. Deliver punishing hits and devastating tackles with the all-new momentum-based collision and tackling system that lets you control a player through the moment of impact.

This game is the same as years before it. Now it is very difficult to complete a pass, kick off run backs are just too hard to get passed the 20yd line.
Presentation is good and graphics are good as well. EA still have control of how many passes you can complete, fumbles you will have, how many INT you will have, and so on.
This game could have been a great game but there are just too many unfair settings against you.
If you have a player with great speed on a so called poor team, EA setup makes sure that that player run much slower against those so called better teams.
Often time’s players on poor team run backward or sideways so good team can stop you. thanks to EA unfair settings.
These issues is also visible in madden10, 11, and will be visible in madden 12.
I would not pay 64.00 for this game or madden12 as well. I also did not buy M11.
Wait and read other poor reviews and wait until the price is cheaper.

Not in 3D misleading
on February 12, 2011
Posted by: Inspect1
from indiana
Excellent review bdogg, I totally agree with your assessment of this 3D movie. There are a lot of 3D movies that are not in 3D or have poor 3D effects such as Deep sea, Piranha 3D, journey to the center of the earth 3D, Allis in wonder land, among others.
Many of the 3D movies out now are poor 3D movies especially those old movies that were made into 3D. don’t buy!!
In addition, many of the reviews on 3D movies are not giving you the truth. I have learned to listen to those reviews that have given a 1 or 3 star on a movie or and item. I also look for reviews that focus on picture quality, sharpness, and 3D effects.
Many movie companies have not upgrade to 3D cameras so you have to be careful. 3D is still new. At this point the only movie companies I would trust are Sony & disney. Sony is the first to make 3D TVs, 3D movies, 3D dvd players, 3D glasses but I would be careful with them as well until more of the movie companies start making 3D movies.
Disney’s cartoon movies maybe the only safe movies to buy but you may want to rent them first as well.
What's great about it: good blue ray copy is available
What's not so great: not in 3D at all

Poor 3D effects, too pricey
on February 3, 2011
Posted by: Inspect1
from indiana
When I read the first 2 reviews, I wanted to warm you about the truth of this movie before you throw your money away.
Most of the 3D effects are focus on fish crawling on the floor of the sea. Who wants to see fish walking on the floor of the sea or laying under rocks or something. Like that.
The movie commentary was boring and too much, and you do not need two people (Johnny Depp and Kate winslet) talking about a fish. Kate winslet would have been fine.
The little scenes of fish swimming did not make you want to say wow! At all. in fact, you will get tired of watching them swim like looking at regular TV. This movie is not worth $40.00 at all.
Many of the 3D movies out now are poor 3D movies especially those old movies that were made into 3D. don’t buy!!

Very poor 3D effects

I do know that this is the blue ray copy I am reviewing but every one need to know how bad the 3D part of this movie is.
Well this movie could have been a excellent 3D movie but sony picture forgot to used 3D cameras. This movie had very poor 3D effects and it was too disgusting in some scenes. I agree with the freeman that The gore, is so over the top that I also felt a little sick watching some of the climax scenes.
Do not buy this movie on 3D it is a waste of your money. If you have to see this movie buy it on blue ray DVD instead. This is just a sample of of how movie companies are trying to take more money from us buy making us believe that every 3D movie is made in 3D. wrong!! Please rent first..

Okay movie, story line not that good
With jet lee in this movie I was hoping that it would have been a more realistic and serious story/fight sceens.
Although there were some good special effects but the story had too many playful fight scenes and unrealistic jumping scenes. the story line also remind me of the karate kid movie as well. I was not a fan of those movies. It could have been a lot better.
All of Jackie chan movies are unrealistic and have playful fight scenes. If you like serious and realistic story and fight scenes this is not the movie for you.
Oh yeah! The special effects was very good and the blue ray picture was out standing. Plus, the sound effects was very good as well.

Good movie but Blue-ray too pricey

Good movie but Blue-ray too pricey I got a chance to see this movie on TV one evening and it was really good. The acting was good, the special effects was very good. The bugs really looked realistic, and the story was not bad as well. so whenever I give a movie this type of rating, I do try to buy it. However, not this movie on blue-ray, because it is well over priced and the blue-ray movie is not worth $50.I do not understand why it is so exspensive. It is a good movie to see but not to own on blue-ray.However, regular DVD price is okay but I am interested in blueray DVDs.
What's great about it: Good acting, special effects, story and humor
What's not so great: Blue-Ray too pricy
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Good movie but poor HD picture quality
on June 8, 2009
Posted by: Inspect1
from indiana
Defiance is a really good movie and I like it very much. The story, actors, the intensity, and drama were powerful. This is a must see movie. but
defiance is another one of those blue ray movies that present it self as a high definition movie that is not an HD quality made film at all.
It is clear that this movie like many other blue ray movies was not filmed with an HD camera/equipment. Many film companies especially the big movie companies
Such as Disney, paramount, Sony, and Universal among others are not making all their movies in HD blue ray but selling these movies at a HD price.
The Picture throughout the movie is distorted and hazy around the actors and other images in all the scenes in this movie.
So please be careful because all blue ray movies are not made in HD and they are charging us $25 to $34 for poorly made movies.
Please rent them first before you buy them. it would save you a lot of money and disappointment. Buy the regular DVD instead if you really have to have this movie in your movie library or wait until the price is lowered to at least 15.00 to 19.00 because that is what these so called blue ray movies maybe worth.
This is not a true blue ray made movie, do not buy it at the HD price. Wait!! Do not let movie companies make fools out of us.
What's great about it: Good movie, story, intensity, and drama
What's not so great: but picture quality is very poor for a blue ray movie
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

but it still a terrible made game. My TV is in HD and the game looks terrible. The graphics are hazy and the colors are washed out. I have already taken this game back.
franchise mode is gone
Now you cannot pick a team and play them all the way to the superbowl.
You are only allow to play the game as one player on DF or OF. The cpu will play everything else for you. or you can play as a coach of a team, calling the plays and the cpu playing the game for you.
This is crazy. Plus with HD TV, The game graphics looks hazey and colors are washed out
Do not buy this game. I am finish with EA madden games. I took this game back and got haft of my money back,.

It's Madden
By pbnbcr from Indiana
It's Madden so if you've played any iteration of it before, you know what to expect. The gameplay is nice though there is nothing truly ground breaking about it. I have this for the playstation 4 and I've gotta say, I was expecting a little more in the graphics department. The colors are almost cartoonish at times. There are no tattoos on the players and that takes away from some of the realism. However, it's still a solid game. The player ratings are pretty good.

how can a game be no better than last year game and get a 5star. crazy! this game is terrible that is why the price has already dropped $10. do not let this reviewer trick you. EA did a very poor job making this game. the in game graphics are terrible, hazy with a white fume from one corner of the tv scream to the next 3 coners, sound effects are shaky. you cannot even hear the ball being kick and tackling sounds are weak and sad. read other 1 star reviews on amazon and gamespot.com do not buy this junk
