Oh man.. I was planning on skipping Madden this year and just get NCAA (skipped NCAA and got Madden last year.. which was dumb, I know), but Madden just looks too good this year.
Guess I’ll be getting both.

Can’t wait to play the demo.

The battle for 3rd place of the NFC West.

  im sorry but cardinals will get 4th.

    Yeah. and this game is between Seattle and San Fran so what’s your point? The Rams with a few free agency pick-ups will be the team to beat.
    - Pantstitan
      
      Keep in mind you lost your best defender to the Redskins and your secondary is going to just get lit up all year long.

      Generally speaking, if you’re battling for something is described in terms of the desired outcome. As a result, two teams playing in a game that determines who will finish in second place and who will finish is third is usually described as being a “battle for second.” I’m assuming that burgo, like me, read “battle for third” and interpreted it to mean that the winner would finish third and the loser would finish in last place.
      
      It’s not an unreasonable interpretation, and if that’s what GeTMaD meant, then the implication is that the Rams and Cardinals would be the two best teams in the NFC West, with the 49ers and Seahawks lagging behind. Which would probably be a slightly overly-optimistic outlook for the Cards.
Gee

Game looks good so far. I wonder what new bugs will arise as they have “fixed this and that”? Hmmm!
thanks Pasta for the videos.
cheers

Has the halftime show been added back in? Any word of an improved weekly wrap up show in franchise?
- Tyler
  
  Word is that they scrapped the Extra Point and halftime show.

Pasta,

Did you have an opportunity to see if EA added any more classic umiforms and if the Seahawks throwbacks are in and accurate?

Again, awesome job.

Saw nothing gameplay-wise that impressed me. It looks very familiar minus presentation stuff. Need to try it to really judge but so far it’s nothing I haven’t seen before and still doesn’t resemble real NFL football.

  This .. This .. This
  
  Player models are the same. nothing new looking to me. Player models are still terrible as well as animations.

    Compared to what? Look at the directly captured footage out there side by side with M11. I think there are some crucial differences, particularly tackling.

      I will never buy Madden again until they completely get rid of all these old models and animations. When compared to NBA 2k11 graphics Im sorry Madden looks like a PS2 game. I had been playing Madden since 1992 and always supported the series until they stopped trying 2 years ago…

        NBA 2k11 is 5 vs. 5, Madden is 11X11. They have more than twice the amount of players running with the same console limitations, plus the players are much more specialized AND there is tons of collision detection on each play, less than BB. I think your expectations are unrealistic. If 2k made a football game, it couldn’t look much better. Your expectations could not possibly be reached in this console generation.

        For a guy whos never going to buy madden ever again, you seem pretty dedicated to continually come back to this site that mainly shows details on madden 12, a game you’ll supposedly never buy/play… strange.

        I’m really hoping this is a joke.

Is there a way to skip the opening or the cut-scenes? They are nice but after seeing them once, I am done with them.

so…no one saw the bs over the shoulder catch right in front of the safety whom acted as if nothing was happening? or the 5-6 times these guys dropped back 20 yds and threw perfect strikes? or what about all the times the de’s just ran around the offensive tackles and got tfl’s or sacks and the linemen just watched? all these things just show how little the game really changed, but hey, they’ll get my 60 bucks. i give em till 2014 to get this shit straight like they claim they will. just dont play blind ppl be real

  One time in all 3 videos did a qb drop back 20 yards and throw a strike (to Davis). Other than that most of the time you saw a qb drop back you saw him either hit a short pass to a guy who was wide open or he got put on his rear end.

what difficulty are you playing on? The kicking meter seems a little slow

Davis arms are HUGE!!

they need to fix the plays of the game because they are always either not a factor of the game or a 5 yard run

Great coverage on Madden, keep up the good work!

Until they get player movement down it will never look as realistic as it can…. Just saying
- Hehmke7

Where is the NE vs NYJs please

Seeing the DE run wide around the Offensive tackle without getting touched then making a tfl is discouraging.(video 2)

I think that this game is looking great. I hope so since I was so dissapointed with last years version. These videos that I keep seeing online have the game looking visually stunning. I hope gameplay is up to par.

The post game looks sick….hopes it’s not the same every time
Cizzle64

I agree the game looks good, but this video about changes is Madden is spot on( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oWw7evT16c0 ) . These changes could be made in patches…and then we could have a great game Watch This

Lupe Fiasco
