Madden NFL 25 - Playstation 3

Since a bunch of trees block my view of outer-space to the east-southeast, I'm unable to subscribe to DirectTV (and therefor, the NFL Sunday Ticket package). So if I want to watch anything besides the Cardinals or Cowboys on a fine Sunday in AZ, I'm heading to a sports bar. Which is alright once in a while, but I really don't want to spend every Sunday throwing down $50 - $75 on beer, wings and brats, then walking home. So I got into an every-other Sunday routine, then just put up with the broadcast games on off weeks. Even to watch the games online, you had to have DirectTV's dish setup and subscribe to the Sunday Ticket package (approx. $225 - $300 without the introductory specials). Yeah you could usually find some pirate stream and suffer through the buffering and random disconnects, but that's more frustrating than fun and I'd just as soon watch the score updates - or cruise on down to the sports bar... again. Then I gotta schlep my work stuff back over there Monday morning and there's not even any leftovers in the fridge! Ripoff. Well, those days are over with MADDEN NFL 25th ANNIVERSARY EDITION! You see, MADDEN NFL 25th ANNIVERSARY EDITION is a card enclosed in a box. On that card is a code and a website address. What you do is navigate to that web address, put in that code, and Bam! All the games. You can even download an app for Android or iOS tablets and phones and watch on the go. My preferred setup is a laptop behind behind the HDTV, hooked in through an HDMI cable. Picked up a $20 Logitech remote mouse/keyboard setup for the coffee table and I'm watching football like a boss. You can do picture-in-picture, quad screen, full screen... all that stuff. Switching games is as easy as moving your cursor towards the top of the screen. All the game scores slide down and you just grab the game you want. You can also load your fantasy football roster and get on-screen notifications if you're into that stuff. The connection is stable, switching is fast, and I've experienced zero buffering through the first five weeks of the season. I hope DirecTV continues to offer this as long as they retain the rights to out-of-market NFL games. It's a hell of a deal at $99. Oh yeah, this thing also comes with a video game. Apparently this "Enhanced Edition" of that game comes with extra players that you can't get in the Standard Edition, so I was able to sell it for $60 and I don't see that being a problem next year either. So for a net of $39 a year, or even the full $99 (if you actually want the video game), I highly recommend MADDEN NFL 25th ANNIVERSARY EDITION.

Every year I say I'm not buying the new one...there's just not enough upgrades to justify the purchase...yet every year I do it. Madden 25 was all about the Sunday Ticket for me though. It gave me the ability to watch Eagles games every week from California. Although by the end of the season they were being nationally broadcast, so I didn't need the Sunday ticket. Either way, this year's game HEAVILY favors running backs, but it is very fun. Easy to pick up and play right away, a little harder to get full mastery, and if you put it on All-Madden, you can get a great challenge. The Sunday Ticket, it's great when it worked properly. I think the issues were more with Direct TV's site though and compatibility issues with a Chromebook's video capabilities. Overall, well worth the extra $40 over the regular edition, and in all honesty for someone who's team doesn't usually get air time in their area, worth the $100 price tag on its own without the game. I might not keep buying Madden every year, but if you don't have a recent year, then buy the newest one when it comes out, if you wait 2 to 3 years in between buying Madden games, you will see bigger upgrades between the versions you pick up...but they are great games with great quality to the gameplay and perks they add in there. Sunday Ticket...I hope Google buys you and Direct TV just gives up on their terrible product and worse customer service!

I like playing Madden NFL video games, but I don't get them every year. I mostly like to pick up and play offline games or play offline franchise, and while I can get pretty into the games and the general manager aspect of it, I'm probably more of a casual Madden player than a hardcore Madden gamer. So feel free read on if you are looking for that point of view. After playing Madden NFL 11 into submission, I finally made the move to the newest entry in the Madden NFL franchise upon the release of Madden NFL 25. While I really enjoy it so far, I'm still adjusting to the differences between it and the game I've spent countless hours playing over the last couple of years. Here's a few of my initial impressions: 1) The graphics and in-game presentation are very well done. The visuals are much more lifelike and like an NFL game on TV. What I did find disappointing were the coach models and the generic head scans for players and other extras. EA still doesn't seem to have solved the weirdness with the way some coaches appear, like the unnatural shoulder and neck anatomy, odd skin textures and questionable head scans. Head scans for `everyman' players and sideline extras are also exactly the same from years prior, which is another area where I was hoping to see improvements. 2) The controls are familiar, but come with new additions like the Precision Modifier for ball-carriers and quarterbacks that adds another level of control. When you develop the touch to make that last tackler miss with a nasty combination juke or drop a pass right over that top of a linebacker into the soft spot of the defense, it's much more satisfying than it was when you did the same with a simple button tap or press. There's also a sprint button with stamina meter, which is a nice touch from the press-and-hold-forever sprint button of editions past (although, I have to admit that I still prefer the auto-sprint feature of Madden 11). And maybe the most welcome gameplay difference for me is opposing quarterbacks will pull the ball down, evade pressure and take sacks like their real-world counterparts, rather than standing tall in the pocket at all times, then magically throwing incomplete passes at the very last second once the pressure gets to them. 3) One downside for me is the CBS-centric animations and commentary team. It's not they the do that bad a job, but I'm just not a fan. I would personally prefer Madden to more closely mirror Fox, NBC or ESPN. There also seem to be fewer sound bytes to call players by name, which was a nice touch in prior games, especially once you start adding computer-generated rookies. Now, they simply refer to the average player as "player" and use generic language like "it looks like an upper body injury" even after the injury is diagnosed, which really set back the in-game analysis. 4) Navigating the menus and various interfaces can be a bit frustrating and exhausting. This is one of the areas where I prefer substance over style. Coming from the fast and responsive Madden NFL 11 navigation where I had basically developed muscle memory in my hands to get to where I need to be, this is the most jarring aspect of Madden NFL 25. Rather than simple menus and lists, the game has image panels for menus and relatively long load times between actions. Roster management and statistics are also less-than-intuitive, with an in-line indicator and yellow highlight bar that makes it more difficult to read what is on screen and compare numbers and attributes between players. All in all, these elements look good, but they are very dense, and the performance leaves something to be desired. 5) There's a ton to do. I haven't even touched most of the game modes, but it seems much more robust than previous Madden games, at least the ones I have played previously. In all fairness, I haven't explored Madden NFL 25 as much as I should have to write a thorough review, but I have played enough of what I have played prior to say that it was a good purchase. I can't speak to your reasons or interest level in considering Madden NFL 25, but I would give it a recommendation. I think there is a lot of value in the game for the $60 you would spend. I certainly expect to get my money's worth out of it - and may still be getting my money's worth out of it when the next Madden game is released. Good luck!

La Electronic Arts non sbaglia ancora, e con questo capitolo del gioco di Football Americano che celebra i 25 anni dal suo esordio, risulta essere un grande titolo, da avere assolutamente nella propria raccolta di giochi sportivi.

PS3のマッデンを25含め２作品プレイしました。 前回かった11と比較させていただきます。主にオンライン対戦をしています。 良くなった *グラウンド *ランプレーやランアフターキャッチなどの向上。 *脚が引っ掛かったり、バランスを崩したりリアルになった。 *パスがポンポン通らない。考えてプレーコールできるようになった。 悪くなった *パスをとったあとのタックルでドロップしすぎ *ファンブルが以上に多い。１試合で7回とかありました。 *どんなディフェンスでも通るプレーや絶対止められるキッキングなどがある。 *ディフェンスの方が難しいのは分かるがディフェンス贔屓されている。 以上です。オフェンスのビッグプレーがあまり起こらなくなり、現実的なスコアになるようになりましたが、プレーを通したときの快感を味わえないばかりかストレスがたまることもあります。自作に期待したいと思います。

for ps3 great game ultra graphics super cool get it a classic !!

Lo compré sin tener ni idea de cómo funcionaba el futbol americano. Mirando las reglas en Internet y con los tutoriales que incluye el juego conseguí un touchdown en mi primer partido, lo cual resultó muy emocionante. Ahora estoy enganchadísimo. Muy recomendable si te gustan los juegos de deportes y te cansan los Fifas o NBA2K. También compré el NHL 13 pero este Madden me estimula mucho más. El ritmo de partido es más lento pero sólo como acercamiento al deporte rey de EEUU ya merece la pena.

Si te gusta el fútbol americano este es tu juego, repasa la historia de la franquicia desde su creación en 1989. El juego solo está en inglés ya que en España no se edita este juego.
