Post by: Smooth Groove on August 12, 2008, 01:53:16 AM: I wanna play Madden but it's gotta way too complicated. NBA2K on consoles and Winning Eleven PSP are the only sports sims that I play now.

Post by: cool breeze on August 12, 2008, 02:03:37 AM: First Madden I'm buying since 2004. First Football game I'm buying since 2005. The demo was really good.

Post by: The Fake Shemp on August 12, 2008, 02:06:43 AM: I haven't purchased Madden in years. I was a big fan of last year's All-Pro Football, which was lean on features, but just fun.

Madden is too fucking complicated nowadays. Fuck this noise. I am trading in my copy tomorrow.

Post by: cool breeze on August 12, 2008, 02:12:10 AM: Try the demo. It is less complicated than it was. They basically test you on what you are good, or what you suck at, then adjust the game accordingly. The bit of actual gameplay you try in the demo was a lot of fun for me, and the last 5 or so bored me.

Post by: The Fake Shemp on August 12, 2008, 02:21:47 AM: Fuck the demo, I'm playing the actual game.

This shit has too many options. I'm going to trade it in, get some XBL points and download Bionic Commando.

Then, when I play games like NBA Street or NBA Jam, or SSX, I kick all ass.

I feel the same way generally but I think EA did a lot to simplify (or at least de-retardedize, henceforth 'de-obfuscate') the controls and teach people how to play with 09. The adaptive difficulty is neat too.

Post by: BlueTsunami on August 12, 2008, 12:36:56 PM: When they added the Cone Vision shit, thats when things got fucked up. You have to not only press one set of buttons to have your QB focus on the player, you also have to press the button again to pass it to them. You can turn it off but that shit is totally like wtf.

Yeah, Wii version looks surprisingly not shit. It seems like they figured out how to handle games on the Wii. Very plain and clean graphics, make everything simple. All that kind of shit.

Nevermind. It was set on advanced for some reason. Intermediate makes it much better.
