    Anyone else getting hyped for it? I just preordered at BestBuy and got the Ultimate Edition, you get like 30 packs and a rookie pack for Ultimate Team. Never played that before but a few friends were saying that they only but the game for that mode. Anyway, I was wondering if anyone would want to play when it does come out? I usually only play the connected careers mode so I'm looking to get more out of the game.

    I always get hyped for Madden but last year I didn't even play it that much.

    The thing that blows my mind about a game like that is some of the glaring flaws in gameplay that make it past test. IE (last year) difficulty of tackling and then the pass protection on the outside of the pocket. I guess you can alter it a bit with the sliders.


    I heard they addressed both of these things from a kid at work so it could be good but I have not researched it much.

    This is sort of Madden related, but is there any reason to buy EA games anymore with the EA Access services on Xbox One? Just started my subscription last week and waiting for the "early access" for Madden 15 in a few days

    Madden was classic in years 04 and 05 on ps2....ever since then the gameplay has been weak.

    What a coincidence ... those were the last years of having competition for EA.

    I barely even played my last copy I bought. But the included Sunday Ticket was great.

    If they did that deal again, I'd buy it.

    I buy the game every other year and this is my year to actually buy it.

    What exactly is the difference between the regular and ultimate edition? As a casual player (who doesn't play online), is it worth buying the "ultimate" edition?

    OT: No NCAA this year? I was actually looking forward to buying that this year as well.

    Vaporware....lol. When they actually set a date........talk to me. BTW...this is a Madden thread.

    Everyone is pissed about the 6 hour trial EA pulled with EA Access. Especially when the 360/PS3 have Season Ticket still....and 3 days of Early Access. That trial starts Thursday. I wouldn't be surprised if EA extends it....because of the bait and switch they pulled with EA Access.

    NCAA is dead isn't it? Because they don't pay the student athletes....NCAA football....RIP.


    Side note....funny commercial, but man that zoom in that video....and fake 7min long by repeating the video....I can't stand videos like that on youtube.

    I remember buying NFL 2K5 for only $20 on my original Xbox. That was an excellent product, at any price. NFL games have suffered ever since and I probably won't buy one for quote some time.

    Unfortunately it seems no one knows. I've tried looking up info for the last gen versions (PS3, 360) and you can't find anything other than for the new systems. Only thing I see are people assuming all the new features will be in the old systems as well. SIGH!

    I thought it played relatively well last year. Not great, but it improved from the year or two previous. Just some hiccups with online franchise that annoyed me.
