Madden 13 Thread

[theFRANCHISE]

This game disgusts me.

I try to like it, but there's always something about it that makes me hate it. I'm trading it in.

For a game that held so much promise with its hype, it fell far too short to justify the $60 purchase.

I'm still making 60 yard field goals with Cundiff.

Just crazy.

I can't play it. There are so many different points at which it freezes it's unreal.

The new Madden team needs fired, now.

Depth Chart is one of them. It's crashed 3 times for me there when I'm making changes!

Wow. I guess the game really is broken.

[Corvus]

My buddy got his copy from gamefly a couple of days ago and told me the Ravens are beastly in it. He said he played a friend who was using the Pats, only won 28-14 but said he sacked Brady 7 times, hope thats a good sign for our real season, haha.

That said, still not getting this. All of the comments since I last posted in this thread confirm that I am still making the correct choice. Besides, been having too much fun with my "Fall of Cybertron" multiplayer and waiting on my pending pre-orders of Assassin's Creed III and Hitman: Absolution, I'll have enough to keep me occupied in my free time, along with of course the real season right around the corner.

Yep. Cundiff has been on fire for me. He's 3 for 3 on 50+ yard field goals this season. So much for being realistic.

I was almost tempted to get the game when I was at Dave & Busters earlier today. The game only costs 12,500 points to get it and I had like 14,000 points on my card. I thought I'm not giving up $60 to get it, so maybe it would be worth it but there is too much negative that I was able to resist and not get the game.

[XxSizzleXx]

Really do not know why they would take out fantasy draft, idiots. The gameplay is a bit better with the physics being the most improved. I friggen hate EA, grimey money grabbing chumps.

I've only been there once, when i was younger. About how much is 12,500 points worth?

I would say close to $60. So it would be like paying $60 for it.

Yeah too bad you can't make him a Punter like you could on Madden 12 and keep him and others from retiring.

Because Ray is still playing in 2012. It would be unrealistic that he retired when in real life he is still playing.

[AwakenTheDemon]

Let's see, first day of the season, 53 man rosters are set.... and no roster update. Good game.

Part of it is true. Yes, Roster Updates will be on Saturday, but for Play Now. Connected Careers Roster Update will be next week.

Yes but that is the old roster update. The new roster update for Week 1 for CC comes out next week. Online/Offline Play Now will have the Week 1 Roster Updates on Saturday.

Which is what I'm, sadly, looking for. But that brings me to my next point, having two separate roster updates is utterly ridiculous.

I don't understand that either!

[arnie_uk]

He's right, I mis read it, I thought the one coming out mid week was for people in a mid ONLINE cc which you can update this year, unlike last year, but only the online ones.

In fact jo is correct in saying for cc the new one is next week, and you have the choice of starting with 75 man roster or the current 53 roster and won't have to cut anyone.

Another reason I'm glad I didn't spend my $60 toward this game, offline folks got the shaft.. BIG TIME.

[T3hRaven]

If nothing else, I'm enjoying the Madden 13 marketing campaign. Paul Rudd and Ray Lewis are a winning combination.

[Pino]

Calvin Johnson is so great, he may not only break the Madden curse, I think he broke Madden itself and the hypnotic spell it has over gamers

[codizzle]

Soo glad I gave this game up a few years back.. I'll just stick with the real thing

flacco's 77 deep throw accuracy is really pissing me off
[/quote]

He was in the bottom four of the league in accuracy last season for throws past 20 yards. That stat is correct

[TreTheRaven]

I have thought about buying this game multiple times, including today, and then I come and read this thread, and that completely changes my mind.

Thank you for the constant updates on where the game has gone wrong.

Hey guys I was wondering if anyone was interested in joining the Connected Career league I am in. I am just trying to help the commish out by swapping in some active players with the non active ones. It is a DEFNSIVE PLAYERS ONLY league with 10 users so most of the teams are available.

Commish advances the league every 24 hours at midnight. If you are interested join up.

LEAGUE NAME IS - Player CC

This is for PS3
