So I caved and got Madden 15

I decided its been a while since I played a football game. Probably about 7-8 years. There's no other games I'm playing atm, so I decided to give Madden a try again and bought it for about 35 bucks on Ebay.

Right now I'm still getting used to the controls. Which btw, it's freaking ridiculous how many combinations of buttons you have to remember if you want to be great at this game. Most of any other game I've played.

The graphics are very generic. It looks like the graphics from when the PS3 first came out (that's what I have btw). Almost NFL2k5-ish. There is a lot they could've done here, but didn't. Even though I think GTA5 was overrated, even that game has better graphics than Madden.

I don't understand taking away season mode. Now you are forced to play as a player, coach, or owner. You can't just simply go into a season with your team and not worry about other crap.

The gaming AI and player movement looked a little improved. Still, they could've done better.

I do like playing as owner though, making the roster the way I want it.

Overall, Madden still doesn't care about it's users and still is putting out sub-par football games when they could've done much better. I play it still though because I bought it almost half priced and I do miss playing football games. Glad I never spent 60 bucks on this.

I still have mine for sale for $40 shipping included. Madden is like dressage. It started out with good intentions but has been so perverted by people that it takes so much work and studying to figure things out.

It really looks like they threw poo together and called it Madden 15. The layout is really weird. You can see jagged edges on the players and coaches. It is a very unpolished game.

Oh man I just realized a big reason why I quit madden in the first place. Sliders. Especially Auto-Sub sliders. I never understood why EA couldn't fix substitutions according to what team's actually do during games. I can never get these things right. My starters would be substituted after a few plays and only come back in for a couple. I couldn't get the right balance. Samething with gameday sliders. In the end, it annoyed me too much and I was fed up with Madden's bs that I decided to quit.

      Panthers WR Xavier Legette named potential trade candidate for 2026 offseason

      By frankw · Posted

      If you draft a guy who is healthy and has no concerns about that whatsoever and he goes out and tears his ACL in his first few games in the regular season on a physical play that's a freak accident. But when you trade up to draft an RB who is already rehabbing from a recent ACL tear and he spends the next several months continuing his rehab only to tear the same ACL again after less than a handful of regular season carries in a non contact circumstance that is no freak accident. That is a textbook example of why you do not do what we did. Particularly for what is now a plug and play position. And when you have the highest paid OL in the league over the next two years. None of that makes any logical sense. Legitimately it is and was some Scott Fitterer type foolishness. Now as for XL. The guy has not been committed to his craft. I think anyone with eyes on the situation can and would recognize that. However the warning signs were there. One season of legit production raw prospect that we knew would take time to develop etc. But Morgan and Bryce Young's own father were very high on him. I think in some capacity the reality of our limitation at QB is entering into the equation. Even TMac got a lot of flak over the course of his rookie season for not being able to haul in all of Bryce's passes. At the end of the day our fourth year QB also needs to do his part to maximize the talent we have available. As far as this year. Again. WR round 1 boils down to where are we going to get the touches for the rookie? That would require eating into not only our 8th overall picks touches but also our #2 WR whom oh yeah by the way was UNDRAFTED. I am happy to discuss WR prospects here. I was thrilled we invested what we did last year in TMac because it needed to be done and it made sense from all angles. But nowhere is it written in stone that you cannot draft a good or great WR outside of the first round. Except in the Panthers building apparently. That is not a good reflection on our scouts and front office let me tell ya. Because there's no way on this earth we are going to get back to relevancy and legitimate contender status if we can't pick some gems in the later rounds. Simple and plain.

      This is pretty accurate our offense needs more juice. I love Cooker but he’s not enough XL ummm we’ll see this year hopefully the third year WR thing hits him and he plays better but still not enough. Honestly we need look at the Eagles they just adds Wicks and Hollywood Brown to that core. That shows the level of talent needed to compete at a championship level this coming season. And this below is the real problem KC doesn’t seem to add that much to our offense. We Makai Lemon or defense at 19
