I know this only concerns a select few of you, so if you weren't involved in the first conversation then leave this page.

I played the demo of that Backbreaker game that a few of you recommended. It was GOD AWFUL.

Offense:

The offense on this game was the bright spot, but still terrible. The controls were so confusing and the camera angle makes it seem like My Player mode on Madden. There was cool tackles, but that is about it. The controls overall were sketchy which was really frustrating.

Defense:

The defense was herendous. You can only be one player at a time (normal), but once again it is like My Player mode and your player is pretty much the only guy on the D that you can see. You can be rushing in on the D Line and all of a sudden the ball will be downfield. And, the second you change your guy you are in a completely different view w. another player. The controls are better than on offense, but still not good.

ST:

This might have been the best part of the game. FG's/XP's were cool and easy to kick. Returning punts/kicks was a b**ch.

The stadium is a giant arena about 20 story's high and the players look like cartoons. Oh yeah, and the teams are completely retarded bc they are made up. On team is even called the talons..WTF???

On a scale of one to ten this game would be about a 3.5

I predicted this. People bash Madden but I knew this game would be a flop. You can't expect amateur developers (aka, ones you have never heard of) to produce a great game. Great games are not the norm, they are the exception. Plus, their whole point was dynamic tackles in order to beat Madden. How about gameplay first?

I should've posted "this is gonna be a flop" in one of those Madden threads...

This is true.

I really doubt this though. They have forgot what makes a Football game exciting. I really really wish THQ could get there shot at it. They are beating EA in the dirt with there new UFC game.

Doubtful I have not played it yet but its getting great reviews. EA always has the hype but never lives up to it. They just own all the licensing rights so no one else has a chance.

First off, why would Madden "go all out" if that may be the last year of that game. Why waste so much money in development if all the "new" stuff they come up with won't continue. I also want to point out that if you really want a better Madden and they do continue with the series, you should go out and buy the backbreaker game as soon as it comes out. Why, you ask? Because Madden is a monopoly in the NFL football gaming industry and competition is the only way they will improve anything unless everyone stops buying the game.

      It is time to Consider the Likelihood of WR at #19

      By strato · Posted

      We are in a unique situation here. Just my opinion. Three things: Moton’s playing health has been gradually declining as he is aging, while his contract is a drag on the payroll.  Something will give with him sooner than later but I think 2026 could be it.  So.. need a right tackle by 2027. At the latest.    Icky’s individual situation is unique as well. They would have had an extension done by now if not for the injury. We only have him for this year. With no assurance he will ever be the same player.  It would be reckless just to assume. Now we have Walker for one year. And that is a major relief. Maybe he is the answer, but the team that knows him best let him go and it was cheap for us to sign him. So how much did they value him?    We look to be needing two tackles by 2027.  And have poo for depth this year as well. So anyway we could draft a guy for 2027 RT and groom him this year, and see how Icky does, and act as needed in 2027. Spread out filling the two holes over 2 years.    Then I remember, hey if Bryce doesn’t get a Lot more consistent do they extend him? Hoping not, if he isn’t really good.    So then we are looking at the 2027 draft which people say is gonna be loaded with QBs. If we need a LT and a QB what is the pick gonna get spent on?   Taking into account the recovery success rates cited here on the Icky surgery, you might want to plan for him to not be the same player. rather than assume he will be and get caught with your pants down.  It is a tough situation.    And factor in that it is critically important to protect this QB, always, but especially this year where it is said to be make or break. And how you might feel about that.    All of it points to a real possibility that these things converge in the negative, like Bruce sucks and Icky is not the same. In that case if you want to be assured of getting LT secured, the only place you can do that through the could be very well be 2026 1st round.     For me, I would like to err on the side of caution.  Cover for these outcomes. It wouldn’t be fun. Added benefit is if we do have a tackle go down this year we will have a guy there. Because I don’t know what we have now.

      Mike Kaye: “I would keep a pretty close eye on {KC Concepcion}.”

      I agree. In a perfect world I wouldn’t want to draft another WR, but in this draft it’s fine based on the value of who will be there at #19.  All of the top tier guys worth pick #19 at other positions of need will be long gone. Only exception is Dillon Thieneman, but he’s almost a shoe in for the Vikings as the Harrison Smith replacement. Some posters on here want to draft an OT just to check a box without realizing the concerns and risk that comes along with said player. Sounds like XL to me… desperately drafting need… KC is a pretty safe player.  Produced all 3 years in college and last year in the SEC vs a lot of top corners in this years draft. He single handily dropped the South Carolina CB Brandon Cisse’s draft stock with how bad he abused him.   Sometimes it’s best to try and hit a double instead of going for the home run. This draft screams “go for the double”. Esp in the first.

      Look at what the Bears have done with Caleb Williams, drafting playmaking WR's and TE's and making it easier for him to operate the offense. Conception is perfect for what the offense needs (speed and someone who can make defenders miss) and as today, April 11th, I think he's the pick @19
