Whats the verdict on it? Is anything much improved since 15. I still have 15 and play it a lot. It is easy to play career/franchise mode while the 16 month old is still awake. The new passing feature looks good/different, not sure which yet. I read that they are improving scouting and have draft day trades, etc.

thanks for the input.

Not out for another two weeks.

-DB/WR interaction seems to be greatly improved.
-Faces and lighting looks really good.
-Scouting/Draft has been overhauled
-New fantasy football type online mode, different than MUT

I'll be getting it, gotten every Madden since Dante Culpepper was on the cover

I am thinking of it getting pretty hard now. I work the weekend before it comes out so I can take two days off that next week. Thinking of taking tues/thurs off to play madden

The DB/WR interactions look great.

Also player movements look more life like to me as well.

Looks like the same exact game with a few minor tweaks in gameplay. As usual, EA failed to improve the presentation. I heard you still can't edit rosters or draft classes in CFM. I'll pass.

If people would stop buying the freaking game they would. I feel like people complain about it but buy the game every year.

Because the general population would rather play an incomplete game than no game at all.

That's never going to change. This can also be applied to people who preorder. And reddit has been hammering that concept lately

No they wouldn't. EA has enough money to keep buying the rights and the NFL doesn't give a flying frick about Madden sales.

EA would quit buying the rights if they started losing money. Either that or they'd fix the series so people would start buying again.

I just wish someone would put out a game with only an NFLPA license (or even completely randomized), with an easy method of customizing. The fans could crowdsource the conversion to NFL teams and players.

Don't know if you guys already know but there's a deal at Bestbuy for Gamers Club Unlocked Members to where you can get 30 dollars towards Madden 16 when you trade in 15 towards it. Plus if you pre order you can get a $10 Certificate 2 weeks after you purchase it.

Haven't played madden in probably five years. Thinking about picking it up this year. Has anything drastically changes or improved since then?

I still have no idea why they took out all of the My Career stuff from 2008. You could go to the combine, run a 40 and other things to improve your draft stock and gain XP. For whatever reason though EA took all of that out.

I quit playing when they got rid of franchise mode and replaced it with connected career bullshite.

It's the only football video game we have. I didn't really care too much for the Madden series until the NCAA Football series was discontinued.

2012 was the last really good one....You could edit the player's attributes because some of the players get screwed and some get way too much credit, and positions could be changed as well.......Also the level of difficulty didn't go from a 40-0 win to 35-14L, they had an in between that would allow for close games, win or lose......i bought 2012, skipped 2013 and 2014, bought 2015 and will likely buy 2016 but I just wish they would stop taking options out of the game like that, just seems arse backwards to me
