Uh no.

I just don't have fun playing CPU games. $10 and then some grinding is more enjoyable for me personally.

Pretty solid praise from IGN.

I'm hoping it sticks. IGN also liked the game last year fwiw.

My biggest complaint about last year was how nooby the game was. I could be up 17-14 on a guy late in the game and I'll look back on the stats and wonder how he even got 14 points and see he had like 5 completions for 35 yards a piece. Too much of it was a game of chance; hit aggressive catch, odds are it's caught or it's tipped. It really killed the game for me. I have played every Madden since 03 (since I've been able to play video games) year round except for M15 (pass coverage was terrible) and M16.

I know it's not that I'm getting "older" because I can still play 2k year round. We'll see how this one holds up. I'm excited to get back into Winning and E-fights in Franchise mode

The secondary will knock a ball out of a receivers hands quick this year. Also, the receivers will drop them if you try some crazy stuff. Its pretty realistic when it comes to the passing game this year. I saw some amazing grabs down field though, but still its truly 50/50 footballs this year.

While they did give it a high score late year, you have to admit that graphics/presentation/gameplay were all much better than they had been prior to 16.

So the fact that they out out a similar review shows that EA is building on a solid foundation, and that is exciting.

I haven't bought Madden since 14 so may cave this year. I bought every Madden from 95 to 2014

I traded in Madden 16 to best buy yesterday to get the 25 bucks towards Madden 17. and with the Gamers club discount, the game will only cost me about 25 bucks with tax and everything. Not too bad.

EA sent two copies (each) to a bunch of MUT Rewards people.

I opened 6500 packs in MUT last year - so I have two copies.

Does Best Buy let you cancel (or return) a pre-order?

Sorry - out of town until Tuesday. My mom is flooded out. I had her put it in the PS4 so I could play via Remote Play.

No, but I did read that you can now edit names and attributes for drafted rookies this year. I don't think that was possible in previous games.

So if you draft a QB in Round 1, you can make him Deshaun Watson in-game.

Can you download draft classes online or anything like that? I'm sure someone will create the upcoming draft class.

You cannot download draft classes on Madden. This is the one thing I've always wanted.

No. You can't do draft classes. You can edit rookies after they're drafted, I believe. But you can load a class in like 2K.

I'm sure someone out there makes up rankings for them that you can copy. For those that are hardcore

Haven't heard anything, but given that it's EA sports, I would assume they'll take out useful features that everyone likes and replace them with shite like flourescent cleats and arm sleeves...
