Sports titles are my favorite type of video games. The graphics are fantastic and the game play is exciting. With all of the realistic game play comes a complex control system. Having the complex controls does diminish the fun of the game. This is not a pick up and play game and the loading times are longer. I buy this every year and will be buying it again next year.

Pretty much the same game, with a few tweaks here and there, along with new wording/description on things that were already there before. The game is still fun to play. At the moment lots of people are complaining about the huge amount of bugs/glitches in the game. But for me the only 2 things I've seen during game play is that sometimes a defender goes off screen then comes back onto the screen at fast forwarded speed. Second thing is that a player disappears into the stand and the camera is following the player talking about him. Other than that the games fine. I tried playing on All-Madden like I did with the previous versions, but turned it back down to All-Pro to get used to the timing of the game play because it seemed slower than previous versions. Calling audible routes for your receivers, you can no longer quickly change the routes on all receivers, there is an actual wait time now and you'll have to wait for the QB to get done with his animation/call to change another receivers route.

A Nice Reinvention

I have personally been disappointed with the past few iterations of Madden, but heard this one was revamped. It really is, the mechanics have been entirely reworked and feel much more natural than in the past few years. The depth of play option by position from qb throws to receiver catches is where gaming should be heading, you literally have over 15 options per receiver on placement and touch on the ball, then add in the multitude of receiving options, this is what gaming should be. The defense was also given the same upgrade with a myriad of options for all positions, letting Steel Curtains flex their muscle. The audible interface is much more friendly and streamlined. The game options thus far I have only tried franchise and fantasy draft. Both are deep and inviting. I have yet to play online but anticipate doing so soon so I can't comment on that. Overall, as someone who has been playing Madden for years, even competitively at times, this is the best Madden I have seen in a few years and I am happy with this purchase.

Madden NFL 16 has amazing graphics, game play, and features! New features include individual player controls for passing and catching which is an awesome addition to the Madden NFL game. From the franchise play, to Ultimate Team, to online play Madden 16 is one of the best Madden games yet!

Look. Anyone who has been playing EA games for the past years know these games will always have quirks. And people like me who just enjoy playing EA sports games head to head with friends. Also know that it really doesn't matter too much. Sure sometime playing the AI can be frustrating but hey that only accounts for 10% of my play with these series.

This is the first Madden I've bought in several years, I stopped getting them because I felt like the game almost played itself with the user just picking plays. That's definitely changed! Great game on both the offensive and defensive sides, great game mode choices, and awesome graphics!

New Madden for the Next Generation Consoles

This is the best Madden to date for the next generation consoles. The facial recognition is awesome, but even though the graphics are improved I still think there is room for improvement. Some of the features that makes this one stand out are the new catch mechanics and the draft championship mode. The new catch mechanics give you three options when going up for the ball that can impact the outcome of the reception. You can choose to go up aggressively for the ball, make a possession catch, or run after catching ball. All of which can have a positive or negative impact on the result of the play. Choose wisely. Next is the draft championship mode that is an alternative version of MUT mode. The major difference in draft championship mode is that you get to draft your players one by one out of a choice of three players at a time in order to build your team. Then you can take them to the field and compete. I actually enjoy this mode more than the MUT, but that's my opinion. My only disappointment is the hit stick is not as impactful. I get better hits by pressing the square button. However that may save me some money because when I use the hit stick I break more controllers.

EA Sports has done it again with all new features, outstanding graphics, and realistic gameplay. The all new receiving actions and qb throwing styles adds additional user-controlled elements to the game for a more authentic game experience. Must have for the 2015 season!

A Step Up from Last Year

Very much enjoying this game so far. The UI is pretty much the same but that's fine. If it ain't broke don't fix it. The new emphasis on passing really makes you feel like you have more control over the receivers. This is definitely a step of from last year's edition

The new Draft Mode is a fantastic way to shake up the game play in Madden, which has frankly been the same for a decade. Love the new mode, and find myself unable to stop playing. MUT is great, as it has been, and I'm very impressed with the graphics this year too.

After some decent but not great next gen versions of the game, this Madden delivers. I especially like the new passing button functions because they add extra control in the catching part of the passing game. Graphics are great and the game is fun to play again!

I thought the game play and graphics were pretty good. Mechanics seemed to be a little upgraded from the previous year. A little upset they rated the Cowboys 2 points higher then the Eagles but maybe they will fix that in an upcoming patch. Overall if you like Madden the go ahead and buy it, you won't be disappointed.

Madden 16 is next level. From the first time you play you immediately recognize the ultra improved graphics and player motion. It's not overly difficult to learn you can jump right in without any tutorials. Passing game is sick! This joint 5 stars off the rip!

Over the years of Madden NFL versions coming out I have enjoyed and laughed at the graphics at times but must say this is the best to date! Added controls over player function is more realistic and I really enjoy playing my favorite team against rivals!!

This game is a lot of fun especially with two people!
Get a friend and play your dream match up, or go online to face some fierce competition.
Build your own team with your own players chosen by you and make the perfect winning combination.
Really love this game right now! Way better than last years!

Yes, the new game modes and graphics are improved...but the commentary is still awful and untimely. The game is still ridden with glitches and errors. I honestly don't understand how EA gets away with delivering a faulty product EVERY YEAR.

Better than last year's edition but Receivers are a tad OP. Defense is still fun like last year just a bit more difficult with the new WR dynamics. I've found that playing the receiver is much easier than the ball as the wideouts make some pretty ridiculous catches if you're both playing the ball.

This has to be the best edition yet. From the offense side of the ball the added passing and catching mechanisms make for a fun time. As far as defense it's a bit more challenging however worth it when you make a big play. Kudos to EA Sports!!

Been playing Madden since '92. Thanks to the sale during Black Friday, picked this up for 30 bucks also.The graphics got better, but the game play is tougher. Offers tutorials for all levels of Madden gamers. The new features make the game quite interesting. A must have for true Madden fans.

What can you say it's Madden. I'm an old school Madden plan and it's probably the best one I've played in a long time. I actually stopped playing Madden for awhile until I gave this one a try. Awesome game. GREAT graphics and ease of play.
