    I purchased this as it is now a year old and even though you really canot play online anymore I purchased it for my very young grand kids to learn to play the game so when they are ready to handle future editions they will have the skills to compete. the graphics are wonderful and game play good but I played all the originals so I am biased and slanted towards them as some of the new games they make some of the plays that are impossible in real life work. Good for what it is.

    Really enjoying this version of madden I think it's the most realistic one up to date. I really enjoy the running game passing game has been improved defense also has been tweaked. I just really enjoy the competitive games with realism that you get against the computer. I'm going to try the online soon I haven't tried yet but I will down the line but right now really into playing franchise. I definitely recommend this game for anybody that really enjoys football and wants a realistic simulation.

    My son plays this game daily. Always pitting The Pittsburgh Steelers against the Browns. He loves the Steelers and he loves winning new players. The graphics are just so amazing from what they were on Xbox with previous versions. Only thing my son didn't like was Tom Brady on the cover. He took the cover off and threw it in a box.

    Though I've seen a lot more fumbles than years past I know EA will eventually patch it. Madden continues to dominate sport gaming with deeper game modes, better graphics and a more controlled offensive system. Amazing game.

    I am not very good at the newer style of sports games but they are so much fun. Last time I played a Madden game was on my friend's PS2. So, yeah, I took the tutorial/training first to stand a chance. I got a few touchdowns and gosh darn it I suck at field goals. I mean BADLY. Anyway, I haven't won a game yet but I will do my darndest. LOL It's all good. There is nothing wrong with this game. It's fun and it's good. I just have to get better.

    Madden 17 is a significant improvement over Madden 16. The graphics are a little better, but the game play is noticeably improved from last year's edition. Commentary has gotten better, too.

    So madden 17 For anyone who wants the perfect Madden experience grab a copy of Madden 16. This was a perfect balance of everything great you want in a football game. From graphics, gameplay, player face-presentation, etc. Then comes the big bomb in Madden 17 the KICKING GAME!!!!!!!!! The fact that you can miss a 29 yrd field goal is besides me. When was the last time, I lost game to just outright missing easy kicks with a horrific new kicking meter??????? Maybe since 92? This game also went backwards as far as player likeness they look horrible. Yet, last year they looked great? In addition, the sideline now look like Madden 15 instead of 17? Yes, that's not a typo the sideline looks similar to Madden 15 instead of the nice new sidelines they added in Madden16. Overall besides the Color Rush uniforms and new rookie class Madden 17 does not in any way shape or form hold up to its predecessor and has actually taken a step back.

    I recommend to every football fan of who ever played a video game in their life. Madden 17 is for the ultimate gamer who goes all out beyond for the love of the game. With all of it's awesome features a d updates it feel as if you're inside of the game with every move, twist, turn, and hit being felt. With the playoffs closing in now is the perfect time to get in game mode and see if you can bring your favorite football team to the "SHIP". Madden 17 allows you to being your A game like never before. Now let art imitate life and see if you can bring the 2 teams that will appear in this year's super bowl through the playoffs.

    If you're an NFL fan, you have to have the latest Madden just so you have the latest roster. This game is indeed similar to last year's (I mean, how much can they change?), but it does have added features like better ability to block FGs and punts (non-existent in previous games), speed and precision running moves, and better ability to break tackles. The kicking changes are a little wonky (3-button press instead of an analog stick), but I do like how I can put back-spin on the ball now. Overall it's a worthy upgrade. You can definitely pick this up for less than full price, so it's worth a buy.

    I am new to the gaming console world, so this was my first experience with the Madden world. I am impressed by the level of detail the game gets into regarding your ability to build and maintain your franchise. For a beginner like me, it is almost overwhelming, and I wish there were a little more in the way of tutorials. That being said, the game is a joy to play, and I love the graphics and sounds of the game. Happily, I have been able to make my Madden version of my team more successful than my real team so far this season! Have fun playing, I know I will.

    If you are a Madden player then you'll be happy about this years game. The new precision controls allow for more control over the player. The defense seems to be way better as timed hard hits cause more realistic drops. The added zone defense positions create a better experience and allow you to defend against players that exploited this loophole in previous versions. Another impressive thing is a weekly downloaded file gives you updated weekly commentary from the broadcasters that talk about realtime NFL news related to the teams.

    First return to the franchise in a number of years, and EA has done an excellent job keeping pace. Graphics are fantastic, updates timely, and difficulty is fully scalable to the individual user. Particularly enjoy the ability to actually play defense, as the franchise I recall was a barrage of shootouts on a consistent basis. Still delving into Ultimate Team mode, but impressed with what I am seeing so far. I only hope they continue to support the 16 version beyond the SuperBowl

    Can't help but buy this game every year. Used to be into a lot more but have no only occasionally found time to play it. More often than not I would say it gets better every year.

    I have played madden for years and decided to get my first for the ps4. I like the overall play of the game. Very similar to other years. I only gave it 4 because I’m not a fan of the icing the kicker feature. I think it was not thought out well on EA’s part.
