I've given this some thought recently and I just don't see any reason why your "average" NCAA fan (like myself) should buy Madden 15.
Here are (some of) my reasons:
- There seems to be ZERO focus/emphasis on improving the franchise experience which is my #1 gameplay mode
- I only play MUT for the trophies and found it to be quite boring honestly as I had to play nothing but randoms and guys have that have teams of nothing but 99 OVRs
- I don't have a NFL team that I "root" for
- I think the college game is better than the NFL game due to varying styles of play
- I enjoy recruiting over the draft
- I enjoy the Coaching Carousel building up from an OC/DC of a small school to HC at a big school - that isn't offered at all in madden
- I don't see many gameplay improvements (and just generally do not believe that the defense is improved of if it is they will F it up when they patch it due to complaints from the casuals that its too hard to score)
- There are too many better games to spend my time/money with
- There is always GameFly
Thoughts? Agree/Disagree? EA hasn't even tempted me (or even made an effort) to my knowledge to convince a NCAA "only" guy (like myself) that Madden is worth it. It just feels like EA is taking "us" for granted saying well its the only football game in town take it or leave it.
