At least that video was a good quality but nothing about that video excited me for next gen Madden. I am surprised they didn't re-shoot all the animations. They need work. The video just looked like a slightly prettier version of what we have right now.
I used to think porting was a good thing and I campaigned for it because I didn't want to take any steps backwards this generation. But I'd like to get a football game that looked and felt different and hopefully in a good way. That's not going to happen for this game imo.

And EA pulls the video due to negative reaction. The game is close to gold or has already gone gold! This is the game folks! If you are pulling videos because you are embarrassed with how it looks you might as well cancel it and work hard on getting it better for next year. Maybe the game has to be experienced to appreciate it. I don't know but this is not looking good for EA.
Edit: OS has a copy of the video that can still be viewed. People are wondering where the true step motion stuff went. One guy at E3 was really happy with it but isn't seeing it in the video.

Back up on youtube... If this is next gen consider me happy staying with current gen for awhile. I had a Syphon Filter flashback with those running animations.

I cannot access the video anywhere. EA must be petrified to release this game at this point.
You can also get the video here, along with some commentary on the situation.

Thanks for re-posting guys. Not too much there but it wasn't as bad as OS made it out to be. Same game slightly better graphics. Now they really need to just show us 10 mins of REAL footage... it's less tan a month until release on ps4!!!!
EA seems to be doing everything it can to avoid showing real footage. Look at that smart glass video, they move away from the game to the smart glass each time the ball is snapped (one time they show it from a distance). It is a month away and there are no competitors that might steal one of their ideas. They are getting lambasted the past few weeks over the quality of these ESPN videos and all EA has to respond with is "feel this" and "count all the blades of glass."
I guess the question is, "do you think Madden 25 on ps4 is worth ten dollars (if you purchased the ps3 version from best buy)?" I have the $60 credit but honestly at this point I'm not really sure if the grass and crowd is worth ten bucks. I can give them the benefit of the doubt on this release but the next Madden in August better be pretty darn impressive or else I would consider this series done.

I think that's the point. It's the same game with slightly better graphics when you look at the videos. For those that weren't happy with Madden it was disappointing. For some guys predicting Madden next gen would blow us away it was disappointing. For anyone trying to justify blowing $500 on next gen just to get the next gen Madden it's disappointing. At the very least the game won't take a step backwards which is what everyone was pissed off about this gen.
Did any TGT guys ever get a chance to see next gen NCAA Football?
I think if you enjoy Madden, it's not a big deal to spend another $10 to upgrade.
If you're buying a new console JUST for it, probably not the best idea.
I'm not getting the PS4 just to play Madden. I plan on Battlefield, FIFA, NBA, and maybe another title since Watch_Dogs is delayed. Then in 2014, Watch_Dogs, Destiny, just to name a few.
I thought the idea of MUT being able to be carried over was ho-hum news, but I've been playing the shit out of MUT this year. So I'm kind of excited for that to carry over and play on the next gen. Not sure if the collections reset or not. Kinda hope they do so I can re-do them, and I get some bonus packs for the ones I finished on the PS3.
The dude abides.
