When I played it, Percy Harvin got injured in the 2nd Quarter of the demo.
My body was not ready for such a realistic football simulator.

I must say that demo felt slick, what what Erron Fraudgers disappearing. No, he literally disappeared for 5 plays. When GB was on offense the QB was a shoe and his throwing arm and nothing else. I had to sack him to knock his whole body back into this dimension.

it's alright. if you haven't played since 2011 there are a few nice editions like connected career (basically online franchise mode) and a pseudo physics engine.
if you are playing madden for single player, you will not like it. jim nantz and phil simms are fucking awful with commentary, the "presentation" is mediocre (although an improvement since 2011) and it's just not fun to scheme against the CPU who magically knows if you've flipped your play and is easy to manipulate.
madden isn't worth the money unless you are going to play in an online franchise/connected careers with some of your pals

Ah okay. Ugh why Phil Simms? I still may get it, but won't play career. I usually just play a lot of 1v1 with my roommates and friends.

100 pages in on the thread and halfway through the preseason. We might make it to week 1 on just one thread.
helps that we don't have 6000 'you people' posts

We are better than the Texans.
Well, so much for Diehl just playing through his thumb injury...
Ralph Vacchiano ‏@RVacchianoNYDN
Giants announce that David Diehl had surgery on his thumb today. Out at least 6 weeks.
That's two O-line starters down right now for the Giants. Diehl has been incredibly ineffective the last few years and in the preseason as well, but at some point you just have to worry about how many bodies you have left. Getting Baas back for the start of the season so Boothe can move back to LG just got more important.

yeah if you play with your buddies it can be fun as well. the main improvement in the commentary is that it does not appear that simms/nantz give away your audibles anymore. last year if you were blitzing on defense, most of the time the dumbasses would say "WELP IT LOOKS LIKE THE DEFENSE IS BRINGING THE BLITZ!" before the play. shit like that.... but i didn't hear it in the demo
Cowboys right at 16, which is right about where I'd put them. The road to 8-8 has begun again.
Not according to the AP voters we are equal except we don't have murderers, STD carriers, a sexually confused QB or the Rutgers defense.

Yeah but you have Schoob and a hotel wrecking poo slinger.
Rather have a poo slinger than a petty Florida thug who kills people

At least he had a killer instinct, unlike any Texans player.
RG3 would redeem himself 100% in my eyes if he publicly denounced the nickname.

Say Hello to the new Bernard Pollard!
He tries that dirty shit with the Pats and I will hunt him down and slap his shit
The Steelers officially have the absolute worst luck when it comes to running back health. Man the only good aspect of that offense this year is going to be Brown.Welp. See you next year, Le'Veon.
Over/under 5 wins?
he will hit Brady because Brady will be wondering why there is a homeless man wandering around in the Texans secondary
I sure hope it's under. PEE PEE FOR LEE!

Its true.
But it was just a dumb comeback. I thought you turned a corner yesterday but I was wrong.

Good job, your pathetic franchise that has existed for less than half of my young life is good at beating up on a franchise that's been in the toilet for the past decade plus. Just keep those expectations at "beat the Dolphins" levels and you'll never be disappointed when they inevitably fold under the pressure of potentially achieving something that's actually meaningful like succeeding in the playoffs.
Also, don't forget to end the career of a Dolphins player or two along the way to make sure they never actually get good enough to beat your team.
Texans culture.
Good post!
Does every opinion/fact have to be a comeback?
With gata? yes, why yes it does.
Favorite moment of Madden 13 Phil Simms commentary:
"I don't know what the receiver was doing on that play. He's got to give the QB somebody to throw too. He caused that incompletion."
It was a spike to stop the clock.

i was playing the madden demo the other day and beating the ravens by 50-something and scored a final touchdown with about 2 minutes. then phil simms says "well that touchdown should about seal the deal. it was a close game throughout but now its over". alright phil.
i'm not a programmer but i can't imagine it's too hard to come up with a logic that says if score difference is greater than X for the majority of the game then don't generate this commentary. then again tiburon has no real reason to fix these things

Went to a farmers market today, there was a deli section
RIP Gata
Got myself one of those Gata sticks
Pretty sure I just ate his penis

It was just his foot, how bad could it be?Welp. See you next year, Le'Veon.
Doubt he is out all year. Still I was hoping for a stud at RB this year. I was also hoping for a dominant offensive line...
Never had a problem with the Lite or 3DSXL. And I played a lot of DS Lite.
Only time my hands ever cramped up was for Kid Icarus, but it was worth the pain!

LOL Bro your big toe looks like a penis!
Jaws is the worst qb analyst.
He seems to think that everyone other than Mark Sanchez is elite.
I am pretty sure that Jaws and Gruden watch qb highlights late at night while jerking each other off.
