Madden 25 Release tonight

[Mav]

Who is getting it?

I am picking mine up tomorrow morning from Best Buy, but my Xbox 360 GT is Maverick91579 if anyone wants to pound me.

I didn't play last year, and have been getting crushed by the computer on all madden.

Ill use the Browns.

Blew out the Titans last night after three close wins and a game I lost by 14. Nice that there's some natural variation in results.

I love how the defensive players will make plays on the ball like knocking it away. James-Michael Johnson is a beast for me on the game too. Thinkin bout starting him at LB instead of Jordan or Nico Johnson.

Cant wait to play the 49ers later, I had like 250 yards passing between my 4 qb's in the first game and 250 yards rushing between my 4 rb's.

Love this years game much more than last years, last years sucked imho.

Just took it to the house on a read option keeper with Alex Smith. From 30 yards out

That dude has to be pissed.

Ever been in a shootout that feels like a blowout? Just beat the Raiders like 42-31 or some shit but it never felt like it was in doubt.

Playing defense is impossible in this game. Every receiver runs free and simple curls have cornerbacks playing off their man 5 yards or more.
...so, yeah, this one is getting traded in fast. Really only got the game for the cheap Sunday Ticket.

Just played my first few games of Madden 25 with a buddy of mine. I had fun, but wouldn't buy it. That's the best way I can sum it up.

I have still been doing ok on D, but offense can be tough. I have just been screwing around with 5 minute quarters, but the scores are low.

Okay, running outside with JC is officially too easy. Broke the single game records for rushing yards and rushing TDs against Houston. That stretch play is hard to beat with somebody as fast as him. May need to tweak CPU linebacker ability a bit so it's not quite so money.

How long of quarters are you playing? I can get guys over a hundred on five's and still not get much done score wise. I also noticed that All-Pro and All-Madden do not seem much different.

7 minutes with accelerated clock. First few games were tight and relatively low-scoring, but now that I have a handle on the game, I'm scoring in bunches, primarily on the ground. I'd like to get the scores and difficulty back to where they were those first few games.

I need to add more time probably. Used Tampa Bay and Martin is fuggin awesome. I still didn't win by much.

Trying to get them perfect before the actual rosters drop tomorrow.

Hey Mav. A question I was hoping to get an answer on...

Xbox360

I'm guessing it is called offline co-op for connected franchise. (only owner mode?) *this would likely be fantasy drafted rosters for these teams*

On one 360 console, can two people create a team (1 per person)... say, in the same division. I would control KC and only KC in all season games played. A friend would play Oakland and all their season games. He would play against me with whatever team is on my KC schedule... and vice versa. We would just sim the other, non-KC/Oak games weekly.

Yes you can. Its just called offline connected careers.

You sure can.

Have fun with that.

All-Pro.

Traditionally, All-Madden has been way too hard for me to have fun with it. I think All-Pro is a good baseline difficulty level, but I gotta make some tweaks to bump it up a bit. Maybe I should do All-Madden, but I'd need good sliders for it to not feel impossible.
