Re: Oculus Rift

I think both virtual reality and augmented reality have huge potential. Right now augmented reality is very limited by FOV and most headsets are limited to 14 to 40 degrees which is way below where it needs to be if a truly immersive experience is to be realized. Oculus Rift has a much greater FOV b...

Re: Madden 25?

I am not looking forward to Madden 25 on next generation hardware. It will likely be the same game with better graphics but the same canned animations and legacy issues ported over for the third time. It is not really a terrible game though and I am sure some people will find some entertainment valu...

Re: Madden 25?

Madden sales are down year over year. It seems that EA is confused and cannot decide if they want a sim game or arcade and has no direction. This is a very popular brand that has great name recognition and despite this the sales are very disappointing. Sure they are great compared to average games b...

Re: Madden 25?

Hi everyone, it has been a long time since I last posted here. From the reviews and opinions it seems Madden is a decent game this year but still has legacy issues that have carried over for many generations. It is my hope for Madden fans that EA finally fixes some of these issues because the people...

Re: NFL Season 2010

Money cannot buy a cure for some chronic diseases and what good is money if you suffer cognitive impairment, chronic severe headaches, depression, impulse control loss? I know my post may seem extreme, but CTE is a bigtime problem in football. I bet if you suffered from ALS like my father did from p...

Re: NFL Season 2010

I bet Chronic Trumatic Encephalopathy (CTE) will eventually destroy the NFL. A very large percentage of NFL players probably already have this disease and do not know it. Many of them will die before age 50 and before that experience horrible symptoms like cognitive impairment, short term memory los...

Re: Tiger Woods 11 Discussion

I think TW 11 for the Wii is the best sports game I have played in the last five years. It is sad that the sales are so poor. It is a very good game and definitely worth buying.

Re: Backbreaker Preview - Natural Motion based football titl

The physics in Backbreaker are not perfect but still much better than Madden NFL 11. This is only the first edition and already has the best physics and tackling relative to all other video football games. Backbreaker certainly has many issues that must be fixed, though overall it is a great effort...

Re: Madden 11 Impressions

In ten years there might not be even one video football game. The trend has changed and people are less interested in video football games with each passing year. The biggest problem for Madden is that American football is only popular in USA so there is not much potential for growth internationally...

The Wii version of TW10 was much better than the XBOX 360 and PS3 version because the motion control is much closer to real golf than moving analog sticks. I can never go back to golf games with traditional analog controls again. The putting in Wii TW10 was great, but the chipping was a little too e...

IF the CPU team passing can be adjusted to be less accurate, the fun factor from playing this game could be very high. The laser guided CPU passing has been a problem in most video hockey games though since the beginning. Before the hockey games can take the next big step up, the puck and stick phys...

Madden is vastly improved this year, but there are a few problems that need to be addressed. Passes to the flats are a problem because the LBs fail to cover the RB or TE. It is a big problem in singleback and shotgun sets, but not in the weak and strong side sets. You can run the same play in the si...

Madden 10 is an improvement from last years Madden and moving in the right direction. I just cannot overlook the blocking logic and passes to the flats though. The Madden faithful finally have a game that is on par or better than last generation and is pretty solid overall. I am happy more people ar...

I gave up on Madden years ago. It will never be a good game again because the engine is too old and they cannot do much to improve even if they try . They have to scrap everything and start over. It is a tired franchise.
