Came out yesterday, I'd recommend it to any NFL fans, its certainly the best installment in the series so far. The only gripe I have is that when you want to play online you're more often than not going to end up playing someone from America and there is usually a hell of a lot of lag which makes the likes of Ultimate Team unplayable.

I only get it for the Connected Franchise mode anyway, I started one up with the Bears but I wish I hadn't now: they're proper shit and with QB Jay Cutler I have already thrown twice as many interceptions as touch down passes after only three games.
 


I'm really enjoying this. Find draft champions on ultimate team addictive. Some ofnfhdnlegendsof the legends you get to with are awesome

Haven't decided which team I want to franchise with yet!
 
Absolutely loving this at the minute, big improvement on last year. Still haven't touched Franchise mode yet, can't stop playing Draft Champions.

Really good game. Don't get that much lag tbh. Franchise is fun, play as the Raiders on all Madden level and it makes SAFCs problems pale in comparison.

You play on All-Madden? Just how hard is that? :lol: I play on the 2nd easiest and struggled at times with the Cowboys, finished with a 12 and 4 record and won the Super Bowl but with some difficulty.

Think there is a bug with re-signing players to new contracts, most won't accept any offer you put in front of them even if it's three times as much as their "desired contract". EA need to get a patch out for this asap.

Its tough. You play it for the long haul to build a decent team. On Madden 15 got to the play offs four times but ultimately got spanked. Won on all pro but like a challenge.

Might try it myself eventually, just guna keep on with this Dallas game for a little while till I get properly used to it.

Had my first draft, it's way better than previous versions with the combine reports etc... Miles better than fifa this.
 
Anyone playing ultimate team?

Building a short pass offense, run stuff defense style team. Enjoying the weekly challenges etc, managed to make a fair few coins on the Cowboys win and Romo over 300 yards combo!

I've been playing some ultimate team when I have had chance, really enjoying it. This years madden is a big improvement on last years
 
Had the trial and just played the 'Be a Pro' mode QB for the Buccaneers. Tempted to get the full game but with NHL purchased and FIFA on the horizon don't know how much time I'd spend on it.

How you finding NHL? Hearing it is an improvement on the bare bones of a game last year...

It's really good everything they gutted last year is back in. All the modes are there, simming between shifts on BAP. Really enjoying it as I haven't played any after binning 15 within a week of launch.
 
Live the life on NHL 14 PS3 was class, NHL 15 was dogshit and I only paid about £15 when it was on sale. Hope the new one is good.

No life living in 16 sadly, starting in the minors and simming between shifts are back but there's no off ice shenanigans (interviews/endorsements etc) . It's good that your stat development is linked to what you do on ice so there's no risk of wasting XP on useless attributes. Overall I'm really enjoying it.

Good to hear mate, always loved the games...even last years even though it was very much bare bones, the gameplay was still excellent. Will pick this up soon, have too many games on the go and not enough time.

That's good to hear. That and FIFA this month then. Still liking Madden as well. Is it still fashionable to slag off EA?
 
I bought Madden 16 not knowing a lot about the NFL and I am really enjoying it. Havent played online yet as I am getting used to the buttons and rules more than anything. Looking forward to playing online like.
