No, I was going to get it for my 360, and decided I'd wait for the PC version, so that I can get updated rosters, patches etc.

It actually looks pretty good so I might get it for ps4 (because no games, still) and I read that the rosters can still be fixed if i'm not mistaken

Hey There Gamers! I Have an Issue. Searched Everywhere on the Google But Still Goal-Less Results.. So The Problem is When I Play A Game On Battery It Runs Fine Without Any Lag or Something But When I Put on the charger it starts lagging WTF.

EXAMPLE

NFS RIVALS (CHARGING) 10 FPS

Yeah, I'm sure they can, but much easier to get patches etc made by others. Especially with graphics etc

For some reason I've been getting into watching Madden 13 and Madden 25 games on youtube today. I'm not an NFL fan, don't even know any players, but I have a basic understanding of the game and think it would be fun to play if I get it cheap. I did a similar thing with EA's baseball game from 2003 or 2004 and with AFL 2006: learn the sport by playing the game and enjoy playing even though it's fucking boring to watch. I think I would enjoy a career mode as a QB.

To people who own the games, any recommendations or advice? I'll probably get one of those two. I don't care about the rosters or stats just about how fun it is to play and the create a player and career mode.

Do any of them come with explanations for what the plays actually do? I keep seeing 'blitz' this, 'sugar rush' that with these convoluted diagrams that I don't understand. I get the main gist of running, passing and shit but a game that was intuitive and one you can play as a beginner to the sport but also progress and enjoy as a connosieur would be grand.

I should get a favorite team, too, anyone got Jewish ties? There's no New York Foreskins as far as I know.

Sort of left-field but NBA 2k series my player mode is excellent

 

[Mandieta6]

Yeah, I heard. Might get it someday although basketball is less appealing. Which is the best one? Btw, anyone who plays Madden, what would I really be getting if I got the neweest game over 13?

 

[Mus]

2k12 is most peoples favourite I think

I've wanted to get into a Madden for quite a few years actually, just because I think it would give me a better understanding and appreciation of the sport.

AFL games are generally poor representations of the game itself, firstly because it's a hard game to replicate, but also because they're always such low budget games (relatively) and don't have annual editions to continually build on.

The "American" sports don't have these issues.

Oh really? I was going to get 2K14. I already have 12 from a few years ago, when I wanted to do the same thing with basketball, though I understand it, I more wanted to get into it to learn all the players etc.

They need national teams, I would love to be able to take Patty Mills, Aron Baynes, Dante Exum and Andrew Bogut to a world title! I would also like to build a proper full strength US National Team again - like the 92 & 96 Dream Teams were

I have 14 on PS4 and like it more than 12 and 13, but i'm the sort of person who gets sold by newer games and more polish

 

[Hisashi]

There's no PES for PS4 right? also my cousin told me that PS4 has no GTA V how sad I really wanted to play GTA specially on a PS4 because of next-gen.

If you only had to consider the actual gameplay and be a player mode, which is the best game?

 

[Hisashi]

@Az I know you were asking mus but just wanted to say that I've played all 3 of them and 14 is the best one specially the be a player mode. They had more interactions with other nba players in 2k14 also I love that part when Lebron starts teaching you stuff about basketball even though I rejected his offer.

 

[Mus]

14. But not by much if there's a significant price difference still

Dunno about PES but probably not, and GTA has a later release date I think end of this year but it will just be a port and not a different game like FIFA is

 

[Hisashi]

That's awesome then its cool if its just a port. I haven't really played the game yet in any console hahaha


I always had this dream that 2k will make a football game to destroy the FIFA series just like how they destroyed NBA Live with NBA 2k

If you're happy with it just being a port, why do you want it on PS4 because "it's next gen"?

Madden is a terrible representation of American football but if you can get over that it has it's fun factor. I imagine you're referring to current gen Madden, so don't expect much of a change from 13 to 25.

Also once you get the basics you can pretty much learn by doing or trial and error.
