Is Madden 15 a reason to upgrade your system?

[i3man]

For those of us wiith PS3/XB360s, is Madden 15 a reason to upgrade a system? I'd hate to buy M15 for PS3 and a month later wish I had bought the PS4. Anyone seen a PS4/Madden bundle similar to the XB1 bundle?

Re: Is Madden 15 a reason to upgrade your system?

Just went over the fence to read some posts and it sounds really good...I'm feeling system envy now. There was a comment that M15 on XB1/PS4 makes you feel like you're playing the "other" football game and I take that to be a really good thing because many still think the "other" game was far better.

I'm not locked into one system so the XB1/Madden bundle is sounding pretty attractive. I don't know how others feel but for me the $299 price point is a lot more palatable than the $399 price point. Since Madden 15 and The Golf Club would be only games I buy I'm just not sure a new system warrants that.

Simple answer: It doesn't sound like it at this point.

I upgraded to ps3 because of Madden. It was awful. I barely played it. Madden 08 on ps2 was miles better than ps3. This year I'm gonna wait til next year to upgrade.

If Madden is the only reason I'd ask if it's worth $400 to you for just that.You know your own financial situation that you have to weigh.Are you an avid videogamer other than Madden?If you just like sports games it's debatable whether there's that much of an upgrade over the last Gen versions at this point for most of the other sports.

M15 is the real deal on X1

Not for me...maybe across the board "10 out of 10" reviews for M15 would have made me think about upgrading. I'll still check out the game soon via my one friend who only plays/purchases the Madden and Halo entries (and has an X-Bone) and gets Madden every year on launch. Where as I pour over reviews, and usually wait for the winter price drop. Done this the past few years regarding Madden. Last one I bought at launch was M10.

Plus I'm still waiting for that must have "console seller game" that Halo was for the OG X-Box and Grand Theft Auto 2 was for PS2 years ago. Those two games got me to buy those consoles. The Last Of Us Redux for PS4 is tempting as I kind of want to get another Playstation system again since I never dove into PS3, and moved past Halo years ago.

However, if Destiny is awesome with stellar reviews, I'll purchase a new system for that one. But so far, almost one year in, it seems no Next Gen games on the new systems seem like a "must own console seller" IMO yet.

No, franchise sim stats are still unrealistic. Not getting my money.

where did you see this comparison made. I havent seen this in any of the comments or reviews.
If I did see this mentioned more than once Id make the upgrade.

There were people saying that about the last couple Maddens.I haven't bought one since '12 but can say that the little I played the last couple versions,they felt like slightly enhanced Madden games for game play but not like the 'other game'.'.

The thing that ultimately keeps me from biting is the growing list of bugs shortly after the game comes out.Some you can live with and some cry out for a patch before you want to bother.If and when they get around to patching these,you are getting to the point of not even caring much anymore.The past couple of years have been worse with bugs then ever before since they seem to coincide with the change to connected career/franchise.

Not as a pre order for me. The first few PS3 Maddens were super clunky and made me regret jumping to a PS3 just for madden. I'd want to test it out first and make sure I know what I'm getting.

Apropos of nothing, The Last of Us is really, really good. It alone sold me on a PS3.

Thats bunch of non sense , i played madden 09, madden 10 , madden 11 skipped madden 12 and 13 and bought 25 and it felt like completely new game because it was a completely different game even for those who played 12 or and 13 .


As for the for question by OP , not to me . I watched a lot of footage of next gen madden 15 and im not impressed at all , graphics are far from great , actually to me they look worse than what they looked like on madden 25 on next gen , ball carrier running animation is atrociously bad , physics are pretty bad as players can change directions instantly without being slowed down too much , well i could go on and on about how unimpressive madden 15 looks , even more so when you think about how its a next gen game and its year 2014 ... the consoles have amazing possibilities and somehow ea makes it actually possible for you to still look back at a game made 7-8 years ago for ps3/xbox 360 and think to yourself "oh wow , nfl (apf) 2k8 kinda feels like a better game than current madden.

Ugh I wanna but Xbox Ones aren't worth the price tag and I've played xbox all my life so converting to PS4 now would be odd
