Good review, Nero. I love how you give an honest review and a really in-depth detailed one at that. It seems as though everyone else is either biased or don't really go into detail as to exactly what they don't like and wish was better in the game. Keep it up bro!
Nice review. How would you describe the Franchise mode's improvements to the draft and simming through games? I remember from Madden 13 that the draft was a very slow process and you could not sim through 16 games at once
You're lucky if you're on next gen, if you're on the 360 or PS3 it is basically a remake but worse in my opinion. They didn't put any effort into the entire game.
I hate how in my player the announcers don't even recognize your player they just call u but your number or say whatever position you are so it's not even like an immersive career
It's nice to see a COD youtuber play games in other genres! nice video! I'm personally having a lot of fun with madden 15. Even though madden is still years behind the presentation make a huge difference. I recently watched the NHL 15 gameplay with NBC presentation and it is mind blowing!! if EA can make that game look that amazing whats holding madden back?
I agree 100% on the my player mode. Previous maddens were better. I was so disappointed.That's the reason why I bought this game. It was a waste of 60 dollars. Do you guys think there will be an update that will make it better?
I totally disagree with this guy. I'm a big fan of NFL2K series, and this Madden 15 is the closest thing to 2K ever. I have Madden 25, and I'm sorry, this blows it out of the water. I think "real" Madden fanboys will not like the changes in this game, because they are accustomed to getting spoonfuls of crap every year by EA with the crappy roster update. This is no roster update ladies and gents, this is NFL2k "Light", probably a few years behind what 2k would have if they were still able to make NFL games, but light years ahead of ALL previous Maddens. I welcome these changes with open arms
I bought this because it was on sale for 30 dollars. Having not played Madden since Sega Genesis days, I had high hopes. The load times are fucking ridiculous. For a PS4, this is unacceptable. That coupled with the fact that I cannot figure out how to skip FMV screens like Seahawks vs Panthers 4th quarter puts this game on my shit list. If this is considered awesome, I'd hate to see what the predecessors look like
I really don't understand how EA can ignore the majority of fans year in and year out. The most common thing you hear every year is how (exactly like you said) it's the same game with a few added gemmicks. I pray for the day that 2k can breath life back in NFL video games. Seriously, same commentary? That's such an easy detail to change but makes a world of difference in gameplay. I really hate hearing the EXACT same sound bite from years passed. And for god sake, revamp the my player mode. How can they make the NCAA my player mode so much fun and shit all over Madden? And another small detail is the same 8 fans in the stadiums. Come on man. That's 1st gen shit right there. They don't care. They make millions every year and put very little work into a product. It's really sad. But that's what happens when you have a monopoly over the industry. When all is said and done, we're all going to buy it cause we don't have any other options and we love football games, but don't do your fans like that. Give us a product that's WORTH the $64.95 and stop trying to suck more money out of us with gimmicky "Ultimate Team" garbage. For once, I would love to have my excitement and anticipation for a new Madden be met with something other than a severe let down when I play it. That's my rant. I know a lot of you feel the same, and there's nothing we can do but wait for EA to change their ways or wait for the day the license expires so 2k can bring us a quality product.
I have madden 8 and its SO FRICKIN AWESOME! it might be old but its awesome and its the only one I have but when I get my next madden game which one should I get?
The D lines are overpowered especially when passing. A person I'll Aldon Smith can blow up a passing play in like a sec and 1/2. Other than that is game is the same as last yr. Can't wait till the EA / NFL exclusivity deal runs out.
I like playing sport games amd cod type game and i dont think people care about a map when it comes to sports, i think they like having the experience of playing the sport
The reason why u can call plays at any position when u are on the field is because people complained about not being able to do that in previous maddens. It is a stupid feature but people asked for it so u cant blame ea really.
I'm not a conspiracy theorist but I wonder if EA decides to leave something like my player mode crappy because they want people to focus on Ultimate Team, which is where they make a lot of money. To me, it makes sense. Look at 2K14, the biggest mode of the entire 2K series is MyPlayer mode, which won't draw much money in (I skipped 2k14 but I am pretty sure that you improve your player with VC that is purchasable, but you can certainly go without it).
I wish the people at 2k who made the mycareer could make the career mode for madden 15... and what happened to being able to transfer your NCAA football player to madden??? Career mode is the reason I like madden, but I don't know now
You're actually playing "Connected Careers" and it's not any form of a franchise mode because you control nothing outside of your own player. Don't try to correct the person that got the game a week early, j/s :)
Also Nero, I sent you a message for a link to my kem strike for your kem Saturday series, i left a comment because I know it doesn't come up with a notification when anyone gets an inbox!:)
I get different Dev groups make the different titles even under the same company but it blows my mind how good RTG in NCAA was n then how shitty the be a Superstar mode is in Madden
NerosCinema ok so here's a question. Everyone (including myself) was pretty upset about EA Access having timed trials because they weren't upfront about it. Do you think that if they were to put a remastered version of the last NCAA in the vault along with other titles that were on last Gen, that it would then become a pretty good deal? I think it kinda would but that's just my opinion
It's true. The NFL2K series (if it were still around) would probably have a My Player mode similar to NBA2K by this point. NFL2K had us in our own customizable mansion back in 2005.
If it wasn't my honest opinion why would I be shitting all over my player made and the lack of innovation? EA doesn't pay for people's opinions, they just pay us to show their game. I'm allowed to say whatever I want about their games.
The graphics are passable. Still not next-gen, but okay. A much different team made UFC; They're still EA Sports, but a different studio. EA Tiburon makes Madden NFL, while UFC is from the creators of Fight Night, which has always had amazing graphics, even FN: Round 2 on the original Xbox.
slvrcobra1337 Makes sense. Also I figured Madden wasn't truly next gen because the game is also on last gen consoles. While UFC was specifically made for the PS4 and X1. Hopefully we will get a true next gen Madden soon because even though the game looks good it still seems outdated.
Look here buddy...you didn't talk about gameplay, you didn't talk about franchise mode, you didn't talk about the ability to upgrade your players during franchise mode, this video was an 13min bashing of My Player mode...that a hand full of people plays. You didn't talk about online play, you didn't talk about the off season in franchise mode, you hardly mentioned franchise mode. You spend 13mins of my life that I can't get back talking about My Player! My player?!?! You frickin kidding me? My Player!?!?
Nice review. I think Madden 04 was last one I bought. Guess I'm going to the midnight launch for this one tonight. You kinda made me less excited. I don't understand why features don't carry over from past maddens. And why there really is no push to make the game better and more realistic. They could do it, but like you said, they bought out the rights to the NFL, which is total bullshit.
My player you can only control your player. In Franchise you can control either the coach or the owner. Coach controls most aspects of the team, while owner controls literally everything even down to how much hotdogs cost at your stadium.
Madden 25 was trash and this is from someone echinus great at the game and had every one on 360 and the first one I ever sold was 25 it was garbage if they did to fix the passing in this game it will not grace my console
Complete waste of money I got mine at 50% off and I still wish I had my money back. Best way to play defece is to set down the controler and watch. You are expected to pay hundreds of dorllars to get good players, this is a complete waste DO NOT BUY.
Where is online team play? Like to play with friends on your same team.....why wouldn't they add communities in this trash game? No team play? C'mon EA
Good review, Nero. I love how you give an honest review and a really in-depth detailed one at that. It seems as though everyone else is either biased or don't really go into detail as to exactly what they don't like and wish was better in the game. Keep it up bro!
Glad you found it helpful man!
I completely agree. My player mode used to be love and life. Madden 13 was the first to ruin it.
My player madden 08 GameCube loved how u lived in a house, get tattoos & get haircut. That's what they need to go back to.
Nero is love Nero is life
Nice review. How would you describe the Franchise mode's improvements to the draft and simming through games? I remember from Madden 13 that the draft was a very slow process and you could not sim through 16 games at once
You're lucky if you're on next gen, if you're on the 360 or PS3 it is basically a remake but worse in my opinion. They didn't put any effort into the entire game.
I hate how in my player the announcers don't even recognize your player they just call u but your number or say whatever position you are so it's not even like an immersive career
Nice review, had no clue you actually played madden. Do you enjoy nba video games too?
Yeah
Neros the next chris smoove😂^
What about NHL 15? Do you think you will try that?
april showers is the best intro song and always will be!!
It's nice to see a COD youtuber play games in other genres! nice video! I'm personally having a lot of fun with madden 15. Even though madden is still years behind the presentation make a huge difference. I recently watched the NHL 15 gameplay with NBC presentation and it is mind blowing!! if EA can make that game look that amazing whats holding madden back?
Nero did you play the superstar mode in I think 09? And also will you play a nba 2k15 myplayer series on your lets play channel? Thatd be really cool
I agree 100% on the my player mode. Previous maddens were better. I was so disappointed.That's the reason why I bought this game. It was a waste of 60 dollars. Do you guys think there will be an update that will make it better?
RIP my player mode, but ill get it for the franchise mode :D. Thanks for the review, Nero!
I totally disagree with this guy. I'm a big fan of NFL2K series, and this Madden 15 is the closest thing to 2K ever. I have Madden 25, and I'm sorry, this blows it out of the water.

I welcome these changes with open arms
Im glad you like the browns, now i can watch all of your madden vids because i like the browns
Good review, thanks for your honesty.
Nice nice review. Guess aint gonna be getting it this year myplayer mode the same (boring thing).
Great video keep up the good work
Glad you enjoyed!
Great review I'll subscribe brah
Nice review! My player is really fun for me. I'm a free safety. Defense is so much better for my player
Yesss, the old my player mode on the ps2 was sooooo much better. I thought I was the only one who missed that mode lol
How do you feel the AFC North is going to work out and what are your super bowl predictions?
Nero what's your least favorite team in the AFC North? (I'm a Bengals fan btw)
I bought this because it was on sale for 30 dollars. Having not played Madden since Sega Genesis days, I had high hopes. The load times are fucking ridiculous. For a PS4, this is unacceptable. That coupled with the fact that I cannot figure out how to skip FMV screens like Seahawks vs Panthers 4th quarter puts this game on my shit list. If this is considered awesome, I'd hate to see what the predecessors look like
Westie uses the same intro. I really like!
It*

Great review, I definitely agree. Madden is essentially the same every year. But you're not not gonna get it so that's that.
Basically how it works lol
nice review mate. thank you for making me my choice easier! bless
How are the player stats for non-user controlled teams? Can you save in the middle of a game yet?
Funny cod is called the same game but this is literally the same game with a slight graphical upgrade
Yeah, but atleast CoD gets new maps. Sports game can ONLY have 1 map XD
Funny how your a cod fanboy :-)
Huge Eggs I hate ghost. I just like the logo
I like playing sport games amd cod type game and i dont think people care about a map when it comes to sports, i think they like having the experience of playing the sport
No sports games can have 30+ "maps" but they can't be new except for minor things lol
Although games like backbreaker never sold big I still play it simply because of tackling and running
The reason why u can call plays at any position when u are on the field is because people complained about not being able to do that in previous maddens. It is a stupid feature but people asked for it so u cant blame ea really.
It's silly. If you're a rookie 4th string WR, you shouldn't be telling Tom Brady to change the play or snap the ball...
Yea I do not like the feature at all because it doesn't feel like a real football experience but I understand why they did it.
I'm not a conspiracy theorist but I wonder if EA decides to leave something like my player mode crappy because they want people to focus on Ultimate Team, which is where they make a lot of money. To me, it makes sense. Look at 2K14, the biggest mode of the entire 2K series is MyPlayer mode, which won't draw much money in (I skipped 2k14 but I am pretty sure that you improve your player with VC that is purchasable, but you can certainly go without it).
I can not play madden unless im playing online all the modes are garbage and its the same game every year
Madden 13 was the best in my opinion
I understood jack all about that game I must be a typical brit
Nero, do prefer Xbox360 or the PlayStation 3
I wish the people at 2k who made the mycareer could make the career mode for madden 15... and what happened to being able to transfer your NCAA football player to madden??? Career mode is the reason I like madden, but I don't know now
Maliek Fuller NCAA football is done. They cant make the games anymore so they don't have the transfer feature.
I can't wait for madden it looks great
You should play with conner shaw hes better than manziel and hoyer, much underrated
MyPlayer Mode doesn't exist. It's all under the CFM. When you say My Player Mode, you're actually talking about franchise mode... j/s ;)
You're actually playing "Connected Careers" and it's not any form of a franchise mode because you control nothing outside of your own player. Don't try to correct the person that got the game a week early, j/s :)
I downloaded it yesterday. There is no connected careers. No My Player mode.
The snow looks so fake. Ugh. Thought next gen would improve on weather/graphics/etc
The last madden I bought is madden 13. Is this better than that? I thought 13 sucked.
I can only get this on past gen consoles ps3/360
Is there any major difference between those and the ps4/xbone versions ?
Also Nero, I sent you a message for a link to my kem strike for your kem Saturday series, i left a comment because I know it doesn't come up with a notification when anyone gets an inbox!:)
INNOCENT! You are my favorite youtuber by far.
Keep up the amazing work
Thank you man, means a lot when you guys say that!:)
Your welcom:)
To be honest Nero no one really plays my career and becomes a wide receiver it's all really quarterback and running back
Do you prefer xbox or PlayStation?
I get different Dev groups make the different titles even under the same company but it blows my mind how good RTG in NCAA was n then how shitty the be a Superstar mode is in Madden
Yup, and now we have no more NCAA games coming out. All I need is just one next gen NCAA game.
NerosCinema ok so here's a question. Everyone (including myself) was pretty upset about EA Access having timed trials because they weren't upfront about it. Do you think that if they were to put a remastered version of the last NCAA in the vault along with other titles that were on last Gen, that it would then become a pretty good deal? I think it kinda would but that's just my opinion
Just subbed :)
I hate how the players are so slow and they run so weird. Its annoying to play Luke this because its unrealistic.
Nice review i might pick it up idk
Who were your first picks for fantasy if you've done it yet?
Drew Brees, Marshawn Lynch, Alfred Morris, Mike Wallace, Reggie Wayne, Jordan Cameron, Seattle's Defense, Steven Hauschka at kicker.
Steven Hauschka ftw!
Great team btw!
stopped playing madden after like 2009
I'm getting it at midnight (:
6:45 I know right? I've been saying that for a while, how are they gonna improve without competition?
It's true. The NFL2K series (if it were still around) would probably have a My Player mode similar to NBA2K by this point. NFL2K had us in our own customizable mansion back in 2005.
is this youre honest opinion even though its sponsored by ea?
If it wasn't my honest opinion why would I be shitting all over my player made and the lack of innovation? EA doesn't pay for people's opinions, they just pay us to show their game. I'm allowed to say whatever I want about their games.
NerosCinema What do you think of the graphics? Im kinda disappointed in the visuals. Maybe i'm just spoiled after playing EA Sports UFC?
The graphics are passable. Still not next-gen, but okay. A much different team made UFC; They're still EA Sports, but a different studio.
EA Tiburon makes Madden NFL, while UFC is from the creators of Fight Night, which has always had amazing graphics, even FN: Round 2 on the original Xbox.
slvrcobra1337 Makes sense. Also I figured Madden wasn't truly next gen because the game is also on last gen consoles. While UFC was specifically made for the PS4 and X1. Hopefully we will get a true next gen Madden soon because even though the game looks good it still seems outdated.
Can you play singleplayer, carreer mode ? so alone, carreer mode, not online
Yeah I cannot run the ball for shit in this game and returning punts and kicks is impossible now it maybe it's just me
So what your saying is get madden 25 don't bother with this game?
Are the announcers still Jim Nantz and Phil Simms?
Yup, with basically the same commentary as last year but with a few new sound bits
it's the same thing again for 60 dollars so i recommend it. that statement is everything wrong with ea sports fans
This game is so unbelievably bad that I am thinking about snapping the disk.
The tackle animations look horribly the same why cant they have a real game engine damn EA wtf
Look here buddy...you didn't talk about gameplay, you didn't talk about franchise mode, you didn't talk about the ability to upgrade your players during franchise mode, this video was an 13min bashing of My Player mode...that a hand full of people plays. You didn't talk about online play, you didn't talk about the off season in franchise mode, you hardly mentioned franchise mode.

They could do it, but like you said, they bought out the rights to the NFL, which is total bullshit.
Wait so it's franchise mode again not Owner Coach And player?
Nope it's owner, coach, or player. I just call it franchise mode because "Connected Careers" sounds stupid lol
NerosCinema hopefully next year we get a better my player mode
Would you reccomend it for 60 dollars?
Why did they go backwards ten years?
I think that madden 07 was the best and madden 12 was the last good madden
yeah the my player had been bad for years
It's just Madden 02 with better graphics.
Would you want to play a game!
What's the difference between my player mode and franchise mode ?
My player you can only control your player. In Franchise you can control either the coach or the owner. Coach controls most aspects of the team, while owner controls literally everything even down to how much hotdogs cost at your stadium.
How much hotdogs cost?$100,everytime,it needs to be $100.
Thanks for telling me
Hundred dollar hot dogs?? I better get some sucky sucky also with that hundred dollars!!!
What's the name of that song in the beginning of the video? Please respond. Lol
Nice
Tbh i see a lot of glitching ouch..idk if imma get
Why does your game look different than mine??
so basically i shud stick to my madden 25 its awesome
not if you put the sliders to thier full extent and then play its challeneging every year i have really work hard to get to the superbowl
Is this for 360 too?
nero, is your name based on the dupstep song?
No
oh ok. just wondering cause the skrillex song cinema has a nero feature version
He song is April Showers
It's based on a wrestler
Can you make a tutorial as I'm British don't get it but looks fun
No tutorial needed lol it's American Football. If you know American Football, you know Madden.
ok thanks
I'm so going to the midnite release
Nero's last name is cinema #intel
is there an echo in here?
Is this next gen?
You love the NFL, not madden
Madden 25 was trash and this is from someone echinus great at the game and had every one on 360 and the first one I ever sold was 25 it was garbage if they did to fix the passing in this game it will not grace my console
Yay
Complete waste of money I got mine at 50% off and I still wish I had my money back. Best way to play defece is to set down the controler and watch. You are expected to pay hundreds of dorllars to get good players, this is a complete waste DO NOT BUY.
Pink and burnt orange....*pukes*
Where is online team play? Like to play with friends on your same team.....why wouldn't they add communities in this trash game? No team play? C'mon EA
R u a girl
Yes
U sound like a guy
George Garcia
Your stupidity hurts
Check his twitch it saids in his qna
Hi Nero
Nero Cinema it doesnt look like yhu enjoy playing COD ANYMORE ):
Huh?
Hi
