    Good stuff Guns. I think I'll wait until the 25th for the FIFA bundle and pick up Madden alongside it. Gives me an extra four weeks to try and stay off the beer and save some pennies for it. :pac: Do you have any idea how much the FIFA bundle will be? €379.99 with no Kinect I'd suppose?

    FIFA bundle is without the kinect so 399.
    Its a digital version of the Legends edition of FIFA

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,825 ✭✭✭Mikeyt086


    Turns out despite the good start, there is no worse way to endure a day at work as I've been staring at Richard Sherman for the last 3 hours and I'm not off until 4. :(

    Both of you go to the madden pfl site if you want a ps4 league, just tell them Heli sent you, I can't see there being a ps4 league on boards for the next while


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,189 ✭✭✭PADRAIC.M

    Waiting until the end of September to play this is going to be so tough. :pac::(


  • Moderators, Entertainment Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 11,795 Mod ✭✭✭✭Say Your Number


    Was tempted to get it for PS3, but seeing as it will essentially be Madden 25 with the squads updated I think I'll wait till I upgrade.


  • Registered Users Posts: 86 ✭✭Packoman


    Anyone know if you can have more than one person "be a player" on the same team, for a franchise? Like Captain Your Country in FIFA WC.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,587 ✭✭✭Berty44


    For the first time since the late seventies I will not be getting Madden on release day. After reading around going to wait until Christmas when I hope to get a ONE.

    That's quite impressive given the game didn't launch until the mid 80's.

    If the reviews are good, I may expedite my purchase of a One if I see any good deals flying around.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,587 ✭✭✭Berty44


    What the first Madden's looking like.....in the seventies....

    My WowHD order didn't ship today.....it just says that it is on backorder. :(

    I had planned on waiting until christmas to get an xbox one, but for the last two weeks I've been looking around at prices. Then I saw the 360 version for €42 on wowhd and snapped it up. I still don't know if I want to cancel and pick it up in a bricks and mortar over the weekend or cancel and pick up an xone over the weekend.
    I might just wait until monday and see what happens. :/

    Mines on order with hdwow as well for 360. I use them a bit as they are generally cheaper and I'm never in a rush for any game tbh. It takes around 2weeks, maybe more for delivery.

    I got the One today. A bit of wheeling and dealing with CEX's Kinect price and Argos's game offer meant I got the console, Kinect and Madden for €465.

    I thought it was quite good but no doubt it will drop €100 tomorrow if my luck with deals is anything to go by. :pac:

    It'll drop after Xmas but it probably won't change much between now and then.

    To be fair this new round of consoles are cheap for just after launch. I remember when the ps1 and ps2 launched they were mental prices in comparison.

    It may be time for Madden 16 before I get to play this game. Are they having a laugh with the size of the installations? :eek:

    Hi guys i have an xbox one and was thinking about getting this game but i rarely play online due to awful internet in my area and was wondering what game modes are available offline for 2 or more people,thanks.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,249 ✭✭✭Stev_o


    Have to say wow, I stopped playing Madden when the diabolical 13 was released and was content with NCAA in the mean. But playing this is a breath of fresh air. It actually requires you to think on All Pro where before it was "Pick the play with the pretty routes". Very impressed.

    Most of the two TE formations are gone from the pats book, that's my offense gone out the window. Were into the dark ages of madden play for me.

    Yeah I seen this last night and be doesn't even play for the titans!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,477 ✭✭✭✭Knex*


    Anyone else having issues on Defense whereby the ball seemingly goes through your player in coverage, and they just don't react?

    Whenever I'm dropping back with a linebacker, and I should be getting picks, the just don't react for me. So frustrating at times.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,864 ✭✭✭empacher


    After playing it for a good few hrs, I'm so bored with it. Don't feel any of the excitement that I had to play madden 25. Maybe xbox1 is better, but 360 feels meh.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,825 ✭✭✭Mikeyt086

    During a game there. Passing play. Complete pass to. WR. TE blocks a CB. Cornerback gets launched into the air like the TE had some anti gravity shield around him.


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators Posts: 21,666 Mod ✭✭✭✭helimachoptor


    One of the pfl guys stuck up a video of that happening on the one
