First off, this is my first review and I have a rule that unless I am completely blown away, I won't give it 5 stars. The game play blew me away, however, the lack of a Fantasy Draft did take away some of the fun of it, still not enough for me to take away a star. Had a good time playing, which is important for me.
Game play was better than '12, although there was an instance where a DL stole the hand-off between RB and QB and ran it back for a TD. That bugs me a little bit, but not as much as my running back not catching a 300 pound defensive lineman when he didn't even get tackled for the ball. Again, if I have to be picky, that would be my only negative. It is more realistic in some ways, but in others, it is kinda' the same.
What completely blew me away (I am easy to please, I guess) was the fact that you can change plays on the line of scrimmage by talking to the Kinect. For example, I am a Miami fan, so I can say "Bess, fly pattern" and the game will highlight the fact that Bess is going to do a fly pattern. Not sure what other commands you can throw at it, but that seems like an interesting addition.
Before you all rip me because I don't mention Franchise, I am going to say that I don't use it, I don't care for it, and I don't miss it. I am not ripping those who have been giving bad reviews to the game. They have a right to do so, because they find a part of how they normally play missing. I like the way the game plays. My son and I, or he and his friends have a good time playing the game and at the end, I like it a lot and hope that they keep this engine as is, or improve upon it.
Hopefully they will listen to the many that liked Franchise and Fantasy the way it was and put it back. I have seen Madden developers take away parts of the game, to later add them back in. I have been playing Madden since the Sega Genesis days, so yes, I have seen it done. They are not stupid people. If they don't, they lose revenue, if they do, they regain revenue lost. Kinda' simple, don't you think?
Anyway, this is my review and I am sticking with it....
Make no mistake. Madden 13 is not a perfect football game, but it's more than likely the best Madden ever made. They listened to the fans and they got a new engine and new physics engine. It's got some issues here and there, but overall you will love it. I highly recommend it for any self righteous Madden fan.
For a good solid review from an unbiased sports game site, Operation Sports has a very honest and straight up review on the game. 8.5 out of 10. I'm agreeing totally, best Madden ever made. Enjoy it for what it is, a great playing football game. If something is missing from last year that annoys you, then that's fine. But for me, I'm all for fixing the engine and making a new game before adding goodies.
