Jesus, this is a bad case of clown shoes.

Any youtube clips?

Or rather, anyone find good vids that might show the bad as well as the good? Not that EA live press conference BS.

I watched the gameplay for 15 and it looks nice. However, it really doesnt look next-gen. It's the same old tired shit. With the new platforms they really could've done some cool shit but EA keeps forcing these ****ing things out every year. Give it a two year break and seriously update this game.
LB's can still jump 8 feet, no gang tackles, O-Lines are either like the Berlin Wall or a subway turn-style.
I'll pass on it again this year.

Here's my $.02 after playing the Early Access release for 6 hours. For reference, I played 2 hours of their new 'Tutorial' system, 1 'Play now' vs Denver and a few online ranked matches. All on All-Pro setting.

PROS
- Awesome presentation, halftime highlights, etc.
- graphics & eye candy getting closer to 'next-gen'
- improved OL/DL interaction & blocking AI. Finally can get a pass rush without wonky blitzes that confuse the AI
- various camera angles/zoom are really nice
- defensive AI is vastly improved
- tutorial system is awesome and explains offensive & defensive concepts & schemes, and how to make correct reads
- overall feels much more 'sim', and less 'arcade'. You are punished for throwing into coverage or missing the hole.
- new 'ask coach'/'community' feature lets you see what everyone else is calling on 3rd and X, and the success %. Pretty damn cool.

CONS
- AI is much improved, but they still have a bit to go.
- Commentary can get annoying
- defense reacts MUCH better to passes, but still DROPS picks a little too often
- new playcall system can be cumbersome to find what your looking for.
- personally dont care for the defensive line 'mini game' for pass rushing
- this one really pisses me off, especially in ranked online. On 4th down and your on defense, you CANNOT cycle through formations/plays UNTIL the offense PICKS. You have 10 seconds to find it. This is insane, especially for 4th down. I want to be ready in case they go for it on 4th!!

Overall I wont say that I'm impressed, but EA is definitely headed in the right direction and this one will do well.

No. I only play online ranked or $ games from Gamersaloon.

[Dayze]

Looks the same; or, rather, not worht $60. that game should be $30-40 tops.

[ToxSocks]

Looks exactly like the same game i already have....Madden '12....and i bought that one used because it looked exactly like the new Madden '13 at the time.

I don't think i've purchased a brand new copy of madden since '08
