Madden 2012 Demo Impression

When you hear the words “milked franchise” Madden often comes to mind. The reason being is there are hardly any changes with the newest iteration, other than some slight improvements here and there and an updated roster. This Madden is almost the exact same as last years one. How is it a game that hardly changes every year still manages to sell at least 100k units

Downloading the Demo right now.

LOL at this this guy, he said at "least 100k units." If you're going to write previews and such, do some homework and get some statistics. Does he not know that (american) football is the highest grossing sport in the United States? Or that Madden sells better than probably every game in his entire library (except for COD)?

Why write a preview of a demo if all it's actually going to be is a rant?

Bolts4637d ago

Lol @ the 100k comment. Madden sell very well every year.

right off the bat i cna say the graphics are the same,theres almost no feeling to the tackles, they said there would be new collisions and imo didn't seem that way it felt like madden11 but slower and softer really.

GunofthePatriots4637d ago (Edited 4637d ago )

played the demo and nothing really different--not that i expected anything different.
i use to be big into sport games but they are all the same year in and year out.

devs should really create sport games every other year and have small $15 (possibly) dlc during the 'off year'.
i think that's a pretty good idea.

Tony-Red-Grave4636d ago

great idea i was thinking create a sports game then release the roster updates up until the end of the eason. After that release add ons like old AFL teams to use offline, or oline if approved, and a roster update, years worth on the day madden rekleases, for some $5 since people who buy madden end up buying something like this anyway. anything to at least make the franchise more bearable.

Btw isn't this EAs last year with the rigts?

Ranking the Devil May Cry Series

VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "Upon finally finishing Devil May Cry 5 recently - after it spent several years on my “I’ll play that soon” list - I considered giving it a fittingly-named Late Look article. However, considering that this was indeed the final piece I was missing in the DMC puzzle, I decided to instead take this opportunity to take a look back at the entirety of this genre-defining series and rank the entries. What also made this a particularly tempting notion was that while most high-profile series have developed fairly evenly over time, with a few bumps on the road, the history of Devil May Cry has, at least in my eyes, been an absolute roller coaster, with everything from total disasters to action game gold."

First to last for me...3,4,5,1,2.

Me leaving it out should be telling of my thoughts on it. Better than 2 as a DMC game.

Still a good game though.

Friendlygamer2h ago

3,1,4,5 to me, never played 2. 5 gameplay is amazing but level design was really disappointing to me, just a bunch of plain arenas, the story felt like a worse written rehash of the 3rd and the charater models looked weird ( specially the ladies ). Another problem with 5 was that there was not enough content for 3 charaters so I could never really familiarize with any of them

Used to love this one, but X-Men Legends 1 and 2 will always be my favorites, especially Rise of Apocalypse. Would pay some good money to play it today with online multiplayer, back then I had no way to get a modem

I remember buying them dirt cheap on the PS4 and then a few days later I read they were delisted. I was wondering why the bundle was price so low and got my answer when that happened.

Knightofelemia5h ago(Edited 5h ago)

Sad to say this is one game franchise next to the Xmen that needs a sequel. I use to play the hell out of Xmen Legends and Marvel Ultimate Alliance. Was great when my cousin had the OG Xbox play with four other people and then playing online. Great games glad to see it reappear even though I own the discs love the mechanics of this game.

Terry_B5h ago

It got a sequel..but for dumbass #reasons as a switch exclusive.

shinoff21834h ago

It looked so horrible to. They should've kept it similar to the first two.

Asplundh4h ago

Because Nintendo funded it, they did the same for Bayonetta.

Knightofelemia4h ago

I totally forgot about the Switch sequel.

jukins4h ago

Misleading. This page is whats available for people who owned the game prior to delisting.

Abnor_Mal4h ago

The first game was the best imo.
