I just bought the latest madden.. Ie Madden 26. It has got to be the worst Madden ever. I used to buy Madden every year (going back to 1988). Last year was the first year since the franchise came out that i didn't. So I decided to buy this years.. I now wish I hadn't. Lets start off with my inital impression.. Right off the bat, they bombard you with buy more packs.. I just dropped $70 on the game, and you want me to by more, even before I play a single snap. Then I did the win challenge, to get a feel for the game.. Totally sucks.. The play art seems like they went back to 1990s. Then trying to pick the player I am on, while the art is still being display.. I can't tell which player I am.. And don't get me started on the kicking.. I still can't figure out what I am doing wrong... Totally a waste of my money.. And I must add I am a software developer.. And this game is the worst madden I have ever played. I will finish with this will be the last time I buy madden.. It has really gone down the tubes.
