The new engine allows for fights to happen more organically, if that’s an effective way to describe face punching. It looks like a solid addition to a great sports gaming franchise. Follow that code, or blood will be spilled.

21 new details about the upcoming Madden 25
Posted by Scott Johnson under EA Sports, Football, Madden, PS3, XBOX 360 on Jun 03, 2013
Madden 25 is quickly approaching, and while they’ve been putting out Developer Diaries, there’s still not a lot of info discussed about the details of the game. Virtual Sports Network recently spoke with EA Sports Creative Director Mike Young, and here are some new details about the game you might be interested in. (Thanks to Operation Sports for the recap):
- The Presentation playbook went away this year, but that doesn’t mean the team hasn’t been working hard on it.
- Year 2 with Nance and Simms adds more depth in commentary, especially in career mode, more details on that at a later date.
- Replays feel more human, varied and specific to the types of plays. Using real cameras, from the real locations in the stadiums (framing, timing, etc.)
- New animated tickers, banners, feels more like a broadcast.
- Added more team chants, first down and stadium sounds, since they went to many stadiums with Jim and Phil and grabbed live recordings.
- More authentic tracks from various stadiums. Redone referee audio.
- If you move your team, commentators will talk about that.
- New sideline reporter has been added, will talk about that later.
- Adam Schefter is still in the virtual news feed, breaking story lines, but he has also been added to the draft commentary.
- When the draft is running, Trey Wingo is the host and Adam talks about the outlook and expectations of the player.
- Brand new branching story lines for 30 draft classes and Adam made them sound authentic. Adam has been signed for a couple of years.
- Can’t place players on the PUP list. (Injured reserve IS STILL in the game)
- Owners can’t bid for Super Bowl hosting.
- Overhauled Connected Franchise website, much more functional with tutorials.
- Commissioner tools haven’t been locked down, so they couldn’t announce any of them.
- Facial scans were made for most of last year’s rookie class (roughly 20 didn’t get in) All starting QB’s and some QB’s that could see some time.
- Also ran facial scans for coaches, in total close to 100 facial scans made it in.
- Players get scanned if they are available at events (for example the Pro Bowl) some simply don’t want to. Basically EA gets what they can, when they can. It’s not as easy as people may think it is.
- They have tweaked the Zoom camera, didn’t mention any other cameras.
- There is no PC version of Madden NFL 25.
- Head coaches, head trainers, head scouts and owners will be featured in story lines, not coordinators.
FIRST LOOK: Pro Evolution Soccer 2014′s trailer
Posted by Scott Johnson under Konami, Pro Evolution Soccer, PS3, Soccer, XBOX 360 on May 31, 2013
The majority of soccer gamers prefer FIFA, but there’s a group of fans dedicated to the Pro Evolution Soccer franchise. Konami has come out with a trailer for this year’s version of the game, showing off their newly modified Fox Engine.
It’s big news that they’re changing engines because PES has used the same engine since the PlayStation 2 days.
In terms of new features, this year’s game welcomes the AFC Champions League, with a new game mode just for the league. More info about the game will be released on June 6th, 2013.
EA’s Online Pass is officially dead
Posted by Scott Johnson under EA Sports, PS3, XBOX 360 on May 30, 2013
Today’s a good day if you’re a gamer, especially if you play EA games. As we wrote about a few weeks ago, Electronic Arts announced that they’d be getting rid of the Online Pass program. EA has now officially started removing all the restrictions, and it should be complete within the coming weeks.
EA Sports games will be the first set of games to have the passes removed. EA Sports initially launched the system to earn more revenue from used gamerss, as well to profit from those that choose to pirate their games.
Before you think that this is a step in the right direction, the next generation consoles will severely restrict and/or eliminate the concept of used games. So celebrate while you can with your 360’s and your PS3’s.
