New Trailer and Blocking Videos for Next-Gen Madden NFL 25
EA Sports today released a new gameplay trailer for Madden NFL 25 along with three clips showing the rewritten offensive line blocking logic in action with a focus on pass blocking.
The problem EA has faced as of late is that many of the improvements they have touted aren't translating properly or being recognized and flashy trailers aren't going to change that now that real gameplay and replay footage have circulated. Those who have seen the game up close and played it have reported ther...
New Trailer for NBA Live 14
EA Sports has released an extended gameplay trailer for NBA Live 14. When the company promised 5-on-5 footage for today, and released a short video clip as a teaser, the implication was that it would be actual gameplay footage. They certainly needed to come with something fairly significant after the horrible reception that clip received. Instead they send out a flashy trailer on the heels of the competition's far more impressive one that offers little of value considering what has already b...
New Next-Gen NBA 2K14 Trailer

Scheduled to release on launch day for the PlayStation 4 (November 15) and Xbox One (November 22) 2K14 still has yet to have any features detailed.

NBA Live 14 Gameplay Video Coming Friday; Short Teaser Shows Game in Action
There has been a lot of talk about features and philosophies going into NBA Live 14 but what EA Sports long ago claimed they realized they had to do - show the game off and be transparent in an effort to prove it's not just talk after three years off from releasing games - had still yet to happen. That will apparently change on Friday with the release of the first 5-on-5 gameplay video.
The company backed that up by releasing a glimpse of gameplay action which for the first time shows tha...
Second Next-Gen Madden NFL 25 Highlight Video; Now They Don’t Want You To See
ESPN today released another Monday Night Football sim with footage from next-gen Madden NFL 25. The first one with Dolphins @ Saints was so poorly received that EA Sports and ESPN skipped last week's sim seemingly in an effort to produce something more impressive. That video probably did more damage to the perception of the product than the hands-on impressions (check out the most recent Press Row Hangout and Podcast for talk of that) which have described the game as not much different than cu...
Madden NFL 25 Next-Gen Gameplay Found in Video Centered on CoachGlass Feature
A video from tech site Engadget, reporting on the CoachGlass feature that was revealed yesterday, provides the first glimpse of next-gen Madden NFL 25 in action. The footage shows a game that isn't straying from the way the current-gen version looks in terms of presentation or even much in how it plays on the field. (more…)...
SmartGlass Functionality Announced for Madden NFL 25 on Xbox One
EA Sports today announced that SmartGlass will be utilized with the Xbox One version of Madden NFL 25. SmartGlass is available on smartphones and tablets (iOS, Android, Windows) as well as PCs running Windows 8. The app turns them into second screen devices that communicate directly with the games. (more…)...
