Let’s get this out of the way first. If you’re
a NFL fan and are looking to play some Gridiron on your iPhone, Madden 12 has enough content
and solid gameplay to make it a worthwhile purchase. For everyone else, let’s delve a
little deeper. The game is played with a combination of touch
mechanics and an on screen joystick and buttons. Whether on offensive or defense, you can select
a play from your team’s book (with every team having their own unique plays), or you can
use the touch screen to draw your own plays, assigning jobs to every man on the field.
Once the ball is in play touching a player will give you control over them. The analogue
stick will move them and you can sprint, or execute turns with the touch of a button (including
entering a slow motion mode, giving you more time to make decisions). This can all be a
little overwhelming when first playing but before long you’ll be fluidly picking options
and controlling your players like it was second nature. The graphics and sound are both of a high
quality. Obviously there’s not as much variation in animation and commentary as the console
version contains, but the repeats, even though frequent don’t detract too much from the game
itself. Content wise this will be keeping you busy. The entire rosters of all thirty
two teams are here, and are available for trade. Combine that with the season and play-off
modes, plus using the Origin system for multiplayer matches with your friends, and you can see
how this game could eat up a lot of your time. EA usually have a high bar of quality on their
sports releases and this is the case with Madden 12 for the iPhone. Sure it can’t look
to compete with its console brethren, but if you must get your Gridiron fix on
the go, you won’t go wrong with this one.
First. Yay
YA 3rd!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
FIFTH?! Unacceptable!
love how you post lots of videos and really quickly as soon as the apps come out. great work !
good
great review, really. the probloem is the game, if any o u who is reading this coment, u must now the game is the same thing as Madden nfl 11 the diference?? its new rosters, but the plays and the gameplay are worse than the madden nfl 11, dont buy, buy the 11
Once a ball's in play touching them will give you control over them. Need I say more…?
@rgGamerfreak69 It's confusing but when you get to know it, it will be your favorite sport EVER! Trust me.
appspy i cant believe u gave this a five… this is an awful buggy release…. needless to say its nearly impossible to run
@jonaslum and it is barely an improvement off madden 11… waste of 7 dollars
Why is Hasselbeck throwing to Brandon Stokley? Neither of those guys are with the Seahawks this year. This IS Madden 12, right?
Looks like they're using last year's roster. Fail.
@rgGamerfreak69 n it isnt u just ned to learn the rules and other junk like first down, punt, blitz, and other stuff
I love how this game just came out and it has Hasselbeck as Seattle's QB…. fail.
@Draidis rosters get updated, so he is not anymore
madden on xbox is sooo epic! And i really really want that version on my iphone! Id pay $5 for it. But everyone says the iphone app sucks bad with bugs.
too bad EA, u would have made a lot of money if you didnt release such crap versions of your games…
@CescoPisicoli Man, if i were you' I'd buy the game. I was afraid of buying the game too, but then I think w/ my self, "FUCK IT, I'M GONNA BUY THIS",worked, and works PERFECTLY with me. No bugs, excelent framerate…. But, of course, if your device is a iPod Touch 3rd generation 8GB, it won't work fine.
@victorherbst so it works good?? i heard the softwear is riddled with bugs?
This game sucks!! I wasted my money on bullshit…it's impossible to run and you always catch so what's the point?
why cant i play mine mine just stays white and says favorite team on the top idk what to do any one help?
STEWIE!!!
