Preordered Madden a couple weeks ago. I've always preferred NCAA over it but that's no longer an option.

I'm picking up Madden tomorrow, excited. I also pre-ordered NHL. Looking for a good fighting game but am used to Socom, so not sure if there are any 3rd person shooters ever coming out again.

I haven't heard anything about a 3rd person shooter forever. Socom on ps4 would be badass though.

dude, you have to get PvZ Garden Warfare. Third person shooter, one of my favorite games of the last few years. It is out now on both PS4, XB1, and PC.

I remember you could on bf3. Not sure about bf4. That's a good question.

Googling it, doesn't look like bf4 has 3rd person other than when you're driving a vehicle.

Did see it says skyrim has a 3rd person view.

Yeah, BF4 no, COD no, Titanfall no.

I can confirm Skyrim did have both as an option.

I believe the upcoming game "The Division" is 3rd person.

Also, The Last of Us multiplayer is 3rd person, and is a great multiplayer experience if you have PS4/PS3 and haven't tried that.

I think the SOCOM guys are making an independent game for ps4. It was a kick starter and they reached their goal almost immediately. H Hour maybe?

As far as I could see there were no videos on that page in the media section. I just went go their YouTube page.

I've only had a chance to play like 1 hour so far, and I've only gone through training exercises (They have a very extensive training setup to go through...). It is optional, but being away from the game a for a few years I thought it would be wise..The mechanics in training seem good.

Read here for user impressions, most of what I'm reading online is that it is the best Madden in years...I'm usually a 'wait until it's $30' guy for Madden, but I had a football gaming itch with the season approaching, so I decided to buy it early this time around after skipping last year entirely.

I did the same thing as you McFly, I stopped before game situations I think. I like the ability to switch camera angles on defense...Im using my DLine alot more now then switching out when the play breaks down. Also trying out MyTeam this year since I got 5 free packs off Amazon.

So far, best Madden I've ever played.

Definitely the best Madden in a very long time.

I'm debating cancelling my Destiny preorder on amazon...Chances are that I won't, then I'll get it, play it a little, then trade it back in to Amazon.

I don't know, the beta and alpha just seemed kind of boring to me and I had to force myself to play it....I've been looking forward to this game for awhile, so it's kind of like I want to like it more than I actually like it.

I just got Madden, I'm getting NHL, then there are a few games in October/November that I'm getting, so maybe I can hold off....

Destiny is pretty much what I expected, they do have an online matchmaking multiplayer which should be tremendous though.
