Threw it awayThis is quite simply the worst game I have ever had the misfortune of playing.

It is plagued with endless bugs, the announcing does not coordinate with the gameplay in the slightest, and there is no creativity in the gameplay - you can see everything there is to be experienced in this game within an hour. This is just what happens when you either rush a game to meet a release date, or can't be bothered to put money into testing it. My first game in I lost track of how many obvious, common sense errors there were (referring to second down as third down, calling a player by the wrong first name - Takeo Spikes and Brandon Spikes, incorrectly stating the rules of overtime, etc.) and the list grew exponentially as I continued to play.

I simply threw it in the trash. I couldn't justify re-sellin g this garbage to someone else and putting them through it. I don't know if any of the previous or future ones were this bad, but how this atrocity didn't destroy the Madden gaming franchise is beyond me. They released an incomplete game. Never buying another EA Sports game after purchasing this train-wreck.Verified purchase: Yes Condition: Pre-owned.

Madden 13.BIG LETDOWN 6/10!Madden 13 for wii u was a huge letdown. The good: The screen allows you to quickly draw a route any way you wish with your finger for a receiver to run.

The touch screen with your finger make you feel like your actually in the game as a coach selecting a play(love that).The BAD: Picking plays with the touch screen takes so long to get to the play that it usually ends up in a delay of game! Its slow loading.

The gamepad itself is horrible!!! Your right hand controls every receiver, Left hand your QB.

The problem is on xbox or ps3 the receiver to the right of qb are controlled with right hand, left with left hand. Its just confusing at times and uncomfortable using all right fingers to throw to 6 different players.

The fun factor just isnt there on Wii u.The cut scenes look great, the actual gameplay looks like wii with a little better quality(hdmi probally helps)Overall its a 6/10. If your going to play the franchise its best to stick to playing it on 360 or ps3.
