I have madden 25 downloaded into the emulator and it keeps crashing after I select the teams and then I select the game settings. After I go through the game settings the game starts to load in but it the game freezes every time.

To help round out the game's successful run, we put together a list of our 10 favorite tips from Madden NFL 25. Enjoy, and take advantage – you could very well have another Super Bowl contender on your hands.

10.) Combine Your Running Tactics

While going down the field, remember you have more than one advantage with your ball carrier. You can juke, spin, dive and shove your way past particular players – and even combine moves together. Try looping a juke with a spin so you jump in one direction and then spin the next. You could shake off a couple of defenders if you do it the right away – and leave yourself open for a run to the end zone. Watch what incoming players do and react accordingly.

9.) Learn New Skills Through Drills

If you're a veteran Madden player, you may think that you don't have to worry about going through the Skills Drill. However, trying them out will not only teach you the basics you've come to understand, but will also net you an Achievement or Trophy once you go through them. Besides, practice makes perfect – especially when you're going up against a monster team like the Seahawks. Take the time and master the drills.

8.) Don't Abuse Your Turbo

It's nice to have access to a turbo button, as you can sprint for the end zone with a receiver or dart your way through a defensive line to reach the quarterback for a sack. However, use it leniently. You'll use up your player's energy by constantly holding the button down, leaving them winded and possibly vulnerable later on in the game. Turn it on when you absolutely need it, and you'll benefit as a result.

7.) Don't Turn Away Free Points

If you have an opportunity to add three points to the board right before the half, go ahead and take it. Some may be tempted to 'go for it' and add an extra seven points to the board, but the fact is it's a riskier play, as the defense for the other team can possibly pick you off and make a score of their own. Sometimes it's best to play it safe – as some coaches are known to do – and tack onto the lead. You don't want to kick yourself later.

6.) Modification Can Be Everything

In making the most from your plays, don't forget your modifier. Assigned to the left shoulder button (or trigger, depending on the version), this allows you to have more powered-up moves for a small amount of time, whether it's leaping higher over an opposing player or adding a little speed to your defensive moves. Use it sparingly, as it takes up a good amount of energy from your player, and time your actions just right so you get the most from them. Be sure to practice when you can.

5.) Stuck? Ask Madden!

When choosing a crucial play – especially on a third and long situation – you don't want to make the wrong call. Instead, keep in mind that you can always Ask Madden in the menu and he'll provide a number of plays to choose from. Since he's a coaching legend and all, he knows his stuff, so don't be afraid to prod him for a quick consultation. It could make all the difference when it comes to adding to your lead.

4.) Check Your Passing Routes

When passing to the open man to get the ball further downfield, you'll want to watch out for particular warning signs, such as when defensive coverage 'doubles up' on a player for the possibility of an interception. In the precious few seconds you have to read runner routes, look for whoever's the most wide open – even if they're not the most preferred receiver – and make the play. Don't hesitate too long, though, or you'll get sacked!

3.) Running? Try a Stiff Arm

One of the best moves you have for holding off a defender is the stiff arm. It may not be the cleanest tactic, but it'll keep them off your back while you continue to dash forward for those extra yards. Press the X or A button (depending on your version) to utilize it, but just keep in mind it's not a miracle worker. If you've got a defensive man charging at you at full speed, you may want to turn to a juke or a spin instead. Read players carefully.

2.) Don't Go Crazy With Your Time-Outs

In each half of the game, you have three time-outs available, but you'll want to use them as sparingly as possible. If you feel in your gut that a challenge could go your way, risk using one to see if the refs decide in your favor. Otherwise, try to save them for as late in the game as possible – it could make all the difference as you push down field for the game-winning touchdown. Also, don't forget that you can press the X (or A) button while huddling to speed things along. In some situations, every second counts!

1.) Know Your Team

When it comes to adapting to a style of play with your team, it helps to know where its strengths lie. If you've got a team with a strong defensive line, try to work up the interceptions and fumble opportunities before they kick it back to you. If you've got a go-to quarterback like the Denver Broncos' Peyton Manning, take advantage of his great arm and go for some ideal pass plays. If your runners know what they're doing, don't be afraid to hand the ball off to them and let them do their work. It helps to know what kind of team you're playing with before you begin a game. That way, you can figure out their plays and make them work in your favor.

Madden NFL 25 is available now for Xbox 360, Xbox One, PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4.

Madden NFL 25 is an American footballsportsvideo game based on the National Football League and published by EA Sports. It was released for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in August 2013. Instead of numbering it Madden NFL 14 with the year like in previous versions, the '25' in the title refers to the 25th anniversary of the Madden NFL series.^[1] The eighth-generation console versions of Madden NFL 25 are the very first games to run on EA Sports's Ignite game engine. However, the seventh generation versions still run on EA's previous game engine, Impact. The seventh-generation versions featured former Detroit Lions running back Barry Sanders on the cover, while the eighth-generation versions featured Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson, and were released as launch titles for the first time on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One in November 2013.

Gameplay[edit]

In Connected Franchise career mode, players own and manage a National Football League (NFL) team.^[2] Players can also move teams to new cities, including international markets like Toronto, Mexico City, Dublin and London, or revive historic teams like the Houston Oilers^[2] or the London Monarchs from NFL Europe. It was the first time this happened since Madden NFL 12 for the franchise and team relocation since Madden NFL 09.

Development[edit]

The game was announced in early 2013. It was shown in conjunction with EA Sports's Ignite game engine announcement at Microsoft's Xbox One reveal as one of four upcoming games to use the engine.^[3] Electronic Arts confirmed the game as an Xbox One and PlayStation 4 launch title at its E3 2013 press conference.^[4]

Improvements over the previous Madden titles include upgraded graphics (including for the first time real metallic shine for teams with metallic helmets for the Xbox One and PS4 releases),^[5] better real-time physics, new running controls, and a reactive environment, including a playing field that wears out in high-activity areas.^[6] The next-gen console versions are better equipped to handle these updates due to their extra processing power.^[6]Player-character foot tracking is five times as accurate on the newer consoles.^[6] The debuting Ignite game engine tracks all on-field players simultaneously in order to predict path collisions for more realistic impacts.^[6] The game can also store more animations to make player movement more realistic.^[6] The next-gen versions will also include exclusive features,^[6] such as an improvement to pass blocking where increased computer player awareness lets the artificial intelligence change priorities mid-play and double-team players, new to the Madden series.^[6] These choices are designed to let the player think more like the quarterback instead of retreating every play to evade the rushing defensive players.^[6]

Cover player selection[edit]

Hall of Famerunning backBarry Sanders, who played for the Detroit Lions from 1989 until 1999, won the contest to be featured on the video game's cover over Adrian Peterson of the Minnesota Vikings, with 58 percent of the vote. Sanders became the first player to appear on the cover of Madden NFL more than once (he appeared in the background of the Madden NFL 2000 cover).^[7]Electronic Arts later announced that Peterson would be on the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One game covers, while Sanders will remain on the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 cover.^[8]

Release[edit]

The game was released on August 27, 2013 for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. It was released as a launch title for the PlayStation 4 on November 15, 2013 and as a launch title for Xbox One on November 22, 2013.^[6] An announced Anniversary Edition available only at Amazon.com includes a code for NFL Sunday Ticket access.^[9]

Reception[edit]

Madden Nfl 25 Rookie Ratings

Madden NFL 25 received mostly positive reviews. Jack Devries of IGN gave the game 8.5/10, praising the improved franchise mode, while criticizing the repetitive touchdown celebrations and glitchy presentation, such as the fictional tweets which say teams 'barely won', when the final score is 35-14.^[11]Joystiq's Mike Suszek scored the game four stars out of five, commenting on the inconsistency of the running game, as a result of the sensitive collision detection of the Infinity engine.^[12] On the contrary, Dustin Toms of Operation Sports praised the running game, primarily due to the addition of the pistol offense; Toms scored the game as 7.5.^[13]

Madden Nfl 25 Xbox One

Brett Todd of GameSpot criticized the commentary by Jim Nantz and Phil Simms, stating that they 'offer nothing but inanities, generic observations about the 'offense' and the 'defense' that rarely refer to players by name, and loads of those obnoxious 'I'll tell you what' tics that make Simms so insufferable.' Todd also commented that the passing game is too overpowered, though he praised the 'Run Free' addition. Ultimately, the score given by Todd was 6.0.^[14]Forbes' Erik Kain also criticized the commentary, stating that the exclusive rights deal between EA and the NFL hindered the amount of improvements to the series. On the positive side, Kain praised the 'Run Free' feature, calling it a welcome addition to the franchise.^[15] Steven Hansen of Destructoid praised the physics, but noted the possible lack of replay value, calling it 'Madden XIII-2' due to it being too similar to Madden NFL 13.^[16] GameZone's Lance Liebl gave the PS4 version an 8/10, stating 'If you're a football fan and an early owner of one of the next-gen consoles, go out and get Madden NFL 25. There's enough improvements to justify buying it, especially if you do the trade-up program for Xbox One.'^[17]

Madden Nfl 25 360

Madden NFL 25 for Android and iOS received negative reviews, the iOS version receiving a Metacritic Metascore of 39 based on two mixed and six negative critic reviews. Eric Ford of Touch Arcade gave the game a 1/5 rating, criticizing the game's highly simplified football matches and excessive freemium Pay-to-win elements.^[18] Matthew Diener of Pocket Gamer gave the game a 2/5 rating, criticizing sticky and unresponsive controls which 'pose more of a challenge than the AI does' and Free-to-play elements.^[19]
