Quick Look: Madden NFL 13

Anything beyond Madden '92 is too complex for me.

Edit: Only a year of mashing F5 to finally finish AV Club.

FOOTBALL!

are you ready for some football?!

Are you ready for some foosball?

Ryan eats Poo

THIS MADDEN IS SUPPOSED TO BE GOOD THIS YEAR.

Should I watch this or the Olympiad? My brain hurts.

Someone tell Ray Lewis to sit down.

I'll buy a madden when they get some CFL up in there.

WHO STILL BUYS THESE EVERY YEAR!?!?!?

the CFL license must be about $120, right?

I know EA basically steals $60 from me every year because this game year to year hardly changes, but I'm a red blooded American...I HAVE to buy Madden every year!

Football season is sooooo CLOSE!!!

Alex said I want to watch this. We'll see Alex, we'll see.

Another Jeff and Vinny football quick look BANGER

nice!

I demand a Jeff and Vinny Madden '13 endurance run.

This QL has me laughing like an idiot.

Same reason you all buy Call of Duty every year. A lot of football fans love this series including myself, i buy it every year.

I love how Vinny's reaction whenever he hears that anything is Kinect compatible is to immediately yell, "XBOX!!!!!"

Vinny - "I'm afraid we won't be able to see" when Jeff suggests the 8:15pm game kickoff. Love it, great quick look already.

Football is lots of fun, guys.

@GenocidalKitten: My knees have been cracking since at least early 20s. For all I know they've cracked all my life...ankles too.

More than five million people do. Go away.

Amazingly real if you didn't know

As a big fan of Madden and American Football, I fear this will be almist impossible to watch..

Honestly, I would totally watch that. I would think it would be hilarious to see two people who know nothing about football play a season.

IT'S A FAKE!!!

I'll have you guys know...I like the Papa Johns ad's because their pizza is teh awesome...Madden + pizza = AWESOME SAUCE!

Ironically because of the Transformers references, the cover star of Madden 13, Calvin Johnson, is nicknamed Megatron. Fun Fact.

JEFF AND VINNY.

Your professional Giant Bomb American Football team.

EDIT: As someone who enjoys FIFA on a pretty annual basis, they really go all out with the UI in this game. Lots of mechanical noises and lens flare. The FIFA menus are just... menus.

I'm calling a Navarro review for this one.

I love how they set it to All-Madden and heavy snow.

Holy crap Tom Brady looks like Frankenstein in this game!

As a football fan, I have to say I quite enjoy these quicklooks every year. It's funny watching and listening to people who have no idea whats going on try to make sense of the game!

Vinny leaping with Sanchez only to get tackled mid jump made me laugh very hard.

I love that Jeff doesn't know anything about NFL teams but he happens too fall into the Gronkowski stuff purely by accident. "Gronkowski Catch" and Gronkowski run...he is a robot (or I guess you could say meathead) in real life so this is just too perfect. Oh yeah and 3 TDs for the Gronk.

"I wish I were better."

"Do you?"

37:42

I was laughing throughout this entire QL, Jeff and Vinny need to play every sports game that comes out.

Those physics are wonky as hell.

NE Coach is looking really good this year

Maybe it's just because they have the same approach to these games as I do, but this is great.

"Well look, let's try to finish not last." GO RAMS!

I couldn't care too much less about football or football games, but the quicklooks they produce always seem to be hilarious.

More games need to utilize Mr. Burns' "Excellent!" fingers.
