Madden 13 is the first and so far only football game on the vita. This gives this franchise more buys since this is the only option for quality on the go football. Thankfully, it delivers. The sad thing is it does not include connected carrers or ultimate team like the console versions. Instead, it contains the original madden modes. Franchise is the same thing you saw on Madden 12 with updated rosters. Superstar is also much the same except you can take a picture of yourself to use as your player card. The gameplay plays much like the PS3 version. The touch screen can be used to draw hot routes while the SIX-AXIS controls aim your kicks, i hate that because you can't change it.
Pros:
-Traditional Franchise and Superstar modes with tiny new features
-Great HD graphics
-Nice sound
-Madden Moments are same as consoles
Cons:
-Kicking can be annoying
-Not that much good use of the vita's features

Well got this for the vita ,the price was little hi i felt.Wasnt sure what to expect for madden,as havent liked the last ones they came out with on handhelds...this in my opinion is the best in the madden series on the handheld yet,better graphics,and animation ,and defintetly better player realizism..hey that looks like who its suppose to ,good job finally,..but they dont have much going on with the fans...if they had some kind of fan and mascot type stuff going on like the college football games ,be pretty sweet..anyways nice football game its worth getting

I have always been a fan of Madden. I recently purchased a PSVita and Im not happy with Madden. NO player progression. Its like Madden 12 mixed with 13. It lags probably because of the great graphics. The game can be played online with other online platforms, dont recommend it unless you liked being beat. I also have the 3DS version as well, its 10x worse. STAY ON THE CONSOLE. Wait till they perfect hand held systems. DO NOT MAKE MY MISTAKES MADDEN GAMERS.

I am reviewing this game after the first patch was already downloaded the lag that most reviews complained about is nearly gone and the graphics although good are nothing great in any way. My only real concern is the comentary and sound the comentary is robotic and often out of place and in superstar mode your coach repeats the same phrase often 2-3 plays in a row and often gets annoying but is still a good buy.

There are very few video games I feel the need to purchase on their release date. Although Madden has always been one of them. The anticipation of this game contibuted to my decision to by a PS Vita earlier this year. I wanted a good portable Madden game; we all know how subpar the PSP versions were. Finally a game with great graphics and gameplay, that I can take on the go. I was all set to purchase the PS3 and Vita versions on release date (I know, no cross-platform functionality -- disapointing but not enough to deter me from from the dual purchase). But right before release date I began reading professional reviews that dogged the game (6-6.5 average). So on release day I only purchased the PS3 version. But I feeling the tug and wanting to give it a go with the Vita version. The breaking point was when I realized that I already had $24 in my PS account, so I went for it and added funds and bought the game. And I am glad that I did. This is a great game. The knocks that the reviewers give where unsubstantiated. 1. THE GAME IS LIKE A RE-FRESH OF LAST YEARS CONSOLE MADDEN. and the problem wih this is what? It is better than last years version of Madden on the Vita, why? because there wasn't one. 2. THE FRAME RATE ISN't GOOD AND THE GAME SHUTTERS AT TIMES DURING CUT SCENES. Is this true? yes a little bit, but how many hardcore Madden players actually sit and watch the cut scenes anyhow? Once you've seen them, you've seen them. And it isn't as bad as some reviewers claim. 3. LAST YEARS STATS - THEY USED THE BILLS RECORD FROM 2010 INSTEAD of 2011. So what. The rosters are updateable on the PS network, get over it. Overall this is a great portable version of Madden and I only see it getting better in the future. Is it as good as its console brethren? No way. But the PS VITA isn't a console, if you want a solid portable gaming experience, you get a Vita, if you want a solid portable foootball game, you get Madden for Vita.

When i first got this it seemaed like a pretty good game. As I started playing it I started to uncover some of the negative sides of the game. First is the superstar mode. You cant do anything in this mode except play the games and the games glitch out all the time. You cant really edit your player,sign contracts. All you do is run, throw, or catch the ball. The franchise mode is ok. This mode has some problems as well. I do like the facty that you can play online in this game but it lags out alot like the entire game does!!!! I also have this game for xbox 360 and that game is so confusing that i dont even understand the whole franchise and superstar mode. I just hope that gamestop will let me return this game.

I haven't played a Madden games on years (PSP), but the Vita version was a pleasant surprise. The screen is beautiful on the Vita and the play by play is excellent. The motion can be a bit jerky at times, but the overall "playability" is absolutely outstanding. This game is a keeper!

Got the game yesterday and have played it about a dozen times. There are some lag during cut scenes. Gameplay is solid, and just enough modes to keep the game interesting and long lasting appeal. It seems to be madden 12 with 13 features on it. NO cross play for PS3, which is fine with me. Graphics are great and controls work well, except for tilt feature. Would recommend turning it off, load times aren't bad. For the money and portable football game I give it 4 1/2 stars out of 5. Hopefully they will come out with a patch for the lag issue. If you have vita I would pick this one up!

I got the demo and wow it lags so bad it's not even funny. You pick a play and it takes for ever to get to the line, then to snap the ball and throw it is bad cause it lags so bad. Hope the full game is better, cause the way they have it now it is unplayable.

Played the demo and boy was I unimpressed. Sure the touch screen controls are a nice add but the graphics are pretty pathetic. I mean fifa and the show look way better in the vita than this game. The gameplay is just like any other madden so their is nothing impressive here. Just pick this up for ps3 or xbox 360 so at least you will be satisfied.

I tried out the demo today on my vita, It was not a bad game. I am not a game reviewer so ill try to just keep it simple. The graphics on the cut scenes are amazing they are ps3 quality. But the graphis on the field while playing...a little better then psp. The diff (and its been awhile sense I have played madden on psp) the game play seems to be better the moving and over all playing seems improved the graphics on the other hand are not what I would have expected. I do like the game and will be buying it but I will say this is a mix of a port of psp and ps3 its not the same madden 13 you will play on ps3 or 360. One thing I did notice that I like is that you can use the touch screen to make a custom route when you want to. I did not play around with the controls to much and cant comment on the tackle or anything like that because well I dont play defense very well.

I was disappointed that they didn't make an NCAA Football 13 for the Vita, but this makes up for it. The graphics are great, the controls are perfect (tapping your receivers to pass the ball, motion sensor field goals and kick-offs, etc.), and the online should be awesome. If you're a Madden fan like me, then you've probably been searching for videos about it on the web. Either way, you'll be happy to know that the physics are enhanced to make it not so unrealistic. No more "super linebackers", or "warping footballs" (if you don't know what a "warping football" is, it's when the football is going in one direction, then moves straight to the receivers hands, as if it had warped.). But what I'm REALLY excited for, is the Madden Ultimate Team. I really, REALLY hope they include this.The online experience looks great too. And I've been hearing rumors that there's cross play, between Vita and PS3 system owners. Whether or not this is true, if you're looking forward to this as much as I am, message me on PSN. My PSN is HyperMumbo, by the way. See you around!
