remember when madden was a great game ?

Played 25 on Game Pass.

The physics seem weird and the game just felt off. I haven't played in a long time but it just didn't seem fun to me.

Also having to upgrade every individual player with badges etc is tedious

honestly since next gen its been complete GARBGAGE

I think the best Maddens of all time were 04 and 05 on Ps2


it had a fluidity and skillcap that the current games have never had

NCAA 04 was amazing too

I dont remember exactly but once 05 came out it was never the same either

Haven't been serious about Madden since the PS2 and Tony Bruno on the franchise / owner mode.

This was my first Madden game since 09 and I had a ball. Folks need to stop buying the shyt every year. Give it around 4 years before you play a new one.

I was shook playing against NFL2K Manning, that game was one of the few where great players felt organically dangerous.

Pretty much .. it’ll feel fresh to you if you take a couple years off

The physics are definitely shyt. It scratches the itch but id rather play NCAA 25 and even that gets old quickly.

What was the rationale for scrapping franchise mode (same issue with 2K)?
