still stealing money bunch of crooks.

Just put in some garbage modes that existed in games 10 years ago (superstar mode, combine) to come across as new features while still giving out a garbage game.

I can proudly say I haven’t bought a Madden or FIFA game in close to a decade now. The gameplay and mechanics of both franchises are just terrible.

I used to love madden, but the last one I bought was madden 07 with shawn alexander on the cover for ps3.

madden is obviously trash with no competition for damn near 20 years. same thing is occurring at 2k with NBA 2k and their lack of competition.

like can we at least get NBA streets back???

in 2023, NO SPORTS games should be $70 each year with microtransactions. make one good game, and charge a nominal amount for the roster update. this way they don't have to invest many resources to continuously re-make the game on an annual basis and tweak the controls.

can't u just download an updated roster on madden 23?

I know u can do it on 2k.
Those rookies would be created players with no authenticity.

I’m a head to head guy I need the rookies, uniforms, trades/signings done all that

:mjlol:

Breh they have no authenticity right now other than face scans for the top 10 picks

Madden sells on NFL licensing and they barely exercise that well

There’s game developers out there better than these nikkas out there, if the new college game is ass I’m not tripping cuz I’ll just keep playing revamped

I agree, its not like graphics are that much substantial year after year.

No other videogames franchises beside sports release every year. And its just a big money grab.

I bought madden last for 20 bucks in like january and hated it.

Its the 2024 version of Madden

Yet there’s still not

- multiple broadcast teams
- an immersive superstar mode
- custom release packages and top of route moves
- no Park or Street football mode
- no Replayable NFL moments
- no custom playbooks


Among many things u would think a NFL game in 2024 would have

2K5 had 1st person pov football :gucci:
