My very first madden. And as you know, the very first time is special. Oh yeah, that's not the right word. And everything about this game is special. Starting from the “wonderful” ignite engine. Thanks to this engine, after every play I constantly watched a circus, not football: the players got stuck in each other, the limbs of the players with their lives and spun like crazy, every long pass ended in an interception because, thanks to the engine, the defensive player, not even the tallest, with nothing jumped to some incredible height and received the ball, and the ball itself, after the pass, could easily get stuck between the players. There is also absolutely no difference between players in the game. A huge, bulky tight end plays the same as a nimble, speedy receiver, and elite QBs like Manning or Rodgers are no different from any rookie, even when played on the highest difficulty level. Absolutely all players feel like flimsy, clumsy dummies without any weight.
Franchise mode is simply nonsense: team management, training, the games themselves during the season, the draft and that’s it. But then they immediately poke you in the face with a mode with packs - ultimate team. What is really important to EA. But the game also has its advantages: a song from twenty one pilots (because the rest of the soundtrack is rap), and also after Madden nfl 16 there is a desire to know what those old games from the ps2 era were like because the new ones are simply terrible. Damn son, this is a very bad game.
