cant stop the pass |
| Big Stud from Nevada Usa says (9/Nov/2003): |
When ever i paly madden weather it 2002, 2003, 2004, i always will give up 300 yards passing and -10 yards rushing. and the QB will only complete 10-15 passes. its all about the big play!
I can never stop it. ill hold a team to 100 yards passing and 10pts till the 4th quarter then all of a sudden its all out big plays from there. there will be an 80 or 60 yard pass that just jacks me up. and its not like my DB falls down or misses a tackle or i send him on a blitz. he just dosent cover the WR. so why does this happen. i mean its with any team wheater its the number 1 or 2 or even #3 QB i cant stop this pass.

It was Aight |
| Hype from Small Town U No Shepherd, Texas USA says (2/Jan/2004): |
Aight see in this game It got a little better than 2003 The Owner Mode and as you can see it took the changing the logo color from NCAA and the playmaker I like it, But What it really needs to do is bring the legends back because that was one of the tight parts of 2002,and 2003 like my man Barry Sanders and John Elway, and in this game and 2003 I like the way theres the way to export the players from NCAA But what they should do is when you Create - a - Player You start him from Scratch not from all 99.But U No This was a aight game graphics getting better O yeah this game in Training Mode needs more Training Abilities U No I'm Out.

Madden 2004 is the best thing that has ever happened to game systems |
| Chris Smalls from Seattle, USA says (23/Sep/2003): |
No doubt about it, this is the best game ever. Madden 2004 is much more realistic this year than any other year, they have exact player like features and reactions, and the coaches look exactly like they do in real footfall. the only way you can get better football than this is to go to 1 of the 32 stadiums on Sunday and play with the pro's. The owner mode is another great thing about the game, your in control of every thing.
|
Madden 2004 is easily the best one so far. |
| Michael from Marshall, Ill, USA says (18/Nov/2003): |
Madden 2004 has new features such as Owner Mode, and better options on Create-A-Team. I love the new playmaker control, and there is always a person open to throw to. If you want a good game to waste away the time, I highly suggest Madden 2004. This is the best football game ever for any system.
|
this game is awesome and you would have to agree |
| Marshall from Boring,OR. says (30/Sep/2003): |
I have only had this game for a short time but it is awesome.there are new things that you can do like playmaker control and owner mode.at first I was not very psyched about football games but now I really like playing this game and thats a exmple of how good this game is.also me and my big bro. really like the songs played during the menu.the game also has good graphics and makes the players and coaches look real.I also thought that playmaker was a really good idea to put in this great game.and not once I thought the gameplay was unfair gliched or just plain stupid. man I am running out of words to tell you people how good a game this is but there are many good things about this game but I will try to write everything I can think of.this game also works on xbox live so you can plan and play together in different places whitch is very cool.my favorite team is the 49ers.my two favorite guys are owens and garcia and johnsons ok. and thats all I have to say.buh-bye yall

I Have Seen True Happiness, It's Called Playmaker! |
| Sal Lagonia from Yorktown, New York. USA says (6/Oct/2003): |
The Playmaker feature on Madden '04 is a feature all football games should have. I've always wanted to lead recievers, direct blockers and direct my entire defense with a single button.
Owner mode is incredable. You have no idea how much fun it is to change your consession prices until you've done it. What about your ability to MOVE YOUR FRANCHISE?!?! I started as owner of the Panthers and hated my fairweather fans, so I moved up north to Washington, designing my own stadium, making the city pay half and even leased seating to local corperations! I even was able to hire Vinny Testeverde as my head coach a few years in!
The only thing this game is missing is a Hall of Fame. You go through some impressive seasons with some of your players, and you expect them to be inducted, then nothing.
When all is said and done though, this is by far the greatest football game I have ever played. Thank you Jon and EA sports for this wonderfull work of art.

Best Game Ever with a few Faults |
| Madden Fan from Defiance, Ohio says (24/Nov/2003): |
Madden is awesome, but there are a few faults. I love the new owner mode and playmaker additions. However, the game has one major problem. I am about four years into my franchise and I have two cornerbacks with an overall rating above 90. However, they have trouble stopping the pass. My defense allows about 50 yards a game on the ground, but they are ranked 32 overall because I give up about 350 passing yards a game. Is there any way to stop the opposing team's passing offense? I also import players from NCAA Football, but they have no names. You can edit their information and add names, but then their personal data (Year drafted,etc) gets screwed up. Is there any way to fix this?

MADDEN FOOTBALL IS MADDEN FOOTBALL, DON'T COMPLAIN BECAUSE THE COMPUTER GETS TIRED OF LOOSING, IT WANTS TO WIN TO, WHY SHOULD YOU WIN EVERY SINGLE GAME?? |
| THE GRIGGUL8R from JACKSONVILLE, NC USA says (30/Jan/2004): |
Madden 04 is awesome of course, but with its greatness comes headaches. I have read about people complaining about the Playmaker controls on offense being unfair, come on control your defense yourself, don't be scared to do bad, with practice you will be unstopable, no matter what play they audible to.
I have read about people saying that it is not fair on All Madden against the computer, if you audible yourself and take the time to learn them and use your audible's you can fool the computer, but would a real team be fooled everytime, would they really win every game???? No they would not, it does not take perfection to win a Super Bowl, but it does take planning.
Some have complained about the defensive plays sucking, I have discovered you can stop anything by using Cover 2. Even big ol' Mike Vick, I know how to use him and how to stop him, hit him enough and he will go out of the game. Using Cover 2 double qb spy, play it tight by bringing your secondary in and shift both lines outward. If you have to replace one of your down linemen with the fastest player on your team, he don't have to be strong, because he will hardly ever get blocked, especially if you know your apponent is going to scramble with them.
Keep in mind, explore all aspects of the VIDEO GAME, not the game on the television. If you want a realistic game, play evenly matched teams, and acctually put feild posistion factor in. PUNT THE BALL.
From the man who has never lost a madden tournament, but has lost before...peace

madden does ot again!!!!! |
| matt from Scranton USA says (21/Feb/2004): |
this game is by far the best game i have ever played with the new owner mode and playmaker control it let's you have retired players be part of your coaching staff this game also has great detail when you're playing against the computer, announcers also say the names of created teams too. this game has great graphic and good music. i give this game an overall perfect 10 for all of these new features this game is great to play all year long no matter what sport season it is
this game is the best xbox game there is out today it is far better than HALO or any other game you might like
so youhave to ask yourself one question how does madden make these great gamesevery year

Awesome... |
| Thomas from Kalispell, USA says (16/Aug/2003): |
This game is so awesome... I messed around with all the options and stuff for like 40 minutes before I even got into a game, and i was already in love.. Gameplay is awesome, owner mode is awesome, training camp is awesome... Only downfall for this game (From my point of view) is the commentary, but that is my least favorite part of all Madden games.. When you play 2004 you will hear some exact lines that you heard in madden 2002! When I got NCAA football 2004, the commentary was much better than 2003, and I was optimistic that madden would do the same. But they didn't, you still get to listen to Jon point out the COMPLETELY obvious, and they dont have many saying for when someone reaches a milestone, like ncaa fb 2004 did.
All around this is a GREAT game.. And I recommend it to everyone, this is a must have for any football fans!

Nothin comes close point blank |
| Dre from Williamsport,PA says (18/Aug/2003): |
Madden is flat out the best football game out. The comparisons to Sega's 2K series and XBOX's Fever titles is ridiculous. Madden is a football dynasty. People say 2K's hits are better, no there is nothing good about plays where you go for a catch and before you get there its already decided what and how everything will happen. Sega makes good sports games but they need to leave the football department to the pros. Madden is the true football players dream you can create on the fly no pocket is even needed. You dont have to worry about your blocker picking up the wrong guy in the open field or your reciever not being where you want him. You have controll with the play maker controll. On defense if you thought run but your opponent is gonna pass you dont have to worry. You can commit to the run or pass after the play without time eating audibles. you can cheat your safetys to help on mismatches all over the field. You can switch the direction of a running play without letting anyone know it. Its great. If you hate the high prices at games and know how much you would pay for a hot dog or beer, you can change it to your liking with the new owner mode. You can do more than sign players and a head coach how about every position in the coaching staff you can do it all. Madden is the king in football all other titles should give up. Madden is the best and wont stop gettin better.

Turnovers |
| MAchine from USA says (27/Oct/2003): |
To many fumbles when ur rank is on the line....very disturbing after playing for an hour, and u fumble at the end of a game...dumb!! also, there needs to be better run defences and plays that stop those stupid offenses that throw quick passes before you defenders can get to them that get them 6 yard gaines.
|
Unrealistic ...But I still play it everyday! |
| Shan from wheaton says (7/Jan/2004): |
Madden 2004 will make you laugh cry and brake two controllers like I have.
Trying to play against the computer in All Madden mode is a joke. I don't care what offensisive play you call, they (meaning computer) is always in the perfect defense to stop it, I dont care what defense you call, the computer will audible to the perfect play to beat it. And lo and behold if you happen to get a lead, all of a sudden you start throwing pics and funbling like crazy, but not the computer. You can only beat the computer in All Madden mode if the computer lets you. I can go on, like all of a sudden my offensive line stops blocking, and incredible one hand interseptions! Cone on. I hope the people at E.A. sports will correct problems like this. Don't get me wrong I have beaten the computer in All Madden mode, but only twice out of about 150 tries.
If I can give somebody a tip when playing. Play with the Bears, for some reason they are the best all around team in the game. Brain Urlacher has unreal speed and will stop most running plays and intercept any pass thrown in his direction, and the secondary plays well also. And on Defense A-Train takes about three guys to bring down and Kordell stweart is the second fastest running Quarterback in the game behind Vick. And then if that's not enough Marty Booker pretty much cathes everything! Happy Playing

Can you stop the long pass??!!?? |
| Travis liedle from spokane,WA , USA says (31/Dec/2003): |
You know when the computer is going to throw the ball. All you got to do is pick prevent shift line backers to the outside and the line to the outside. run the MLB write up the middel after the QB will pressure him to throw. even if u dont pressure him enough to through write away. usaly all are coverd and u get a sack. any ways madden 2004 is the BEST football game hands down. i have played them all and no other football game holds a candel to madden. also if any of u madden players think you are good runners. Try this 536 yards rushing 7 tds, all madden, 5 min quarters.

perfect |
| A gamer from largo usa says (18/Nov/2003): |
this game was perfect. new owner mode is awesome. i love foolin around with my coaching staff and prices. the relocating and stadium name is very interesting. gameplay is realistic, you don't kill anyone unless they turn the ball over.the new playbooks make games easier. i also like when a player retires he becomes a coach.
|
Why do you play? |
| J-rome from Santa Fe, NM, USA says (20/Jun/2004): |
most other football games are designed so you can compete no matter how bad u suck. madden has no computer assistance and the strategic parts are more important than anything. if you watch football alot and play football games alot, madden is THE closest to the real thing. ESPN, Fever, NFL2k and most other football games are more arcade style to me. Madden is never fun for my cousins and friends cuz they have no chance of winning. In, madden you have to actually pay attention to the defense you pick and where U're personal is positioned. Most other games u win by using the same 5 or 6 plays everytime. and All Madden i a bitch to beat unless u're team is better than the rest.
