this game is unreal |
| Rob from Bloomington, IL says (14/Aug/2003): |
This game is soo addicting. I've been playing Madden football games since 93 and they never fail to amaze me. NFL Gameday and NFL 2K4 have no chance at this years' Madden 2004. From owner mode to online play, this game is the full package. The commentary is much better. You can tell that they have worked on this pretty hard and its paying off for EA sports. Its going to be hard to top this game. Game of the year maybe???

this game is wild |
| A gamer from new york, new york, USA says (15/Aug/2003): |
i love the new madden 2004 game because it has everything from creating your own team to being the owner of your own team. the graphics are amazing better than any other game i have seen. the only complant i have is the screens that pop up and you cant see your HB until u hike the ball

Franchiser |
| Jim from State of Bliss says (15/Aug/2003): |
Great game overall, some upgrades have taken place in the franchise mode since 2003. You can't sign free agents just to trade for draft picks like in 2003 (free agency takes place after the draft), this makes your draft pick decisions much more critical. On the topic of draft picks make a unpopular pick and hear the boo-birds (now I know how the Jets ownership feels), when signing a player you can try and save cap room by giving a signing bonus, trading players has also improved a meter showing which team is getting the better deal is listed. Under owner mode Art Modell would be proud losing money on your team after two years heck move them, you can control ticket prices, parking, food, and advertising budget. The objective is objective is make -- MONEY. Also, under owner mode you get to sign Head coaches, Off. and Def. coordinators, and special team coach. Awful music though

PLATINUM!!!1 |
| shane from OakView, CA, U.S. of A says (15/Aug/2003): |
THIS GAME IS THE BEST FOOTBALL GAME OF AL TIME! I seriously urge anyone who doesnt own this game to go out and purchase it now. the graphics are insane, playmaker control makes it the most realistic game out there. My only complaint is that there aren't enough hours in the day to play it.

I HATE THIS GAME! Nah... I'm just playin' with ya... |
| Tim from CT, USA says (15/Aug/2003): |
Pro- This game really brings the new aspect to the "Foot Ball Game" normally sport games get repetitive very quickly since it's basically the same thing as last year's version. NOT ANY MORE!!! the play maker control will let you get more into the game. I dont even know how I played other football games without it. The Graphic hasn't changed much, but they did make some improvment. People actually have tattoos(now this might not be a big deal, but it really makes the games feel real). The frenchise mode has also improved; THE OWNER MODE ROCKS!!!!!! I personally think that this really seperates madden from other football games. Now you can really get into the game by changing not only the players, but the coaching staff, jersey, and the stadium. Also when your favorite player retires, you can hire him to be your coach.
Con- No offence to the AAF, Blink 182, The Roots and so on, but EA trax this year REALLY STINKS. the good thing is that you can just turn it off, get the sterio and shove in your favorite CD. also, you would think that EA will learn that no one want to listen to Madden... I guess they can't fire him because he is the name of the game, but for god sakes does he get annoying?!?! I mean it really doesn't help when your friend is beating you by 35 to 7 and John Madden talks about how dumb your choice was.
Final Thought- Madden 2004 is a GREAT GAME; no matter how annoying John madden is. If you are a football fan, you are going to love it. If your not much of a fan, but you just want to try it, there has never been a better time to start

whoa..... |
| Matt from houston,tx,usa says (16/Aug/2003): |
the guys at ea really put an awsome game together this time.when they mean its in the game its really in the game.playmaker is insane, the online tournements and rankin is awsome, and in franchise mode u have total control of ur team i mean total lol.but there is one problem in the game i think its a glitch or somthing when ever u get a penalty the reffs mouth doesnt move til the last 3 seconds. i have bought madden games since i cant even remember and this is the best football game ever. even nfl 2k2 and all thos other games are just boring compared to this.they have so much stuff in this game i dont know if they can think of anythin else to put in the next madden. this is definitly a MUST HAVE game....

The best game out there |
| mike hunt from San Jose says (16/Aug/2003): |
who ever doesnt like this game must be a real hard ass. everything about this new Madden 2004 is great. Madden's a pimp for having a game this good. I'll challenge anyone over broadband one-on-one mono-e`-mono cause i'm the greatest madden player there ever was and ever will be.

SPEECHLESS! |
| Nick from Port Richey, Florida says (16/Aug/2003): |
Okay, first of all the graphics on this game are just phonomenal, and the game-play is so advanced and unique its actually very cool. I think the two best features EA put into this game was the Owner Mode and Training Camp in the beginning of the season, I think its awesome that i can tell people how much i want them to pay to come watch the games and everything like that. Another thing that is so amazing is that you can play it over and over again and never get sick of it...MADDEN 2004 RULES!!!

Off DA HEEZE! |
| DA BONE....smasher..... from Atlanta,GA USA says (17/Aug/2003): |

ALMOST perfect |
| Garrison from ATL says (17/Aug/2003): |
the madden 2004 is the best madden yet. as of now, it is takes the words "total control" to the fullest. AND I LOVE IT! i've been playin it non stop so far, and there are no flaws except for one. when u wanna trick someone for and onside kick, u have to wait for the other team to set up if they catch you. it should have it so if thier not ready in time, u can kick it. people who play the game know how aggitating it is! if that glitch ic changed, it will be perfect. the playmaker takes a while to perfect, but it is TOTALLY worth it! someone e-mail me so that i can find out where i can get that thing to play online with. madden 2004 is da king of all games! ATL hoe! SWD 4 Life! BIAAAAAAA!

best madden playa out therre |
| darius from conneaut,ohio says (17/Aug/2003): |
ite first of all this is the best football game out there.owner mode is awesome what else can you ask for i mean you can relocate upgrade and even build a new stadium....and for the idiots that think comebacks come in the 4th quarter they dont....i have awesome cornerbacks and julius peppers and jason taylor ate the end the only defense i play is quarter....strong blits the opponents average rushng is 66 yards
there passing 235 not to bad if you ask me....
ive only lost one game it was in the super bowl to buccaners and i agree with who ever brought up the turnovers i was up bye 21 and then i had 3 fumbles and 2 for touchdowns it waqs crap i was pissed but except for that AWESOME

excellent |
| James Jefferson Wright from Albany, Georgia USA says (17/Aug/2003): |
My only beef is that, in previous maden games, there was a daytime progression (shadows moving across the field, sunset to nightfall, etc. as the game wore on). This version does not have that. That is the only facet, however, in which this game is less up to date than previous versions.

Da' Bomb Baby, Da' Bomb |
| Greg H. from St. Louis, Missouri, USA says (17/Aug/2003): |
New owner mode, better franchises, I CAN'T say enough about Madden NFL 2004. I once played Madden NFL 2002 for the Playstation, instead of hitting each other the players went THRU each other. However now in Madden NFL 2004 the graphics are much, much, much better. The new owner mode gives me a great felling as if I'm a Team president, the new team profile where you choose your favorite team. (However, I, as a St. Lousian, chose the St. Louis Rams.) To me it was awesome having Marshall Faulk as the coverboy of Madden NFL 2003. But, this game is so much better. It might cost $50, but it's worth it. I say BUY THIS GAME!

The best madden ive seen yet |
| Kris from wheeling wv, usa says (17/Aug/2003): |
I believe Madden 2004 is the best Madden game yet for the simple fact of owner mode. the fact you can rebuild stadiums, relocate your teams and set prices for everything is the best idea yet. The graphics on it are insane. The playmaker control thing was an awesome idea. I also like the fact i can change songs on the soundtrack i dont like and switch to the ones i do.The rap songs are pretty much annoying because they are all remixes. the sound on it is cool because the hits sound real the fun factor i give it a 10 for sure because i can sit and play it for hours on end I think the fact the created teams and created stadiums are more detailed in 2004 than they were ever before. i am a san francisco 49ers fan but because of the skill level the have michael vick at i play the game as the atlanta falcons everytime or i will go to franchise and trade jeff garcia and a round 2 pick for michael vick. and i will trade my middle linebacker and a round 1 pick strictly for brian urlacher of the chicago bears. that is all i have to say so i cat wait for madden 2005.

| brandon from new orleans, (louisiana), USA says (18/Aug/2003): |
madden 2004 is a great game. but for all you garbage players out there that just like to throw deep to a reciever well that dont work on the 2004 you gotta know ur s**t and u gotta run real plays.i was the champ in 2003 and still holding it down in 2004.madden 2004 has great animations great new features like owner's box.more throwback jerseys,great new plays. and this year the have everybodys speed like its supposed to be.this year you get to unlock secret games like the nba live 2004,ncaa 2004 and more.

Here comes fluke plays 2004 edition |
| Stomper156 from ST.Catharines Ont. says (18/Aug/2003): |
madden football has a great franchise mode even though when you scout players you don't get any stats. The gameplay itself has the classic fluke play mode, i was playing the eagles online it was 3 and 29 the eagles were on there own 5 i called deep cover and McNabb made the miracle through and Pinkston the miracle catch. I'm sorry but this kind of thing happens on a regular basis which takes away from the game. If you want fun ya maybe realistic simulation not a chance, It also feels that if you d'ont use playmaker you get penalized you can call a run defense move the team to the side of the run but the back the back can still get 5 yds unless you bring the house.I think there should be some kind of tendancy awareness for your team if a guy does the same thing over and over your team A.I should increase lets face it you've played those guys that have three plays all game .

A Great Game Full Of Bull |
| A gamer says (18/Aug/2003): |
Madden 2004 is rediculous. The computer cheats constantly. I fumbled five times in the first minute on offense and defense. The computer knows every single play that you pick, and if you audible, they shift their defense to the correct position. Their running game is a bunch of crap too. Their players are faster than yours, and they can break 100 tackles on 1 play. They intercept everything, and if they don't, you are getting sacked for a loss. In 2003, you could hardly ever get a sack, and now every play is a sack or a bullcrap rediculous cheating play by the computer. Its not the computer all the time. I think it is the game too. I played against my roommate. Out of eight passes I through, 5 were intercepted. In another game, I was losing 51-14 in the fourth quarter. I went on to score 35 points in four minutes, and only lost by a touchdown. He could not do a thing. This game is goofy. I love Madden to death, but this game is out of control.

Over-rated. |
| Waddup from Boston USA says (19/Aug/2003): |
I just come off of playing Madden 03 and couldn't wait to open my new Madden 04. I popped it in, set up my account and before you know I was online. What a disappointment. In my first game I threw 4 ints and fumbled 3 times. Is this supposed to be realistic? Some of the INT's were of the "miraculous" kind Pretty much uncatchable even by Superman. This game just makes it easier for the people who rely solely on the computer to play defense, they just sit back and wait for a pick. The gameplay is faster sometimes too fast(Vick was the opponents leading rusher).The blitzes are faster, the secondary coverage is tighter. One thing I do like is when they tell you if the ball was intercepted or was a "user pick" you can tell if the computer got it or if you got it. Maybe I need more time to get used to it. The playmaker control works pretty good on switching sides for the run other than that it is pretty useless.
