Madden NFL 20 Retrospective
Ойындар
Madden NFL 20 released almost 4 years ago, and it’s a great example of a bad video game, carried in sales off of name alone. This game exemplifies everything wrong with the video game industry, and everything wrong with the NFL.

One more thing about the horrible EA/customer interaction. I bought Madden 20 through Origin because I stopped buying consoles after the PS3 and Madden 25 was my last Madden game. Everything was "fine" until I think in March of this year when Origin changed to EA Play Plus or whatever it is called and they decided to remove Madden 20 from the library. No problem, right? I could still play it offline, right? NOPE. The game MUST connect to the live server even to play offline modes. In fact, the game won't even boot. So I contacted EA about this and got people asking me about my son (I don't even have a son) and repeatedly asking me over and over again what the problem is. EA has a FAQ about this and their resolution is: To buy a "full" copy of the game from your favorite retailer. What.... I already OWN a FULL copy of this game that I bought from YOU. Nobody is selling the game online anymore because of the online dependency. Now, supposedly console players don't have this issue? And I wonder why that can play offline with no online connection while the PC version can't. I mean, I have all the files for the game and saved data on my end. It isn't like any of that is stored on their servers. The game just needs to handshake with the server for whatever reason.

I liked Madden 20 back then cause it was the first thing brought me in contact with football(I'm from Europe so football is not really popular here) . When I found you're channel I thought it cant be that bad. So I started playing NFL 2k 05, Madden 08 and Ncaa 14 and realized you where right. Today I can't imagen that I liked that game,but due to the fact it brought me to the Sport I now love and play it has a special place in my heart.

One thing I always hated about modern Madden (besides everything else) was how every player looks like they're built on the exact same frame as one another. I mean pardon me for wanting a Wide Receiver, Linebacker, and Left Tackle to have different body types. In any case, still a banger video as usual.

The play that made me hate tackling animations was when I did a fake fg and there was a hole open so I ran threw it but my player started running more towards the left into a tackle even when I tried going to the right
I loved playing Madden 20 during quarantine but calling it the best madden with basically 4 reused game modes is HUGE stretch😭
Thank you for posting this, I’m seeing a lot of revisionist history online about this game in recent months
Never stop making these videos, people need to keep being reminded how EA keeps letting everyone down with these Madden games, I still continue to play Madden NFL 07, ESPN NFL 2K4/5 on my PS2/PCSX2, and I don't think I will ever go to a new Madden ever again, last one I got was this Madden-I picked it up for $5 at a local game store, I turned it back in and was able to use that $5 for a copy of ESPN NFL Football (2K4) at same local game store...crazy that these PS2 era games are still better than new Maddens after 3 console jumps, PS2 to PS3 to PS4 and now to the PS5, it is really sickening that people still defend EA, again keep up the great work SDTV

You hit the nail on the head. I try and explain to my dad madden Hasn’t been good in ages it he still claims it’s really good and he has never touched anything but a sports game
Madden 20 was the first Madden I bought day one in 7 years or more. I fell for the hype, my friends sold me on it, the little CFB mode sounded amazing, I had a job so I figured lets buy it day one. I played it for 4 days and thought about returning it to only get half my money back. I couldnt believe how much it sucked, I was blown away. As a kid I loved the older 360 maddens and like I said I fell for the hype. I played it for four days and didnt play it ever again, and since I have not even thought about playing a new madden other then when I got Madden 23 for free last week through EA play, played for an hour and realized even paying 0 dollars for that game was too much money. Joke of a franchise now and I'm glad you are doing videos dunking on them.
This game was absolutely horrible but I have good memories from my own simplicity. I was in college and on a big time grind at the time and only had like 30 mins a day to myself in my room to play video games. I’d play like one or two quick games of a mycareer with a QB. Did a full 15 seasons with him and had a great time. But the game is bad
This was my last madden I played all year. Played a little bit of 21 then i gave up completely. I then sold all my owned madden games from m17 through 21. I will never play madden again until a new developer rises.

Yes. Ever since Madden NFL 06 Xbox 360 that Madden declined completely.
I'm not a huge sports fan, but I do love all of your insightful videos. These days, when you can easily play the old PS2 games on a laptop or even on your phone, who needs the new Maddens? Just get one of the old games where your favorite team had a good season, and have fun once again- with all the modes you've praised back in the game....like they were never dropped! :)
the issue is that the people who want madden 20 gameplay back are the ones who want it back bc it made ultimate team more arcade-like. the leaping linebackers and completely busted x factors made it fun for them. madden won't be realistic. likely ever but bare minimum until a competitor forces their hand. fingers crossed maximum or 2k can be that challenge, personally

I have never rage quit a game where I will never play it again until I got my hands on this game. I was doing the mycareer aspect of this game and after my 4th season, I didn't resign with my team or choose one of the 5 teams that offered me contracts during the offseason because I thought I'd be able to have more options after a certain week. I did not. It legitimately forced me to retire without warning. 4 seasons and my career was over. No warning, and no chance to continue.

And I decided to not resign with the Jets because I want to play on a different team. But what do ya know, a 25 year old, 99 ovr QB with 4 rings, 4 mvps and amazing stats did not get a single contract offer from ANY other team and was forced to retire.

I only tried it out because I needed something to do during the pandemic. The last madden I played before that was Madden 17. All I can say I was disappointed…
Imagine if those Madden game glitches happened during REAL NFL games...what would happen next?
11:40 That's such a good point. I used to play sports games ONLY when growing up. In high school I started playing Fallout: New Vegas and was impressed with the detail and choice. Then I made the mistake of playing NHL 18 expecting the same level of depth. Not even close and that's why I barely play sports games released after 2012
One of my memories of this was their MUT mode lacked 99 overall cards for good players, and all they gave it to was players who were hurt all year or theme diamonds
Years ago I use to be astonished by the lack of quality in FIFA games and this was in the mid-2000s, same with Madden even their PS2 versions were far inferior to 2k. EA has been making trash forever, its just that they have gotten worst/better? at it.
Great video 💯 The leaping linebackers have been a problem since the PS3 era Madden's ball trajectory is too low in a lot of Madden games. Linebackers will leap 10 feet in the air to pick you off. The last great Madden game to me was Madden 2005.

I’ll never forget getting Madden 19 for free and during a franchise game one of my defensive lineman became invisible…
When they updated scouting. I think the mistake is on us assuming the scouting update was ever intended to improve Franchise mode. Honestly ask yourself if any changes implemented into Franchise mode have been an improvement. Now ask yourself if that’s an honest mistake or an intentional detriment that essentially improves other modes by knocking another down. Crazy right.
Using Zeke in this game is like using a cheat code
I can't believe we have had a whole generation of sports games (PS4) that just sucks. The generation before it was better.
ngl next to madden 17 20 might be one of my favorite from that gen especially now that im on pc with mods hopefully with 24 most likely being next gen i can finally upgrade

I don't know if you'll see this comment but if you can, could you possibly do a Madden NFL 09 (PS2) retrospective? Granted it is a Madden 08 PS2 2.0 but it still greatly holds up. Franchise Mode is immaculate as always, with new decades scoring. This was also the first PS2 madden to introduce the QB Avoidance Stick. Also, it's the last madden to have Historic Teams, along with the 2007 Packers being a playable team.
the reason its "the last great madden" is because it was the last time ultimate team was fun😭 These days I'm a lot more into franchise and mut isnt interesting to me but in madden 20 i played it like every day. there was a lot to grind, all of it was fun, and the gameplay was really fun to me.

Whatever happened to the jumbo trons? I remember rewinding plays on old maddens And the action would be shown on the jumbo tron at the same time. For years now the jumbo trons have just been the team logos.
This was the year of the unstoppable Eric Dickerson. (Also the linemen STILL dont know how to block)
Madden 02 is my favorite. All about angles & momentum, over pursuing incorrectly is costly
I wish they would bring the old scouting back. At least have an option to use it.
I will never defend madden 20 as a good madden because it clearly isn’t, but i do love it because it got me through quarantine.
Pls you must do Madden 16..... The Last Ride .

I put Madden 16 in the other day and holy crap. Bruh that shit looks better Madden 23. Obviously the graphics on the series x are better but 16 is freaking gorgeous compared to everything since. And the presentation is better and it plays better. Receivers will actually turn upfield after they catch ball unlike more recent games where they just die if a defender is nearby. Franchise mode is kind of a joke though. My team overall is a 90-95 every year. I have like 8 first round picks every year. Players take way too little money. The ability to change progression speed, add traits and manually control ratings is OP and the game prep is a little too tedious. It's not remotely challenging. But you do get trade offers which is nice.
MADDEN NEEDS A CBS,ABC,NBC,FOX, SCOREBOARD
BRUH!!!!!! The arm bar with Elliott was beyond broken! I still have clips on my ps4 of me stiff arming entire teams then scoring
