Great indeed! And here come two facts about the game: 1. Why is it called 'football' when the ball is not being kicked very much around at all It is because the oval ball is in fact about one foot in length! 2. Where did the name Super Bowl have its origin

great game

American sports games are something that I have always enjoyed playing on games consoles, right back to when I used to play the old NBA games on the Sega Megadrive. As my appreciation for American Football started to grow during University, I got into the Madden NFL games.

My grandson was very happy with this. I have no clue how to play it, so I'll take his word on it.

Bought it for my 10 yr old son for Christmas and he loves it. Looks so real.

Touchdown.

Improved AI on defensive plays; New features to enhance running plays; Franchise mode has all the right additions

Unenthusiastic commentary; Player movement after a tackle looks odd

I could make a million jokes about infamously conservative LA Rams coach Jeff Fisher calling for two with time expiring and a playoff berth on the line in Madden 17's prologue. It's a flatout crazy moment that could potentially say all kinds of unflattering things about Madden's realism.

Madden NFL 17 certainly isn't a release for the series that introduces sweeping changes for the annual franchise. Smart tweaks to familiar modes, a slew of accesibility features, and a presentation that continues to impress, it's hard to knock this year's package for what it contains.
