  • Madden 12 is still one of my favorite Madden games, and to me, it's easily the best that ever released on the PS3/Xbox 360. This game gave me a fun franchise experience, and one day, I might need to return for one more series.
    On my MrHurriicaneLP channel I make sports gaming lets play series. My series focus on building teams and players from sports like baseball and football. I play games such as Madden 22, NCAA Football 14, MLB The Show 22 and more.

    Franchise Mode peaked with this one. Created teams were a thing. Free agency and the draft were amazing at the time plus the team run outs made the game feel way more alive than any presentation style the game does today

    8:08 - I am back again to talk about Madden 25. Player intros. These were amazing in Madden 12 and were saved for the post season games in Madden 25 to make them feel more special. This is also because they changed the Madden 25 intros to match a CBS style like we see on TV complete with their top team - Nantz and Simms "Hello friends".

    Hey Cane. Totally irrelevant here, but HAD to tell you that I was at the Angels-Twins game last night and when Emilio Pagan came into the game in extras, I immediately told my friends this Twins fan I know HATES Pagan for his perchance for allowing baserunners and runs. (My Padres fan friend feels as burned as you do btw.)
    And then of course, Pagan serves up the 11th inning walk-off!! The hate is justified. Godspeed to you, Twins Fan Cane.

    This was the last Superstar mode I actually liked. Having you create your player then having them get drafted to a random team instead of choosing your team added to a sense of realism that I think has been missed from that mode. I always test out the Face of the Franchise mode each year, but it just doesn't match up to this.

    A series idea I've always thought about is doing a series where you take the team from each year that had the greatest turn around and try to replicate it. Think like the Chad Pennington Dolphins who miraculously turned around a terrible roster into a playoff spot. It's a short season series we're all you have to do is play an offseason and one season. Can you do better than real life? Maybe even flip it and take the teams that had the hardest fall off, like the 2020 Patriots. Can you prevent the collapse?

    Madden 25 (14) has an even better franchise mode, and I will die on that hill. Many people didn't give 25 a chance because Madden 13 pissed everybody off. If EA had just released 12 again with updated rosters while they worked through 13 and just released 25, it would probably be seen as the best.
    Edit: 4:29 and there it is. Dunking on Madden 13 and never gave 25 a chance because of 13. I was right.

    I had last played Madden '02 back when it was new, and then during the start of the pandemic in 2020 I had a hankering to play Madden again so I got the newest one... I was surprised how many features it DIDN'T have and how little the gameplay changed! I play NBA 2K regularly and a NBA game from 2002 is way less advanced than a modern one, the games have changed substantially even if releases can seem the same when compared between subsequent years, but Madden barely seemed to grow at all (and had a lot less franchise features, as far as I could tell).
    Pretty quickly I realized you could do crossing patterns all day and never get stopped by the CPU, and then I got bored with it.
    2012 sounds like what I was expecting to get from a modern day Madden, like being able to make your own teams and uniforms and whatnot. You could do that back in the day, but for whatever reason they cut out established but fun features in the modern Maddens (maybe 2021/2022 Madden is different but going by how they're received I assume they're not).

    • @davidchandler5432
      @davidchandler5432 Před rokem

      (NBA 2K has lots of its own problems that I could go into detail on all day, but the gameplay has at least changed a lot. Still, the recent NBA 2Ks also suffer from missing features and some gameplay tweaks that I think are bad. Personally, the last good NBA 2K in my opinion is 2K16. What I'd really want is to have college basketball games again!)

    25:12 - Regarding potential: This is what was both good and bad about progression. Players don't get better because they play well. they play well because they got better. You get better at practice, at the gym, studying film. Not because you put up stats. Potential is a way of simulating that. Now your A potential 74ovr backup QB can progress while you start your 81ovr veteran. in PS2 madden, players in the depth chart were completely fucked in progression, whereas potential allowed rookies buried as backup s and third string players can improve and earn their place in the league just like what happens in real life.
    Madden 25, here I go again, found a very good solution with XP that is earned in combination with you performance and practice and matching the scheme of the coach to the scheme/style of the player to get the best out of them.
