Madden NFL 18 

 

It is such a shame to see the Madden NFL franchise sink into failing review score status. What is EA Sports doing? They are sabotaging themselves with Madden NFL 18. Their PR and Marketing failures has already been documented. The decline of the NFL has also already been documented. The game play in Madden NFL 18 is still broken. Although slightly better than last year.

I had to turn off all the offensive music in Madden NFL 18. The announcers repeat themselves and still have situational mistakes. Like when I am winning 41-0 in the fourth quarter, and ten seconds to go. The other team punts and the announcers talk about what I am going to do in this drive. How about take a knee to end the torture of that game? How about put the other team out of their misery?

Longshot is a short failure. At the time this review was written only half of players tried this boring quick time event story. There are plays that are run in certain parts of that mode. With all of the violence, bad language, and more I thought this game should be rated thirteen and older only. How does EA Sports get an ‘E’ rating from the lenient ESRB? The online game mode obsession drops the value of this game even more.

I ran into glitches in Madden NFL 18. I also found on the easy mode I could get a touchdown in a play or two. We can not change difficulty mid game, mid season, or mid franchise. How lame is that? Overalls can decide the winner on two player games when the players are even in skills. The presentation stays nice. I am still not fond of these announcers.

In my opinion Madden NFL 18 is worth no more than ten dollars brand new. Longshot is short, and the game play is still messed up. I am so bummed about how bad Madden NFL 18 actually is. I enjoy playing football video games. I did not enjoy playing this one. So much in Madden NFL 18 needs to be fixed - even teams, overalls, juking constantly, breaking tackles forever, and more.
