Madden NFL 20
SCORE: 79
Family Friendly Gaming was given a retail
version of Madden NFL 20 on the Xbox One for this review. I am torn on
this years Madden. There are things I like about this football game and
things I am not that big on. Every year the Madden video games focus on
something new and different. This year Madden NFL 20 focuses on making
big plays. Madden NFL 20 is extremely focused on offense.
Madden NFL 20 looks good and is really fun to play on offense. Defense
is much harder to play this year. I would rack up six or more sacks on
the Rookie mode in past Madden’s. This year I had trouble getting one
sack. I would do everything right, but I could not get past the
blockers. This area of realism is lacking now. It is a blast breaking
three to five tackles and running it in for a touchdown.
If the defense gangs up on an offensive player with the ball then they
will go down. I also noticed Madden NFL 20 is easier than past Madden
games. I bumped up the difficulty to Pro and was still winning easily. I
love the announcers in Madden NFL 20. They are really hitting their
stride finally. There is offensive music in Madden NFL 20. Thankfully
that can be turned off in the Settings.
Madden NFL 20 includes numerous modes (many of them online) for families
to enjoy. Two family members can compete or play together on a team.
Juking and spinning are very over powered in Madden NFL 20. Just using
the right stick I could break tackles and get a monster gain. Too often
I tried to run out the clock and wound up scoring again. Certain players
are horrible (like the kicker on the Jets).
Did you enjoy the
Twitch stream Noah and I did of Madden NFL 20? That will eventually
make its way to Youtube. That was one of the best football games we have
ever had. The back and forth at the end is amazing. We did not have a
clue who was going to win that game. Ya’ll definitely need to follow us
on Twitch to see amazing games live. Everyone watching really enjoyed
it.
