Madden NFL 97

Description

Hut one, hut two, vaporware? Not!
Madden 96 was one of the most anticipated sports releases of last year but it never happened. Electronics Arts went thought a couple of reorganizations, refocusings and wasn’t satisfied with the way the game was turning out, so they scrapped it. Learning from their mistakes on Madden 96, EA Sports started over from the begining. The results? A really sweet football sim.

First let me say that I’m not a rabid fan of football but I respect the strategy of the plays. My father was the captain of his high school’s football team but he directed us kids into safer sports like swimming and soccer. Closest I got to playing the game was with one of those vibrating electronic games that the kid down the street had. We spent hours setting up our men and then flipping the power on, sending scrimmage line wiggling down the field. I think the last football video game I played was on the Atari. …

Madden NFL 2000 (also known as Madden 2000) is a football video game. This was the second of the Madden NFL games to not solely feature John Madden on the cover in North America.

The video at the introduction on the CD-ROM versions of the game is an unnamed track by rapper Ludacris. It was the first Madden game to be released for the Game Boy Color. It was also the first Madden game to be released on both PC and Mac.

The Green Bay Packers had the best team overall in the game with a score of 94.

Description

Madden NFL 2002 for PCs is based closely on the previous year’s version. It re-uses that version’s menus and its unique set of modes and options, while updating teams and rosters to the new season, adding a few new features and employing an improved graphics engine.

The teams have been updated to the 2001 NFL season and include the 31 regular teams, the 2002 expansion team, the Houston Texans, plus many All-Madden and classic NFL teams. All the same modes from the predecessor return: Exhibition (including a situation set-up option), Season, Franchise, Practice and Great Games. As before, online play is also included. New features include adding custom team logos (used in-game on uniforms, helmets and end zones) when creating new teams and the export of teams from Franchise mode so they can be used in Exhibition games.

The new graphics engine allows for higher details in player models, higher frame rates, more 3D character models (including bench players and the chain gang) and features real-time lighting and shadows. To make use of the new technology, the game now allows for afternoon and dusk in addition to day and night games for some extra dramatic lighting. …
