@fubar2k7 you guys dont realize how big of a sport football is. There are so many casual madden players, growing up everyone had madden, every kid plays madden. You guys might not play madden because of the pricey MUT, but madden has so many more things to do, franchise blows mlb out of the water, superstar mode is meh, but madden at its core is far more popular then mlb. Especisally when half the player base leaves MLB every august.

Popularity doesn't equal good. I bought a PS4 specifically to stop playing Madden and start playing this. It might have been the best a decade ago, but when you have to have a national campaign to fix the core part of a game, you're letting your long term customers down. EA hates you, and they let you know it every chance they get.
I started with Madden 92 on my Sega Genesis. Stopped playing during M20 and started MLBTS19. I tried M23, but hated it more than M20. It's pay to win. To stay competitive you usually have to have the latest cards which require spending way too much. I don't mind spending money, but I'm not spending $300+ to get the latest Tyreek Hill card.
I'll keep spending my $100 a year here and maybe a little more if it's worth it.

When it comes to Maddens, first of all it is, like The Show, the only league licensed game.
That's why it's so popular. For us that look past that, It's the gameplay. It has gotten so animation-based, that it's a mess. Sure many play it, but All-Madden difficulty is a circus and a poor way of simulating difficulty. The Show has that problem at times. When they nerf triples, by having balls kangaroo-bounce at every park to hold you to ground-rule doubles, they are challenged in simulating difficulty as well.
Just watch Ryan Moody's YT videos if you want the truth. -

Until the franchise corrupt bug happens.

Madden lost me when I kept getting tagged with losses after winning games in franchise mode. I was busy working when I last played to try playing their online mode so I wouldn’t know about spending $300 bucks for a single player. I’ll stick with my old school Tecmo Bowl for my NFL fix. Not like I have that big of a care to play that sport anyways.

loved that game lol swing it out to Kevin Mack in the flats and watch those linebackers and dbacks go flying like they got hit by Sauron swinging his mace in the opening scene of Fellowship

@iBonafideScrub_ bro said NBA2k a series that actually gets worse in gameplay yearly. I'd say the best sports game on console is Madden, then popularity wise probably fifa, then 2k/chl. 2k is awful.
I do not agree with you on this one, their gameplay gets better every year in my opinion.

@iBonafideScrub_ the last good 2k was 17, since 18 its been horrific ever sense.

@broken_toy1 according to this forum MLB the show is pay to win now? Madden is not the best but it is the most popular, like playing madden is one of the most classic things in gaming. I love MLB and I can admit Madden just hits a little different, mlb has been the same since 17, they need to add a weekend league or some new modes to online for dd, events/ranked/br thats about it. I'm a mlb defender as well, but man it gets so hard mid july to keep playing when you just are bored of the same stuff, and madden 24's gameplay is actually awesome, just content stinks, you dont have to pay to win any more, you can build a pretty good squad if you just grind a little bit.

I'll try Madden again in a couple of years. They've had multiple problems and when you used to call or email about a problem then the Indian customer support would say it's your fault instead of trying to fix the problem. Then hang up on you. Add the pay to win from earlier years and overall "screw you" mentality I've experienced, I think I'm being pretty reasonable in saying Madden and EA don't deserve my business.

@broken_toy1 NCAA football coming out this july will crush madden in sales, I think NCAA will be the same as madden, but it will still ncaa football. College football being back will push a lot of games under during that time.

I actually plan on getting it. College football has is always exciting. Always a good game on every Saturday.

@chucky97____PSN why is MLBTS pay to win ?!?!? I do not agree. You can get lots of very good cards from just playing. If you play it wise (on the market) and wait a little bit, you got lots of „cheap“ cards to fill out collections. That was were the majority of cards were.
Along the way, you get packs and build from there. Sure, Elly, Trout, Mauer, Mantle were chase packs but I got most of them, when they dropped (which happens a lot). But: You did not need them, since the alternatives were good enough too.
One IF: If you always want every new (buyable) card right at the drop, then you either have to be a great player and make stubs from flawless or invest money … But imo you do not need to do that -

And with the NIL agreement, the game will have actual NCAA players. In a year, some players make more than NFL stars...like more than 2x more.

I feel like the game is better, people tend to say older versions are better, not because they werr better but becuase for most of them it represents a time in their lives that they’d like to return to.
(Not saying this is you btw, this is why I said “most of the people”)

Is that why the NBA Live revival was garbage? That game was way better than 2K when they lost the license and my life is so much better now than it had ever been.
It makes more sense to say you like the new game because it’s the most recent game similar to people who just automatically like the latest movie in a series of movies no matter the quality due to recency.

NBA Live '18 & '19 were fun games! I even wrote trophy guides for both. I wish they'd come back. 2K isn't all that bad, but I'm still on '23, and the REC room where goons and scrubs hang out

@YOSHI24 i said "according to this forum mlb is pay to win" the amount of times i saw "SDS is turning into EA" all because they made packs actually valuable to earn this year was unreal. This is the easiest team building game of any ultimate team style game.

Ok, I was wrong … totally agree

@YOSHI24 mlb 21 ruined a lot of games for the future, mlb 21 being an absolute hand out ( every card could be unlocked by doing bare minimum) since then everyone just wants handouts.
