I think only fair that since today, August 14, the new Madden 08 was released, that I take a deeper look at the series. This touchdown of a series started way back when in 1985 with John Madden Football, a football game for the NES that was followed by sequels in 1988 and 1990. They then broke through and hit the big leagues with their classic series, Madden NFL, which started in 1994. They then kept on going with another installment in 95, 96, and on until this present day. The series has always been known to bring great football action, which we’ve never really been picky about. Throughout the years, along with the new installments, we’ve received new modes, new players, new teams, new extras, and so much more. Also, even if you have a consolke that’s been obsolete for 3 years, you’ll still be getting a Madden game. Madden is definitely the king of Multi-platforming. When it comes to the quality of the games, I think that Madden should stick to what it does best and keep on spitting out great games year after year, with maybe a few extras added on every now and then. I honestly don’t think Madden will lose it’s audience anytime soon.
