Other new presentational features include split-screen replays, smoother transitions between plays, new 'specialty' animations for actions such as stumbles and open-field blocks, and player models of a variety and detail unprecedented in the series.Īmong the most prominent new features in this '2004' edition of Madden NFL is the 'Playmaker Control' system, designed to offer gamers greater control of the men on the field, both before and during a play. There's even acknowledgment of Madden's 'horse trailer' player of the game, for the first time in this edition. Monday Night Football's Al Michaels rejoins John Madden to call the action and supply commentary, while a virtual Melissa Stark sends updates from the sidelines. As usual, the teams, rosters, logos, and stadiums have been updated based on information from the most recent (2002-2003) NFL season.

Likely the most successful and recognizable sports video game franchise of its time, Madden NFL returns to consoles and computer screens for its 14th season of professional football action.
