    Madden NFL 22 is like a roller coaster”. That’s what I wrote last year in my review. 365 days after, I must repeat myself, going from NFL 22 to 23. Madden NFL 23 is a game that can be compared to a roller coaster. You go up with FieldSENSE, you go down with a problematic AI. You go up with new features in almost all game modes, you go down after experiencing bugs and glitches. There are steps forward made since the last videogame, and the direction taken by the developers is the right one, but there is still work to do to reach levels of excellence.

    I spent much of the past 48 hours trying to figure out why I’m not drawn to play game after game in any of the modes available. I thought: the game is visually appealing and it plays a decent enough game of virtual football, what’s the core issue? I believe the problem is that the gameplay, at its core, just isn’t addictive. Can I have fun with Madden? Yes, and I probably will have some solid moments with the game this year, but not enough to make it elite.

    Madden NFL 23 is as usual greedy in number of game modes, faithful to the level of modeling and the show offered, but is still slowed down on certain points. The American football simulation is still not translated, decided this year to offer a career mode without a scenario, and is unfortunately not spared from certain visual bugs. EA Tiburon will still be able to rely on the small changes made to its gameplay with Fieldsense technology for the next games, full of potential.

    On PC, Madden 23 makes a couple of decent changes to the established formula, but not enough to truly move the chains for the series.

I guess it's still better than nothing, but there isn't much reason to upgrade (besides roster update) if you have a previous game. Expand

MUT is a mess with missing rewards and nerfing modes for solo/single players. Being forced to play online against humans is not what many signed up for. I'm still missing rewards for passes and daily challenges. EA makes it tougher for F2P each year and its frustrating. Expand

Using a 12 gen Intel cpu and a AMD rx6600 and it stutters and is unplayable even in the menus. I can't just play franchise and sim all the games because of the menu stutter. It is literally unplayable either way. This game getting a 68 from the critics is insane. How do you get a score that high by re-releasing a broken piece of bloatware every year? Expand

    well another year another **** game. too buggy and then seasons getting ejected like passing a basketball and throwing it out of bounds onwell another year another **** game. too buggy and then seasons getting ejected like passing a basketball and throwing it out of bounds on purpose because ea goes out of bounds every year.
    the new interface is the only green card I can give the red is just a lot.
    the bugs is so bad
    microtransactions keep ruining the game
    i played the trial and got bored in other words the game is boring.
    the game connecting superstar and franchise mode was the biggest mistake
    ea fails to listen to its consumers every year because franchise mode keeps freezing
    pro bowl is unplayable unless you finagle your way through it unlike past maddens where the probowl is part of the game and your career you get involved in the game. it's clear ea should stick to NHL than madden and I hope the NFL drop ea because they've failed.
    no minicamp or training camp at all you're dropped into the NFL without any form of preparation.

    Same game as the past 10 years. Better nfl games on the ps2. Try NFL2k8 or an older madden before madden 2013. The game is way better then.

    Ha un gameplay orrendo comandi brutti ed esce ogni anno con la stessa grafica.
