    From control to innovation, Madden 23 delivered one of its best full game experiences to date. However, a push for creativity has led to stark inconsistencies from year to year, leaving many unsatisfied with modes like Face of the Franchise.

While I like the new features for Franchise and Gameplay, but I feel bitter that X-Factors returned. Expand

    I skipped 21 and 22 because of poor word of mouth. 23 is still a weak game, but hardly any better. Franchise Mode is still bare-bones.

But I really enjoyed the Legacy Game, which features commentary from Coach Madden throughout the game. Expand

    I think this game is in need of an overhaul. They make to much money from this game to not invest back into it. Still the same boringI think this game is in need of an overhaul. They make to much money from this game to not invest back into it. Still the same boring celebrations, nothing that's actually from the players themselves. Still slow and leggy menus on console editions. I've always enjoy the franchise mode and will play it as long as it's possible with paying for an ultimate account. I can't wait for the new nfl game to come out from 2K. Give EA a reason to have to invest back into something instead of wasting our time with the same iteration and minor upgrades with the same flaws as previous editions. Expand

    This game is serious need of some updates or a refund which is shocking because it’s the exact same game from last year. EA couldn’t even getThis game is serious need of some updates or a refund which is shocking because it’s the exact same game from last year. EA couldn’t even get rebranding it and pretending it’s new, right. Examples. Trade logic doesn’t work. I traded 30 year old David Bakhtiari straight up for Justin Jefferson. There is no universe in Which that makes sense. The news stories in my online franchise are filled with reports of season ending injuries including a sprained elbow and a thigh bruise that landed my WR on IR because he would be out for 42 weeks.

    Under stats the sack leader for our league is apparently free agent WR John Ross III.

    In gameplay the physics are absolutely unreal. I have now twice seen animation where a RB is talked and appears to flip backwards before appearing from the pile and continuing on for a score.

    Stadiums have the same sponsors and livery as 2022 with no updates.

    No new uniforms for the teams that updated or included alternates for 2023.

    I’ve owned and played every edition of madden since it’s inception and I have loved the game over all these years but this is almost unplayable.

    Hot garbage! I'm not one to bash games unless they absolutely deserve it and this one absolutely deserves it. The game is unplayable. FromHot garbage! I'm not one to bash games unless they absolutely deserve it and this one absolutely deserves it. The game is unplayable. From broken animations to broken passing mechanics, this game is just plain bad. Numerous times I have thrown the ball to wide open recievers just to have the defense come out of no where and intercept the pass. I think the crew at EA needs to look up the word "polish" in a dictionary. This is honestly the last Madden game I will be purchasing. Expand

    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.

    Idk why anybody even gets their hopes up for this pile of trash anymore... Just another broken football game that's anything but simulation.
