You went 0-2 against farmers and the French.
Tried Madden it's the same Madden it always is. Innovation is a thing EA forgot about a decade ago.

Should we mention the Korean war? I mean this could go on all day and will be just as boring as the NFL.

There actually were teams in Europe and even an official NFL European league but it failed. You should read about it. NFL Europe - Wikipedia

Everyone called this when EA got full control of the NFL license. This was totally expected. Hopefully, with 2K supposedly working on an NFL title, we can get some competition for Madden, and start to see it improve again. That said, I won't hold my breath. I am interested in what 2K can produce in an actual competitive market. I find the NBA2K franchise to be good, though they lost me last year with the change to the shot meter. I hate the VC and gambling mechanics they've implemented, but I get that it's just feeding on the propensity for whales to pay to win. I can live with that, as I don't care about playing online. I think the mechanics of the game are good, and improve each season (save for the shot meter). If they can bring that same quality to the NFL games, then I'll be happy.

You dont have "Football", you have "Futbol", aka Soccer. MLB isnt "rounders", its fucking hardball. Its a well known fact the hardest thing to do in any sport is hit a round ball with a round bat, especially when its thrown 95 plus MPH or has the bite and spin of a nasty slider. If you dont know, you better ask somebody.Football is so much bigger than the NFL it's just a simple fact. And don't make me laugh on rounders either

Rugby..... HAHAHAHAH! Grown men hugging each other en masse then trying to push each other? Yeah nah man, i cant even not laugh at that. Too funny. Nevermind the fact that often pro rugby players tryout for an NFL team and are cut immediately.American Football.... It's basically Rugby for girls. Get your helmet & padding on boys.
Also, the unpopular sport you refer to as Soccer, has a World Cup in which basically every nation around the world has a chance to compete in, whereas American Football was basically invented to give you guys something to be the best at, because nobody else really plays or cares about it.

or how about we mention the Revolutionary war? You know, the one where the English empire controlled America got their ass kicked and sent back over the pond? No taxation without representation. USA.Should we mention the Korean war? I mean this could go on all day and will be just as boring as the NFL.

I played so much 2k on Dreamcast. Also played a lot of Madden back on PS1. Good times, honestly.
I'm scared to try the modern Madden games.

Madden usually receives decent 80 and 90 reviews just for existing and mainstream critics don't know shit about football. It's already a horrible sim of football, but it says a lot when even ign is giving it a trash score.

I would hope a 6 '2 man that weight under 200lbs would look ripped lol

Like 3 quarters of the NFL receivers?
My God. Maybe he's sentient!
Imagine an entire league of wide receivers. That's FIFA.
Here's the juice. A college team would smash Football's best indeed
And a 2nd tier team would smash a team of NFL athletes in euro Football
Respect both.

there is a "non-simulation" NFL-licensed football game coming out in 2022. support it, its the only way NFL will not further extend the exclusive EA/Madden license. NFL only understands dollars

No many are about 150 lbs and built like 12 year old boys.
A actual NFL team would physically hurt a futbol(under 200 lbs lol) team in America Football..
I'm talking major injuries to those boy body soccer boys.
To be fair, rugby and American football require similar but not quite the same set of skills. I'm sure NFL players trying out for pro rugby would also have mixed results.

I haven't played a Madden game since '05. I honestly don't think I've missed out on anything. I've watched some videos lamenting the stagnation of the franchise since then, so seems like I left right around peak Madden.
The franchise deserves all the hate it gets because unlike other annual rehashes, Madden actually ended up losing features over time. It has to be the most bizarre situation any franchise has seen. Instead of getting more with new games, you started getting less. And then they'd throw back in a feature 10 years later, and try to pretend that it was something new. EA fucking sucks. FIFA has stagnated as well, but it was never done dirty like Madden was. Absolutely pathetic. I'll never buy another Madden again.

Sure
And half of them would collapse of fatigue halfway through the 1st half due to fatigue.
Different games. Different struggles. Respect the talent in both.
How hard is that to do? As a former player I don't shit on anybody who grinds for the shine.

It evolved from un-American football and they never changed the name, basically.
Also, Americans do play "soccer" - at least until we're old enough to play other stuff.

Pads are a necessity in american football, because the collisions are bigger. There's an argument to be made that removing the pads would soften the collisions, because people would be less likely to run headlong into certain injury, but I don't think that's an experiment anyone wants to take on at this point. American football used to be played with leather helmets, and less padding than today, but they beefed it up because of safety.
I think trying to mock american football as too soft is a losing argument. The NFL and college is basically a bunch of HGH monsters simulating car accidents without cars for 60 minutes. Anyone saying otherwise would end up shitting their pants when they put on a helmet and pads, and stepped on the same field as these super-athletic gargantuans. Watch an NFL combine sometime to see just what kind of speed and power takes the field each weekend, just at the collegiate level. It's fucking terrifying.

Throw up emoji's
Futbol doesn't impress me nor does it's "talents"
I will give you one bone,just one...
It's by far the most popular sport.
I learnt this the hard way when arguing with my Cameroon friend and boy did I eat some humble pie.

I played American football as we will call it in this thread. I've seen 70,000 fans, it's some shit for sure.
However trust me man they pack their stadiums harder and shut down entire cities. They give a huge fuck.
Every premiere team is the Oakland raiders if you're wearing an opposing kit.
Except Tottingham. All their fans are 22 year old guys who tuck their shirts in lol.
**based on my limited experience over there.

Yeah Futbol is by far the most watched/popular.
Sadly the NFL is way behind.
Hopefully this changes with them having overseas games.

They need Mexico City, Toronto, and London.
They will get them all.

Football is called that because you play the game with your foot, not quite the case for NFL. And rounders is hardly the only sport where you have a ball thrown at you fast, try playing Cricket.

And it will still sell 5-8 million copies. People dont care about reviews for casinos, it's why they keep losing more money then they needed too.

Madden could benefit from 2K style gameplay and graphics.
