Ps2 was the best gaming era in my opinion. Best madden games (2002-2005), MVP baseball, Tony hawk 3,4,Underground. The GTA trilogy. Metal gear solid 2 and 3, SOCOM, the countless indi games. Hundreds of gems that I’ll forget to mention
Tekken Tag 1, Tekken 4, Tekken 5, Def Jam Fight For NY, Max Payne 1 & 2, God Of War, NFL Street 2, NBA Street 1 & 2, Smackdown Here Comes The Pain, Smackdown Shut Your Mouth, Smackdown vs Raw, Madden games, NBA Live games, & more. Yes the PS2, GameCube, OG XBOX, Dreamcast era was definitely the best in gaming. Hands down. Sure we have better graphics and power, but in terms of fun, charm, replay value, & most of all ACTUAL COMPLETED GAMES....NO DLC....yes PS2 era is the best in gaming.
Wow the music between plays, sideline reporting after the first drive, John madden himself making note of the stretching…. This is incredible. In 2002 windows xp was popular
Playing with the Rams on Madden 03 was like having unlimited ammo. Marshall Faulk covered the run game, Issac Bruce was the possession receiver, Torry Holt was the deep threat/big play receiver, and Kurt Warner had good accuracy. Fun times.
I used to create a player and do my own career mode changing teams to whoever signed him. Then when he retired I would hire him as a head coach and play the game CPU vs CPU and only call the plays. Good times. I was like 14 lol
John Madden had died in the age of 85 rest in peace John Madden and I will be playing his three of his games and they are Madden NFL 2003, Madden NFL 2005, and finally Madden NFL 09 . ☹️😥😢😭🕊️🌹
I had 02 on PS1 but 03 on PS2 was too perfect. Soundtrack, Minigames, Pat & John Madden in the booth at all times! RIP The Franchise, The GOAT, John Madden
Sadly this is ahead of today's Madden in comparison. Sideline reporting. More accurate commentary compared to today's game. Less repetitive. What happen to EA??
One of the ads I got watching this gameplay was an ad for the new Apple Vision Pro. I was so bored, watching the commercial that I couldn’t wait till a video game from 2003 came back on😂. Simpler times.

madden 2003 was such a good game. The new maddens are saturated with EA Trax. This game had great audio and in stadium music. I like the more goofy audio that they had back in 2001-2003 To me that is what makes a Madden Game. it was Like a fingerprint of the game.
Ya what the F happened. I hold a madden tourney every year and alll my friends and I despise the soundtrack for the last handful of years. In the PS2 era I was hyped to just learn the soundtrack to the game
E A SPORTS ITS IN THE GAME!!!!man ..... ea sports its in the game .....MADDEN NFL 2003... ao dramatic intros haha...do i remember this era hahaha i miss it .......u gotta be born in atleast 94 and before
@Michael Tucker ya but unfortunately u were a little too young not sayin u dont remember but ya its just like me n pay phones even though im born early 90s i was too young to experience it but i rememebr ya so i feel wut ur sayin
This game is what I consider to be the last Hard Madden ever made, the playbooks year over year are so different post this game, the ratings system is so strict too, look how bad the teams are, look how slow so many skill position players and defensive backs are, so many players were rated below 60 overall, if you lost any starter, even a player over 60 overall, you FELT IT! WR's struggled to catch, lots of running backs would either fumble or not have get away speed, TE's were more useful for blocking than catching. A completely different time. Yet, this was the best game at 1 thing, preseason, no game before or after did it justice. This is the only madden that i can remember, where there were preseason rating adjustments when it was done, without position battles (2005 onwards on PS2), or other annoying features like auto subs in the 2nd half, if you wanted to play your backups and lower overall players all game, you could do it! Save your starters and vets because you could risk them getting worse to start the season or be more injury prone! But if you play your backups/rookies, they get WILDLY good FAST! Maddens today could give a crap about preseason, and like I said, Maddens afterwards would include annoying features during preseason that forced you to pay attention to who you wanted to start come regular season. 2003? Just play the rookies and don't worry about it, your starters will still be starters by regular season. Makes me wish modders could mod this game with today's rosters with accurate ratings just like this game (instead of overrating every WR to have 99 speed...).
I remember during summer my bro would always have the volume full blast while I'm still sleeping....and every single time he would get mad and throw the console
I just got the game a week ago. Love it. Have madden 2003-2011 and the ncca football 2003-2011. Hard to best those old ps2 sports games when it comes to depth and realism.
Man I miss Al Michaels and John Madden as the commentators. Brandon Gaudin & Charles Davis just don't do it for me. Can we get Romo and Nance or Collinsworth and anybody besides Joe Buck. Kevin Harlan would be money as well!

2 things: 1st, How do you have Garrison Hearst & don't run the ball? 🤔 2nd, I've watched 5 games under this account and they've ALL ended in loses. Does anyone know how to actually play Madden? 🤔
This is why I love youtube
But now,it's shit but I use it.
agree man good times on 03
Personal time machine
@@Violator225exactly
My very first Madden game ever! Holds a special place in my heart.
same man, same
This is my favorite Madden game of all time. So many hours playing this game

I think Madden 2002-08 were solid. You also can’t forget the NFL 2K series (2K2-2K5 on PS2).
Madden 06 was the best imo
Wow the music between plays, sideline reporting after the first drive, John madden himself making note of the stretching…. This is incredible. In 2002 windows xp was popular
vista wasn't even out yet, it was xp lol
Remember when tackling looked like tackling and not a glitchy mess? I miss those times.
EA is so lazy now.
The physics in todays games make no sense. Catch a player from behind going down the sideline and he falls backwards.
Now this is what I call a Madden game!
this is back when EA actually put effort.
Classic Madden games are the best
@@premiumdude8353cos they had competition back then
I don't care how old this game is I will still play it
me too. Especially since the newer madden games suck.
Hell yeah 👍
Madden 2003 > Madden 23
Playing it rn on my Xbox series x
I really like 24 but I will always cherish 2003
Playing with the Rams on Madden 03 was like having unlimited ammo. Marshall Faulk covered the run game, Issac Bruce was the possession receiver, Torry Holt was the deep threat/big play receiver, and Kurt Warner had good accuracy. Fun times.
That line was amazing as well
R.I.P. J Madden! My personal favorite is this one!
I used to create a player and do my own career mode changing teams to whoever signed him. Then when he retired I would hire him as a head coach and play the game CPU vs CPU and only call the plays. Good times. I was like 14 lol
Thats such a deep experience for such an old game lmao gotta love it
"When it's time to party we will party hard" 🎶🎶🎶🎶
Best song to start a game ever!! I'll fight anyone who disagrees!

My favorite menu in the history of sports video games. Absolutely loved how they had the real game footage
Good men, the best gameplay ever was madden 2001-2003 Tower view. STILL THE BEST..
*tower view, is that a camera view ?*
My ever first madden game I really played . Madden 2003-20012 really was gaming . 09-12 on ps3 was the games but 03-07 on ps2 were the best
*03-07, timeless.*
I had 02 on PS1 but 03 on PS2 was too perfect. Soundtrack, Minigames, Pat & John Madden in the booth at all times! RIP The Franchise, The GOAT, John Madden
I loved this madden, especially because it introduced in game replays that were better than any before it
This was it right here. Junior year of HS with me and the homies playing this religiously.
Sadly this is ahead of today's Madden in comparison. Sideline reporting. More accurate commentary compared to today's game. Less repetitive. What happen to EA??
Madden hasn’t been good in a decade
Less animations, more user control.
@@clevercode30 *25
Madden has been garbage for the past 10 years. The old games were made so much better
The last good madden was madden 2005. Madden has not been good for the past 16 years and counting.
When it was common to see a PlayStation or Xbox in the barbershop madden or nba live
One of the best soundtracks in gaming history. Someone needs to make a video just about that
This was the yr of significant graphical upgrades. You can see a huge difference from 02-03
Who else came here to be reminded of how good Madden used to be before EA started getting lazy?
R.I.P John Madden, this brings me back
One of the ads I got watching this gameplay was an ad for the new Apple Vision Pro. I was so bored, watching the commercial that I couldn’t wait till a video game from 2003 came back on😂. Simpler times.
I miss the games having main menus like these too, small thing but still makes a big presentation difference at least to me
when madden was good

You can play it all on Xbox series x if you have dev mod
@@skolluongo252 Nice.
Still the best Madden game!
This is the best of the PS2 Madden games just the right amount of difficulty on pro level
*04 id say. I like this game because you break more tackles on the run in this one than any other madden on ps2.*
@@icanttrustasoul. I don't know why but I never cared for 04 I don't see why people like it
My favorite madden!!! garcia to owens couldn't nobody stop me,,
I played this game so much even when 2004 came out I was still playing this game for a while until I gave in lol
Man I haven't seen Brees in a San Diego uniform in forever.
What sucked about the older Madden games was so little plays to choose from
But you could create your own playbook back in these maddens so it leveled it out. I wish you could do that now
Terrell Owens was unstoppable.
Definitely sucks the absolutely shit nfl blackballed him
Good ole days of the childhood...was 13 when this came out

In Madden 22 I had a guy hit stick tackle me with Mahomes after I returned his INT for about 30 yards. Mahomes celebrated the hit stick tackle.
first madden i played and had the best soundtrack of all time
on ship in the marines, we played this year's game non stop.
That’s pretty cool to know. Were you guys able to play anytime you wanted or was it actually limited?
Back when we still had rock music in sports game...
Not that mumble rap / trap generic shit of today.
Ya what the F happened. I hold a madden tourney every year and alll my friends and I despise the soundtrack for the last handful of years. In the PS2 era I was hyped to just learn the soundtrack to the game
It actually was a good graphic game for its time hell I’d still play this over any madden today
I played this madden and vice city for HOURS
Rip Madden
Greatest running back of all time

This game a lot of hours! Good times
Sad that the Chargers organization couldn’t do anything with this team. Brees, LT and Gates. Wow.
The only thing madden has updated in 21 years is the graphics 🤣🤣

Back when Madden was simple.
The older games are better than the new ones ..

Just got a ps2 and have been playing the shit out of this game
I just got the game a week ago. Love it. Have madden 2003-2011 and the ncca football 2003-2011. Hard to best those old ps2 sports games when it comes to depth and realism.
Also 2003 was last madden u could create a coach and keep track of his career stats.
The first madden game ive ever had
ps2 startup >
I’d rather play Madden 03 than 23
The music may be muted but I'm singing the lyrics of Party hard😅
Wish they’d release a similar madden with all the customization options omg 😢
MADDEN NFL 2003
When I started playing ONLINE with the DIAL UP !!! Lmao
This game is still better than Madden 24, and more than likely will be better than Madden 25.
Psalms 9:18
For the needy shall not alway be forgotten: the expectation of the poor shall not perish for ever.
When Madden was good.
Historical teams were great
Create a team was so cool
Makein me wanna get a ps2 again just to play some good madden it’s shame
Press start button
first video game i ever owned (that i actually picked out myself)
Man I miss Al Michaels and John Madden as the commentators. Brandon Gaudin & Charles Davis just don't do it for me. Can we get Romo and Nance or Collinsworth and anybody besides Joe Buck. Kevin Harlan would be money as well!
Better than madden 23 lol
Still better then new shit
This use to be so high tech to me.
I have to go get me a ps2 ASAP
It was so hard to catch an interception because of the bad animation motions on defense
Bro you are a dangerous player 😂😂😂 bro faked every 4th down and your passing is unorthodox 🤣🤣🤣
Please check for Team Ecko in this game
@Michael Tucker do your homework on that
@Michael Tucker ok but on both of those football games u can't get to edit players for team Ecko I don't know why ?
