It's growing on me for sure. I feel like 25 can be smoother at times but the update to player models, presentation, and gameplay (AI) make it stand out. I need to keep playing it. I haven't even touched franchise mode lol
@@SimFootballFanatic franchise mode is almost the same but they added some things to the development of players which makes it better in my eyes. 25 had better auto draft classes with fun and cool players imo.
@@simheadacademy2569 Scouting in 25 was a headache to me. Everything was costly to scout. So much so that I ended up letting the CPU draft lol I don't think I liked scouting until about 18 whenever they added gems to it so you could scout a bunch of positions and target players you needed.
@@SimFootballFanatic yeah true I’m just talking about the game creativity with the draft classes. I mean it wasn’t as good as custom draft classes or import draft classes but yeah. Scouting hasn’t been good ever honestly. It could have way better. What they have in Madden today is probably the best it has been since maybe PS2 era and that wasn’t great.
@@Redskins_PA the biggest difference in gameplay that I've noticed is when I went from my original Xbox One to series x. It seems like the gameplay got sped up because of the extra processing power. I know the frames are 60 but the gameplay speed even on Madden 25 got faster

It really depends on how you play the game. From a user standpoint, I think 25 gives you the most freedom. 18 has some good animations and is great for coach mode/visual sim. 15 plays somewhere between 25 and 18. And 19 has really good animations but lacks user control. However, the franchise is the best out of all 4. It's why I play them all. I didn't even include M21 (next gen), which probably has the best gameplay out of all of them. But you need a series/PS5 console to play that version. The old geb version of 21 is bad lol
I'd recommend M16, personally. The animations might not be as clean as some of the other games from that era, but the "feel" of player movement is unmatched, IMO. Players that year felt weighted and rooted to the ground in a way that they just haven't since. The game also had a nice balance between offense and defense, with neither side of the ball feeling too overpowered. And underlying systems like CPU QB AI, fatigue, penalties, etc. simply worked as intended, which, unfortunately, isn't the case every single year.
I haven't gotten to play 15 too too much, but I felt All Madden AI on M25 was brain dead most of the time. I've only played one game but I think the AI better on 15. Defenders read the play and shoot the gap, the QB moves around in the pocket, and runners find the holes. Needs more testing but it looks good so far!
@@SimFootballFanatic basically , just leaving the name as redskins pa for discovery rate , sticking to Madden 25 and 20 , waiting for max football to test out for Seminoles gameplay , it’s tough going backwards with older football games lol
Madden 18 legit I’m playing it rn, but I play 25 more than anyone of the maddens included the new madden 25 all the new games is trash and animation based it’s not about physics
I have a friend who sends me clips of the new Madden and I can't help but think it looks like trash lol I think M21 next gen is a better game for sure.

15 is the best out of these I’d say.

Depending the year but it seems if you install disc , with internet off , blocking all updates, seems to run better ?

So you'd recommend Madden 18 out of the PS4 Madden's to play overall?

Nice video! I have a question. Which game, either Madden 25 & 15, do you think has the better cpu ai. For example, playing against the offense.
I haven't gotten to play 15 too too much, but I felt All Madden AI on M25 was brain dead most of the time. I've only played one game but I think the AI better on 15.
