I love your videos. I love the passion you put into playing the games, trying to play as realistic as possible and i love your ironic humor. Most of the times i listen to your videos on headphones while cooking and i absolutely enjoy it. Keep it up, underrated channel!
Thank you for the kind words! It really means a lot to me! I'm glad you're enjoying the videos I make and I'll continue to do them to the best of my ability 😁
Thirty seconds ago I was in the same position with my QB with the Niners. I have an improving third year QB who is a 90 overall. But then I signed Peyton Manning. Because I'm not Kyle Fng Shanahan.
"Defensive tackles/Ends last forever in this game" Me: cries in "Calais Campbell is still starting in the NFL at age 37" and something something Jim Marshall.
I didn't remember Porter being so injury prone, so I looked it up. Doesn't say anything ab injuries w/ Raiders, but after, in Jax he had hamstring surgery, then tore his Achilles in CFL. Madden called it lol
Your videos are wonderful - I’m continually impressed by your creativity in both storytelling and editing. Every release is a must watch! What do you use to record? The footage looks great, even with the older hardware.
I'm using an emulator for this series. Recording with OBS. I've recorded with original hardware, but Xbox, PS2, and GameCube footage doesn't look as good as emulation.
Madden 2004 EA generated Nnamdi Asomugha is not that good. Not like the real player. 89 speed and 53 awareness is not special. Meanwhile, Phillip Buchanon is the same age and a better all around player for Madden 04 with 68 awareness [+15 compared to Nnamdi]. Just for you, I have run a simulation with injuries off (no excuses) and put him as the starter with Woodson opposite him to see how he naturally develops. Because this is year 4, I simulated the first three years. He began my 4th season as an 80OVR with 83 career tackles, 5 career interceptions, 4 career forced fumbles and one recovery in those three seasons as a starter. Philip Buchanon was my third string CB and he is an 88OVR [+8 points better at the same age] and Woodson is 95OVR. By the end of year 4, and up to date with you - and with injuries *OFF!!!* - Nnamdi Asomugha actually declined to a79OVR. His peek at 80OVR was: Physical ratings: 89SPD 95ACC 94AGI 61STR 95JMP Skill ratings: 61AWR 64CTH 72TAK Phillip Buchanon is an 89 and Woodson remains a 95. No, you haven't really made much of a mistake.
Interestingly, I put Madden 05 in to see how EA rated Nnamdi after his rookie season. He kept his 89 speed, 88 acceleration, 86 agility, and 88 jump. His strength was increased to 64[!!!], higher than his three year progression in 04. His awareness is also 65 [+12 vs his 53 as a rookie] he also has 66 tackle.
I love the highlights of players in real life and the joke about Norton Anti-Virus ahaha. Keep up the fire content.

Brett Favre is a perfect reason to make a side save and do a branching user controlled franchise with him.
That would have been a fun side video. I should have thought of that 😅
Amazing video can't wait to see the new team

Turns out... This game is really realistic lol

Madden shouldn't have this much power lol
Without the power of hinsite, I understand you on the bret farve decision.
On the bright side I don't have to deal with anything favre does after his retirement 😏
Its going to be hard to progress Running Backs on madden 2004
I've learned the hard way that running backs and receivers refuse to get better 😤

the curse is worse than I thought, like the Giants curse with that boat picture
I forgot about that boat! Poor Eli Manning 😭 and he wasn't even on the boat!
Should’ve hired Trestman as your HC and moved on from Callahan
Larry Johnson trade was the worst trade in history lmao. Should have used your pick in the draft instead of wasting it on LJ
