Madden NFL 06 

 

When I saw all those different Madden NFL video games from before the start of Family Friendly Gaming I was excited to purchase them on the Gamecube. Of the three main consoles in that generation (PS2, Xbox, and Gamecube) I liked the Gamecube the best. Memory was a problem, and it is shown in the videos we have done. Why does Madden NFL 06 need more than an entire memory card? Larger memory cards have to be purchased to save your games.

The core of Madden NFL 06 is passing, and the quarterback's vision. There is a light coming from the quarterback to show what he can see. This of course tells the defense where he plans on throwing as well. The light can be moved around the screen, and has to for the quarterback to find an open receiver. Which takes more time and allows the rush to get to the quarterback faster.

Running in Madden NFL 06 is frustrating. I adjusted the difficulty setting to make Madden NFL 06 easier to play. It still was not a breeze. Madden NFL 06 is a difficult Madden NFL video game to play. This passing mechanic did not make it into future Madden NFL games. That should tell you something. The kicking system in Madden NFL 06 is also broken.

The character creation in Madden NFL 06 is odd at best. Four family members can enjoy Madden NFL 06. The graphics look okay for the era. Not much improvement from past games. The sounds in Madden NFL 06 can be offensive depending upon the song playing. The announcers are okay. The offensive songs can be turned off which is quite handy for families.

The European teams can be found in Madden NFL 06. That is pretty neat. I had fun playing Madden NFL 06 on the Gamecube. With all of its problems, and glitches this home console video game still has the feeling of football. The game could have left out the self promotion in my personal opinion. I wish running was supported more in Madden NFL 06 too. I appreciate challenges working in Madden NFL 06.
