The only thing I didn't like about 03 and 04 was the defensive movement. I likeed to play with linebackers and it was impossible to turn back with a defender. Changed that in 05
I have to admit even though I'm in the minority, I like the PS2 graphics better for Madden games over Xbox graphics. I feel like they the colors right and closer to real life than Xbox. Like for example the Saints helmet looks too dark and moldy looking on Xbox and the PS2 version they got Saints helmet color right and it's more realistic. But however good video!
yeah um no, madden 04 isn't even better than 05, and 05 isn't that great, the greatest madden was 07-08 for ps2 and ps3, and 09 added the toe tap feature which was great, madden 04 was good certainly not the greatest
@@Maal7432 Obviously its a video game. But thanks for pointing that out for me. I been playing madden since the Sega Genesis and grew up playing vs CPU. I'ts all about setting up your sliders to make it a realistic experience. Obviously you play on All-Madden but if you're scoring 56 in 8 min quarters and hitting big play after big play its way too easy. Either turn up the CPU awareness or coverage. Turn down the sliders on your o.line pass protection. Or use quarterbacks with lower ratings to make the game more challenging but scoring like arena football is not fun to watch because the gameplay is too unrealistic. I had a season where I had 30 sacks with Nick Bosa, 22 with Buckner, 15 with Armstead so I had to fix sliders to make the stats more realistic. Just saying but do you.
Well these Colts did find themselves in shootouts back then. They always had a high powered offense but a terrible defense. They relied heavily on Peyton Manning who could handle the offense, they tried to do the same to Andrew Luck but the Colts were never able to protect him and Andrew got injured often and then he decided retire from the NFL.
I’m literally watching you throw the most shittiest passes ever and your defenders aren’t picking the ball off.. let this happen in today’s madden and you oldheads are sending EA a paragraph complaining about gameplay...
I like early 2000s madden. Today's feel like something is missing!!!
That's there is! A whole lot is missing.
I think 🤔 Quality it's missing. Hearth. Realism.... But I'll say: FUN!
Fun...fun is missing
Yes, yes it is. It just feels the best. I can’t put the game down. It’s pure football.
You should start a Franchise in this game ;)
Dude, this game feel better and still way more fun than all the new maddens combined! I got this on my laptop
Yeah tha feeling they had was crazy. Not 2 mention psp
2004 is the best Madden ever I don't care what nobody say it would have been nice if they would have added the hit stick
The Defense in this game was brutal
What do you mean by that?
Haven't played Madden since 05! Ima stay playing these until another product besides EA makes a masterpiece like this.

True that and hey I have some content on my channel from madden 04...historic teams all edited w/ equipment and facial recognition for some players!
@@Benzino021K Nice! Did you do the rosters or download them from somewhere?
@@osurocks24 I did them all from scratch...a lot of research lbs!
@@Benzino021K Would you be willing to sell those?
@@franchisefanatics6536 yeah for sure, some time in the near future, I'm thinking about building a website to sell them.
An Aaron Brooks led Saints team would never be able to drop 8 touchdowns on the Colts back then.
Intro to games Presentation was better back then, players warming up and stuff, looked great
The Manning Hometown Bowl. Peyton Manning going against his family's favorite team and his father Archie's old team he was known for being on.
I would have to agree!
I still play this game on the regular. I have for over 15 year. Best Madden ever made!
Crazy to think this was a Super Bowl Matchup 6 years later after 2004. Go Colts Go
The soundtrack was the best
Joe horn on the saints is Jaycee horns dad. And Aaron brooks had the strongest arm in the league at that time
I want more madden 04 from u lol
05-08 best years
Proverbs 15:26
The thoughts of the wicked are an abomination to the LORD: but the words of the pure are pleasant words.
Personally I think this is the second best Madden only behind Madden NFL 2005
Bro a question: how did you manage to play online? ✌
What is the difficulty and sliders used here?
Did this match up have anything to do with the super bowl?
NFL 2K5 or this??
Yes
STILL PLAYING IT WITH THE HOMIES LOL.

Madden stopped being good when it got out the PS2 era
56-45 with 8 minute quarters lol. Not a great madden. Unrealistic gameplay and stats. Looked like arena football
It’s still a video game. Playing a good human player, is a different beast than the CPU.

Don't you have some microtransactions or something to tend to? Madden 04 is better than any Madden on PS3, PS4, or PS5. PS2 4 Life
