Madden NFL 25 Slammed as "Waste of Money" by Fed Up Fans

As a die-hard football fan and long-time Madden enthusiast, I must admit that my relationship with this year’s Madden NFL 25 has been a rollercoaster ride, much like my high school romances. The initial excitement was palpable, the promise of new features, improved graphics, and an enhanced gaming experience had me eagerly awaiting its release. But, like many first loves, the reality fell short of expectations.

Over the past few weeks, “Madden NFL 25” has been released across platforms like PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series S, and Xbox Series X. However, despite this, the game isn’t in its optimal condition, with numerous bugs and glitches that can pop up during play. These issues aren’t always consistent, but they do occur randomly, which can be quite annoying for players. Fortunately, these problems don’t usually cause major disruptions, but they do create a frustrating gaming experience. As a result, the majority of top posts on the “Madden” Reddit forum revolve around complaints about the game’s current state.

One of the popular posts currently is one criticizing the game as “faulty” and a “misuse of funds.” Similar complaints often include supporting evidence. On the other hand, another video captures Malik Nabers getting trapped in a T-pose pose after scoring a touchdown. Furthermore, a third video demonstrates that the game’s animations frequently fall short of delivering the simulation-like experience claimed, which is quite common.

Over the past few days, these three posts on the Madden Reddit forum offer a snapshot of the predominant sentiment since the game’s release. Players appear frustrated, and their discontent seems widespread across platforms. However, despite this, the series remains popular, with sales continuing to be strong. This year, the fans of Madden seem unusually downcast.

This game is so broken, what a waste of money

“This is a silly analogy, but playing Madden NFL 25 reminded me a lot of anyone I dated in high school,” reads the opening of our review of the game, which awards it s a three out of five. “Things started exciting. The first kiss. Staying up late talking about nothing. Taking them to Prom. You know how it goes. But the more you spend time with them, you start to realize that things aren’t as great under the surface, and the two of you are looking for completely different things in life.”
