Prime Video documentary about Madden NFL described as a “cautionary tale”
A new Prime Video documentary, “It’s In The Game: Madden NFL,” explores the history and success of the iconic football video game franchise Madden NFL. The documentary tells the story of how Electronic Arts founder Trip Hawkins and Hall of Fame coach John Madden played key roles in the game’s development. Despite its initial struggles, Madden NFL became a juggernaut after EA acquired the NFL license in 2004, eliminating competition like NFL 2K. However, the documentary suggests that the franchise has become stagnant, focusing more on presentation than gameplay, leading to criticism from fans and players. EA Sports College Football is seen as a potential alternative for fans seeking a fresh experience. The documentary is available to watch now.
