Nintendo GamerMay 13, 2011More tech demo than anything else. [May 2011, p.65]

Apr 14, 2011Madden's first outing on the 3DS is disappointing, not for its gameplay but for its lack of multiplayer and rushed 3D graphics. Sadly, it feels incomplete and there's little reason for a purchase, especially with Madden 12 just a few short months away.

May 10, 2011Decent gameplay let down by a lack of any multiplayer or other modes whatsoever.

Apr 9, 2011Madden NFL Football offers up a bare-bones experience that fails to satisfy on any level.

Mar 28, 2011EA's biggest problem with Madden NFL Football is that it insults fans of the series by only offering a shell of the NFL game they love, but while charging them the price of a full featured release. Truthfully, this game is worth about 50% to 75% less than what EA is currently charging. Just look at Madden 11 for the iPhone, a version with a similar feature set, plus multiplayer, priced at $7.99.

Mar 28, 2011No multiplayer; extremely shallow feature set; 3D is mostly pointless.

Mar 30, 2011What awaits you is not the heat of intense competition, but the icy, soulless embrace of computer opponents who bend and react with all the humanity of a game of electric football. How pathetic is this? The iPhone version, which is less than a quarter of the cost of the version found on this new-fangled device, has multiplayer capabilities. Chew on that one, and tell me it isn't a little salty.

Jul 4, 2023It is what you can expect in these types of games. It's decent but I'm sure there are much better options out there.

Feb 4, 2023As a football fan the game is great the game play is fine. The bottom screen helps a ton choosing what character you wanna pick at the right moment.
