    Having played both last years game and this years, I commend the team at Canuck for the improvement. This year’s game does play a lot more smoothly, the graphics have been refined slightly and a few added animations and physics tweaking has it playing much better simulation football. It still has a long ways to go, but they listen to their customer base and I will continue to support.

It still has a long ways to go, but they listen to their customer base and I will continue to support. The launch was a bit rough with wrong versions of the game being put through by Microsoft and Sony, but that was out of the hands of the developers. Overall, I’m enjoying this years game. Is it perfect, no. Is it AAA? No, but it darn well does a good job simulating football and it’s loaded with customization. Enjoy it for what it for what it is, a sim football game made by like 3-6 people who do it part-time. The amount of features they have in comparison to Madden is just plain sad. Goes to show how greedy and crappy EA is. Expand

    It’s true that Maximum Football does not have the resources or massive financial backing that Madden does. This game is by no means perfect, but it no doubt has more passion behind it than Madden does. Screw EA Sports.

    Maximum Football 2020 is made by a Canuck Play which small development team based out of Canada. So of course you’re not going to get an AAA product from a company with a smaller budget.

But from what I’ve seen since playing Maximum Football 18 is a constant improvement of their product, which is simulation football. Again if you go into playing MF comparing it to Madden then you’re already setting yourself up for a negative experience. Which isn’t fair for both yourself & this game. The game released a day early which players had access to an earlier build of the game that didn’t have the day one update. So of course those who played the game early experienced problems because they didn’t have the correct version. But of course those who had the early build won’t say that & only want to be so quick to bash this company & game. The developers are one of the most community based video game companies I’ve seen in a while. In laymen’s terms.....THEY LISTEN TO THE COMMUNITY! If you want a feature in this football simulation game they’ll definitely make note of it and work of putting it in game. Which makes the experience extremely better. The customization is one of the main draws to Maximum Football 2020 to where you have complete control to edit an entire college football universe! From designing the logo to recruiting players in dynasty mode. Me personally I’ve enjoyed the product that Canuck Play has created for the football community & look forward to seeing future releases of Maximum Football. With our support this company will continue to grow as well will the actual game. Just google Maximum Football 2018 to Maximum Football 2020 & you’ll see the improvements they’ve made each year. So if you’re looking for an college football experience from a company that actually listens to its customer base then Maximum Football 2020 is the game for you. See you on the field. Expand

    Maximum football 20 had a rough launch but was patched very quickly do to the devs working through the night. Max football 20 features a solid college dynasty mode not seen in a football game in years. The game play has shown great improvements from last years and i found it to be playable, having its moments of amazing physics based football but also some frustrating glitches.

Overall Canuck Play just proves yet again they are worth supporting if you dream of having a legit simulation football experience, just imagine what they could do with a bigger budget and more then one dev. The improvements they make on a yearly bases gives me little doubt that in a couple years we will have a very good true simulation football experience they just need our support and patience. Expand

    If you've played Front Page Sports Football throughout the 90s, you'll feel right at home with this game. I feel like I'm playing one of those FPSF games again, I'm not expecting a lot out of a game like this but it was cheap and has league sizes up to 130 teams at its disposal and has plenty of customization from logos, jerseys, plays and leagues.

Comparing it to 2018 and 2019, it's obvious this small company is moving forward with improving this game so hopefully next year or 2022 the game will look far more polished, so if you're into college football or even Canadian football (it has a 9 team option with special rules) then support this dev team.

    Mind you it's not even close to EA's Madden level of quality in graphics and animations, but it's a hell of a lot less frustrating than the crappy EA yearly releases as Madden 21 is proving to be one of the very worst releases to date and I've played Madden since 1989!

    This game doesn't look as pretty as the other guys', but the game play is fun and addicting. The game just feels right when used with a physics engine. Imagine that, a collision game with a collision engine. Not a bunch of animated balloons with predetermined outcomes. Recevers also don't drop the ball as much unless a player is right on top of them. Overthrows on bullet passes seem right.This game doesn't look as pretty as the other guys', but the game play is fun and addicting. The game just feels right when used with a physics engine.

Seeing the big games in your dynasty is also cool. Overall I'm having a bunch of fun playing (and watching) this game! Expand

    Coming from a guy who played nes football games growing up...this isn't terrible..the customization alone is worth it...no licensed teams or players, but they give you the city and the colors...if you're a major college football fan you can figure it out...with recruiting and the ability to play a college dynasty for the first time in 8 yrs, I am pleased.
