    I would love for DFMF 2020 to be a good game. I would love for it to be a football game “that isn’t Madden,” and that gives consumers a real alternative. Unfortunately, this isn’t Madden. It’s much, much worse. While it delivers robust options in franchise and customization, the game is just too hard on the eyes, and not fun enough to encourage most people to delve into its underneath layers. Even at a $30 price point, this game probably isn’t worth your time. You’d be better off playing Madden 08 if you’re willing to sacrifice graphics, but still want good gameplay.

The team had a bumpy launch day due to problems on Sony and Microsofts end in their online stores, but overall this game is a fantastic simulation football game! Despite the launch day bumps, the developers were totally transparent about all issues happening and worked to resolve then asap, giving constant updates. The amount of care and detail that Canuck Play puts into their games is great and I am super excited to support them for years to come.… Expand

There is more football logic in this game than there has been since 2014. Great job Canuck play. The dynasty is super deep. The football part is great. My favorite game of the year without a question. Thank you for always listening to your community and immediately hopping on errors and bugs even when Microsoft and Sony totally botched your launch. Job well done!!!!!!!… Expand

The devs atI’ve got to be honest, I’ve been following this game for about a year. This is my first time buying and I’m absolutely loving it! The devs at Canuck Play have done a great job of improving the game from last year’s and although there are a lot of problems, (namely many bugs and glitches, strange movement, almost no interceptions) they are committed to fixing them. On r/maximumfootball, the subreddit, they respond to almost every review, bug report, and they fix it. After all the bs with madden this is such a breath of fresh air. I’m so excited for the future of this game because it will be great. As they are a small team, it will take some time, so if you want a good football game right now, then stay away for a couple of years. If you have some extra cash and want to support a small development team, then buy it. If you don’t mind graphics, strange gameplay, and bugs then buy it! They frequently fix bugs and are so committed to the game that in no time it will be a contender with Madden.… Expand

They are determined to create a football game that is affordable and capable to stand along side of other offerings on the Xbox One and I'm sure other gaming platforms of choice. This is the follow up to last years 2019 version which didn't quite meet my maybe too tall of standards from the lofty expectations of the games feature set and description. I remember a day when there were so many options for video game console football video games, today we seems that we are struggling to find an alternatives. No matter the football experience from a purely structural standpoint, Canuck Play brings the goods in franchise and season modes. For as good as the franchise mode options are, the customization is almost what it needs to be in comparison.. You can create or edit everyone in the game. You can also customize the league, the teams, and even design logos which is quite a cool feature. Some old school gamers, such as myself are willing to sacrifice some visuals if the gameplay and features make up for the shortcomings of visual elements. Maximum Football 2020 accomplishes a lot more this year that last, but fails miserably in the gameplay department once again. There is so much wrong here, that I almost don’t know where to begin or end. Let’s just say it’s not fun playing the actual game of football in Maximum Football 2020. I would at least like to see the fun factor in next years offerings even if the studio doesn't bring it in the visuals department. Football games have a long history and to stand up in that long running history a game has to be fun, like Tecmo Bowl, it didn't look great but it was so fun they brought it back on Xbox 360. This is all the Maximum Football 2020 franchise really needs is to focus on the fun factor and I think it will find its niche. I don't expect retail graphics for the lower price of admission but let's see more fun factor and raise the bar a little more. I think Canuck Play Inc. is headed that direction, this is a young franchisee and I'm sure they have a lot more up their sleeves for next years next generation installment.… Expand

The gameplay is good and the customisation is top tier. The graphics is lower than other sports games but that is because they are working on a way lower budget. The only bugs I have found have been fixed already or can be easily fixed. The only thing I have a problem with is some of the achievements seem to be broken. This would put me off buying another version of this game if they dont fix it.… Expand
