    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 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

    A huge improvement over last years title. The Canuck Play dev team actually listens to and interacts with their audience and continues to outshine their AAA budget busting counterparts, despite having less than 5 members. Doug Flutie's Maximum Football is the 'UnMadden', and that's a good thing.

Doug Flutie's Maximum Football is the 'UnMadden', and that's a good thing. Although the game is just above bare bones football on the field, its refreshing to play a football game that takes it back to the basics as Canuck Play continues to build on a solid foundation. The physics based tackling system, the deep college dynasty mode, the play creator, the logo creator, etc. will have you immersed in the game for hours and hours, what more could a Football SimHead ask for?… Expand

    This game has vast improvements from last year!

    I feel like Maximum Football has finally delivered what we all have been waiting for. A physics based simulation football game. 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 andI feel like Maximum Football has finally delivered what we all have been waiting for.

    I’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.

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

    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.
