M25 Menu Soundtrack

[WiiMaster]

With the "hidden" songs enabled, is Madden 25's menu soundtrack the best out of at least the last 5-6 Maddens?

Starting with Madden 19 it was clear that they were focused only on adding rap songs, but that seems to have changed with M25. While there's certainly several rap songs, there's also a relatively wide selection of non-rap songs, which I haven't seen since Madden 18. This is probably the first soundtrack where even if it can't be modded in the future, I'd be quite happy with.

Hidden songs do make it better but I even think the default soundtrack with the songs hidden is as good as they've done in a long time. Some real heaters on this thing.

It will be moddable eventually. But I agree, even if it weren't I could live with it with the hidden tracks. I don't like rap, but I don't mind it being there as long as there is an even mix of other options though, and this game has that.

Yeah, it's a solid turnaround from where the soundtrack seemed to be headed. They did good.

Yeah, I'm not the biggest rap fan, but a good chunk of the rap songs I do like are songs I discovered through a Madden soundtrack. But I love having the options we have this year.

As for modding, I don't know, we'll see. Honestly M22/23 were the only Maddens to have mostly complete sound modding. M24 didn't get any sound modding until relatively late in the cycle (February), and it was still pretty much just soundtrack modding. And M25 doesn't even have regular modding possible yet (if at all), let alone sound modding. But I suppose there's enough interest that it should happen eventually.

The soundtrack is in a place this year where even with the ability to mod it, I don't think I would even feel the need to replace every single song, there are plenty of songs that I would leave on there, which is a first.
