Blast from the freaking past! Madden 98 intro + more

[djordan]

Hey guys,

I remember when my uncle surprised me and bought a Playstation for my birthday and Madden 98 was the game he purchased with the system. When I fired up the game the intro alone had me saying "OMGGGG this is what the game will look like????!!!!!...YESSS!!" only for it not too lol. Having said that, at the time I imagined this was what we would see when future consoles launched. Looking at the video, do you see certain things that you still don't see now.I know its CGI but there are also a couple of cool tidbits...

-Creative intro
-Smooth drop back (39 sec)
-WR/DB play (46 sec)
-Long Sleeves
-Proper foot planting
-Cheerleaders doing the Deion Sanders dance LOL! (2:07)

You know what's funny? I happened to browse youtube for the NFL on Fox theme and I thought " Didn't an old version of Madden have an extended/remix version of the song?". I then remembered Madden 98 with the Madden bus and said "AHHHHHHHHH YEAHH!!!". I tried to look for the download for the music in the video but no dice....

This just shows how important song selection is.

I also miss the old school music we had(the you can do it music). Todays music is lifeless IMO. Just doesn't compare IMO.

Madden needs to do a better job choosing songs that get you excited to play football!

BTW-this song was awesome. Not sure why they don't bring this exact version back for a opening game music. Would be sweet

Bring back custom stadium music like nfl 2k5 and we will take care of it for you EA!!!

Madden 2000 will always be my favorite intro.
