smrtsmith: Review: Madden NFL 17

smrtsmith

While our copy of NHL 17 arrived safe and sound, Madden 17 was lost in the mail. No biggie though, because as a football fan (the sport moreso than the league these days) I'm willing to shell out for a refresher at the start of the NFL season.
Yep, since week one technically Madden Mobile Coins isn't over yet with four teams yet to play tonight, this review isn't late folks. No, it arrived precisely when I meant it to.
Madden NFL 17 (PS3, PS4, Xbox 360, Xbox One [reviewed])
Developer: EA Tiburon
Publisher: EA Sports
Released: August 23, 2015
MSRP: $59.99
The NFL always has stories, but there are some great MUT 19 Coins narratives this year to distract us from Goodell and crew's shenanigans. The [good] Raiders might move to Vegas. The Rams have returned to Los Angeles. Peyton Manning retired after a Super Bowl victory. Teams are split on whether or not to follow Colin Kaepernick's protest. Amidst the typical bullshit non-story pageantry propagated by ESPN and its ilk, there are real things happening in the 2016 season and Madden is able to capitalize on some of them.
