It would be funny if one of them started cheating
John Madden
Can we have a real talk?
I want them see how well they work together in extremely stressful situations… Get Kamala, Walz, AoC, and maybe uh, Sanders playing HELLDIVERS II!
Make them play Chained Together
Overcooked
Geez man I’d rather be tasked with deciding whether to retaliate a possible nuclear strike. That sounds way less stressful.
This I might actually care about and watch.
Omg that would be great. Like maximum everything too…
Sanders turns out to have no idea how to play a shooter game and the next day every news outlet reports that he defected to the communist automatons
AOC fell off. From among us to madden? Come on
Trying to catch a crowd with the biggest net. Should have done super smash bros
Next thing you know she’ll be playing Elden Ring like a fucking poser while using a cheese build like some communist normie.
Nah, I need that real gamer shit. If she doesn’t have a Steam account with 60 games completed, 120 played and 400 unplayed with 1000 hours on Terraria and Stardew Valley each, then is she really a gamer, or is she just some fucking millennial just like I am wait…
Only 1000? Newbie numbers right there.
THIS is how you do fellow kids
What kids are playing Madden, though?
Hundreds of thousands of people.
The fact of the matter is that casual gamers and console owners overlap with Facebook and all generic social media.
We know that we only Lemmy are small, so we should try to keep in mind that our understandings and opinions of generic things in the world are the uncommon ones. Madden sells. FIFA sells. Call of Duty sells. Grand Theft Auto sells. Trying to criticize these outside of Lemmy will only result in losing even more faith in the general public, if that was even possible.
Lots of normies (assuming American normies love Madden as much as European normies love fifa)
My normie friend buys it every year, and acknowledges he paid for an updated sport wiafu roster.
We just say Gaifu now.
Way easier than guessing the spelling of husbando.
Correct
People who lead boring normal lives.
Most people who own consoles I guess the
Hey! I own consoles and the only sports game I’ve purchased in 20 years was the new CFB game, and immediately remembered why I don’t buy sports games unless Mario is involved
The what? THE WHAT???
The poor son of a gun! They never got a chance to finish their
All these unfinished comments are going to drive me to

Scream.
My friend groups are. And the new NCAA game. Video Games and Football, there is truely no greater combination of american values
Sports games are one of the few genres that are couch competition friendly.
What’s NCAA like vs Madden?
I haven’t played the most recent one, or madden for that matter, so this based on experience from about 15-20 years ago but I’m sure it’ll be mostly the same. First and foremost, there are some rule differences. Second, there are different strategies, formations, and plays. Third, you have different players with greater diversity in talent level. Fourth, the teams are different, which might mean more to some than others. And finally, the commentators are different, the last time, they had the cat known for whistling, which was funny. I can’t remember his name.
I bought the most recent CFB, I was both excited for the season and intrigued since it had been 15ish years. It is really polished and cool for what it is, but I forgot I hated it back in day and still hate it now. But it was really well done
A handful of small executive yachts worth of kids are judging by the numbers.
I want Walz under a real stress test. Set this man up on a ranked league of legends match and in a discord group with his team of randos.

Well that did it for me. I’m voting Harris!
Wallz by 21
Madden though?..
It’s probably the game that has the most disaffected centrists playing it.
Plus then it’s a nice tie in to Walz’s coaching background for that group
It just feels like they missed the opportunity of calling this the Dark Souls of Elections.
Pokemon Go to the polls!
Pokémon Go should make all polling locations a bonus Gym or whatever on voting day.
I dunno I don’t play it.
Which year? Because the extremely subtle differences between versions make all the difference
94 on the Genesis
Yeah, it’s not my cup of tea either but there’s a huge playerbase of guys who play the hell out of it. Pretty much the demographic they want to target. As much as I’d love to see them play something like Elden Ring or POE, I think that might miss their target lol.
Are there any crazy glitches/exploits one can do in a modern Madden game that would be akin to taking shots from that one specific spot in Double Dribble where it’s 100% guaranteed to go in?
I wanna see one of them just gobsmack the other with that kinda play. lol
This is refreshingly wholesome for political news. No bullshit or partisan politics here, just people being human and enjoying some entertainment.
So they are both maddening?
rimshot
Thank you, I will be here all week
I respect the joke, but I simultaneously also respect whoever downvoted the comment nearly instantly :)
That’s pretty rad.
I’d give Walz the edge, but EA never made Madden for the Dreamcast. 🤣
Net than the trump ralley they put up on twitch from the trump side.
I flagged that shit for bigotry
