The Madden game series allowed me to play and learn the game here in Australia during a time that there was virtually zero TV coverage. I played Madden through my teenage years and it grew on me so much it's now one of my favourite sports. RIP Madden.

I loved those games and looked forward to every release. Without his silly commentary being in the game they probably would have still been great, but it certainly made it a lot better.
Amazing series. It was Madden 06 I think I first played. Did not have a clue what was going on ... us Aussies had zero exposure but my mate knew the game. He'd always pick Vick and kill me on scrambles. I countered with Eagles and McNabb and Steelers and Roethlisberger ... Wow Roethlisberger ... that just makes me realise just how long his career has been and how old I am
Would you say that there are many other Aussies who like NFL? I know that the reverse is not really true here as I don't know anyone that looks forward to Rugby. I do like AFL though and in my opinion those guys might be some of the most fit athletes in the world. The amount of running they have to do in one game is just insane.
AFL athletes are absolutely fit you're right. The endurance and intensity that they keep up with is insane.
Not too many NFL fans here but there are some and when you come across them its great. And those that are fans are more fair-weather to be honest and don't know too much about the game, they're just along the hype of it all
