Madden NFL 06 is an American Football video game developed and published by EA Sports released on August 8th, 2005.

Why It's a Playmaker

1. Incredibly deep and fleshed out franchise mode allowing players to take on the role of a coach or an owner.
2. A very immersive and detailed Superstar mode with fun drills and games, giving you the opportunity to take your created superstar from his rookie year to retirement.
3. All new highlight stick which is very useful.
4. Passing cone, adding more realism to the experience.
5. Butter smooth gameplay and framerate.
6. The Burnout Revenge demo is included, which is a very, very early build of the game, has better physics, unused traffic behavior, and adapts the points system from Burnout 3: Takedown.
   • Also, if the player had a saved game of Madden NFL 06, the player would unlock the Madden Challenge Bus in Burnout Revenge (on a new save).
7. Awesome, catchy, and motivating soundtrack of twenty-one rap and rock songs, as well as instrumental music from NFL Films.
8. Very good presentation for the time, with great commentary from Al Michaels and John Madden.
9. More challenging, but fair AI than previous games, both on defense and offense.
10. Extremely addictive minicamp games.

Bad Qualities

1. The Xbox 360 version is a feature stripped unmitigated disaster, due to being heavily rushed to be released for the console's launch.
2. The PlayStation Portable version has a game breaking glitch in Franchise mode, in which the game crashes when the player intercepts a pass during a Franchise game, and when EA was told to patch the game, they refused and told gamers to "deal with it"
3. The player face shapes are more limited than in Madden 2005.
