Madden NFL 98 PSX - Intro + Gameplay

Madden NFL 98 on Playstation. 1997. Electronic Arts. EA Sports. I'd rather play this than Madden 13.

This game was a big part of my childhood.

[@PokemonTrainerVince]

@maria Hernandez That sounds like a great idea.

[@The7legacy]

+SuperVince93 I can't believe this game was 18 years ago.

Better than madden 2020

[@deshonsquad9085]

Thanks Coach…❤🏈

[@Shirai_Ryu1989]

I miss this Madden game ain’t gotta worry about glitches back then

[@bigb8957]

I remember my parents buying me this game for Christmas in 97. I was 8 years old. I was so excited. #memories

[@eastbayhwd1987]

I got it for Christmas too. I was 10. Good times indeed.

[@dolphinbuc]

What's missing in Madden? John Madden is.

[@brettshepherd5240]

Beat intro ever

[@jacktsang05]

Love the Sprite graphics

[@anthonyl1035]

Don’t know why but always loved this intro.

[@esimpson31828]

Me too bro!!!

[@b206580]

Best madden ever..the players got dirty and pat announced 100yd rushers 100yd recievers and 300yd passers

[@eshoemaker]

My favorite madden of all time

[@robertmurray]

My fav thing to do was knock down the refs and cheerleaders

Man these kids todays and their PS4's with Madden 16 are lucky. But I will say that back in the day, in the Fall of 1997 when I got this game, the first Madden I got for my PS1, I was 15 and I went nuts. Coming from the Madden on SNES, which was fantastic and always a joy to play, to finally getting Madden in 3D was worth the wait. Back in 1997 these graphics were the shit. The Stadiums looked amazing, the players in 3D. The whole look and feel was leaps and bounds above. No I realize these graphics do not hold up today, but we are talking 1997. Getting the PS1 MultiTap and getting together WITH FRIENDS ACTUALLY IN THE SAME ROOM and playing this game after school and on the weekends was great. The times we had, the fights we had to when someone would lose and think they got cheated. It was all in good fun. See their was no internet connection for PS1. So we actually HUNG out with REAL LIFE PEOPLE and played games. Thats what I miss about gaming. Today everyone wants to go online and play with friends instead of hanging out. Even with Madden which is the Ultimate get together and hang out game its starting to change to where people just want to go online and play instead of hanging out. I would love it if someone would play a joke on their kids for the Holidays. Maybe a kid wants a PS4 and Madden or any game. Instead of getting them that, get them a PS1 with Madden 98 and a Bunch of PS1 games like Crash Bandicoot and Tomb Raider etc. It would be hilarious to see their reactions. I would pay to see that video. A kid cant wait for his/her PS4 but gets a PS1 instead, classic.

[@lkumar11281]

Epic Comment. Yeah aughts and teens are the fuckboy era.

[@lkumar11281]

Shit if that kid knows his stuff he would PREFER the PS1. Nothing against PS4 though.

[@prod.bynoodles9518]

You're right, But I miss my PS1. It's long gone and broken..but that's why there are emulators!

[@parkerjohnson2320]

TombstoneChris i was born in 2004 and I still remember playing the hell out of theis game

this game was awesome for it's day.

[@funkyflights]

This game is better than the current garbage EA puts out .... The new Maddens are and insult to sports video games ....

[@lkumar11281]

Definitely, Madden has been substandard since the 360/PS3 versions of 06.

[@funkyflights]

lkumar11281 Exactly!

[@funkyflights]

Totally agree man... 2006 was the death of Madden football ... 2007-2008 were ok on the ps2 and original Xbox, but the 360 version and now the Xbox one and ps4 versions are pathetic .... EA just ported that broken engine

[@lkumar11281]

funkyflights Here's hoping EA takes a giant step in the right direction with Madden 16. They know Montana Football is real so they should step their game up in response.

[@funkyflights]

lkumar11281 ... I'm not gonna hold my breath.... looking at the videos it looks like the exact same game .... Just some fluff added.. Man I hope they lose that exclusive license... I mean my god....

[@bigtone7913]

I'm currently In season mode.Love this game!Remember how we all flipped out when James Brown popped up on the screen at the beginning of season mode!?!

[@matthewertle3810]

And st one point we thought the graphics were Hot

[@bigtone7913]

Live James Brown commentary, the baseball field stadium (forgot what team) ,snow and rain,chunks of field coming up ,players getting dirty,Madden and Summerall at the half ,custom teams and franchise mode!I still play today.

[@rasheemjohnson1647]

Every hit in this opening video is a penalty now

[@Thmusic7]

Man! What memories. I used to get in so much trouble playing this game. It was worth it. Madden for life baby!

[@descandantofabraham1119]

My First Madden 😢😍

[@wronggg]

I still say "loading, loading..." outloud for every game because of madden 98 loading screen. haha thanks for upload

[@kevins9785]

I played the demo version of madden 99.. all I ever did was try to tackle people after the play and get a flag. Ah to be 6 years old..

[@patton303]

Superbowl 32 was Green Bay and Denver.

[@mark224]

But they didn't know that yet. Remember, the game came out before Super Bowl 32. So in the intro they just used the two teams who played in Super Bowl 31.

[@Texasmilitarydepartmentvid9654]

I thought it was Green Day & New England. That was such a long time ago.

[@owenkaleda8509]

@@mark224 no they knew. This was made after that game

[@mark224]

@@owenkaleda8509 No. You're wrong. Madden 98 was released on July 31, 1997. Super Bowl 32 was played on January 25, 1998. Use your google machine, sir.

[@owenkaleda8509]

@@mark224 sureeeee

[@BaoNguyen-iv1zx]

This game literally taught me football lol. I remember I bought it at a used games and books store for $3. I had no idea what it was but my mom said I couldn't buy any games before we went in. This game was so much cheaper than the rest though because it was already 3-4 years old at that point so she gave in and bought it for me. Also the instant replay camera was the first time I've ever seen anything like that in a videogame and I loved it. I was obsessed with that feature of watching different angles and controlling the replay camera. I've been obsessed with replay cameras in sports videogames ever since. Whenever me and my friends play 2k or madden and we pause it to watch a replay I'm always so much more fluid in moving and controlling the camera than they are. Funny enough I have a career in video production now.

[@robbonumba9]

The intro is very misleading for actual gameplay

[@-WitchKingofAngmar]

This was probably my favorite Madden ever. Used to play it all the time until the disc got scratched and never worked again smh

[@beefhamma]

I remember winning a Madden 98 tournament in college. Awesome memories. The kid I beat is in jail now. I hope it's not because of me.

[@becomeanolive1637]

Are you able to tell me if you have ever blocked a Field Goal or Punt, and how do you recover an onside kick?

[@Michaelmaddsicc]

You ruined that mans life lol 😂

[@MrAldunc]

First started following the NFL in 97, Madden 98 was the first NFL game i bought for the PS and I played this day and night... Crazy seeing it now. Awesome game

[@adandelgado4069]

good old throwback

[@Gldtr39]

This game is still better than any madden game released today Except kicking, kicking was hard

[@itiswritten8054]

memories! at the time my brother-in-law and I played every single game that season. we took turns being each team. I remember during week 8 I was at the hospital with my daughter being born. I came home really quick to meet my brother-in-law to play one game and then they went back back to the hospital haha! SF was 7 - 1 and Dallas was 8 -0. I beat him I was SF.

[@mark224]

They should bring back this theme for the current Madden games.

[@adthomp]

I loved this game the booth actually talked before each game about something. back when EA didn't make the same recyled game every year adding and sutracting features over and over again

[@JKlenk48]

Most games back then used .flv or whatever videos to portray cinematic because the discs and compression werent big/good enough to hold the video and game.

[@MultiVince95]

Nice

[@lkumar11281]

vincent marandola why does this video have views at all? There are other Madden 98 videos ya know. It just has me baffled

[@jeffreyg5718]

I used to always play this with my uncle before he passed. This brings back some fond memories. Thanks for uploading. :-)

[@lkumar11281]

No problem, thanks for watching. Love this game though Madden 06 ps2/xbox is my favorite. :)

[@lkumar11281]

Im sorry to hear that. Im glad it was able to rekindle some lost memories. Time flies it seems. :)

[@TheBigChad]

Isn't it considered a monopoly how EA is the only company able to get a license? I think to truly make madden great again it needs competition from like a 2k sports or imagine if it used the unreal engine, either way madden will continue to be shit until someone else is able to make an NFL licensed game

[@manuginobilisbaldspot424]

The Chad I mean technically yeah, but the NFL agreed to it, so exclusive rights agreed upon aren’t the same as monopolizing an industry. NFL is still a business but they effed up.

[@Virtuoso191]

The NFL took its exclusive licensing away from 2K sports for selling NFL 2K5 cheaper than Madden 2005

[@mcj88]

Oh, okay... this was ported to the PS2 in Madden NFL 2005: Collector's Edition as "Madden Vintage". It had modern (for 2004) rosters and uniforms, replaced Pat Summerall with Al Michaels, and could only support exhibition games. Oh, and the menu music was replaced with "American Idiot" by Green Day.

[@Virtuoso191]

This kids today didn't know what he had to endured not having analog sticks. I use press left then right to juke.

[@umadbrojenkins9367]

Back then this game was the bomb everybody loved its animation was fantastic for 1998 "not saying FIFA was terrible" the games were both very badass and nice vid bro ill make sure to sub

[@mr.rashadgrice79]

madden 97s gameplay was better than the others that followed imo.

[@footballroxx24]

lmao, in the beginning it looks good, then it goes to pixels in the real gp.. i used to have this

[@WebVManReturns]

I bought Madden 13 on Wii U 2 weeks ago for $11.99 new. Today, I bought Madden 98 on PS1 for $.50 used. I think I got my money's worth either way.

[@tres311]

78 degree at lambeau?! yeah right not even pre season

[@cjronetwentyseven2937]

conclusion: interception by Green Bay. impressive quick express plays!

[@lkumar11281]

CJR Onetwentyseven I was going for the home run

[@gamingtrucker1]

I been wondering which Madden did the keys to victory before kickoff.

[@thafranchise]

No nano blitz r superman jumps

[@Rabzrabz123]

Looks like madden 25 lol. Nothing's changed

[@robat228]

Fake punt pass worked every time int his game.

[@JazzyUte]

Madden really became stale back in the late 90s with their titles. It wasn't until Madden 64 that they finally abandoned the 2D style. In Madden '99, the graphics were infinitely better. But Madden '98 isn't much different than Madden '96 on SNES.

[@malikahbarfield8556]

why are there body's so big
