Madden’s poor choice of soundtracks leaves fans slamming EA ahead of latest edition’s release - “Gone to sh*t"

EA Sports' chosen soundtrack for Madden 24 has been slammed by multiple fans.

This opinion led another Redditor to comment:

“I try to give Madden credit where I can buy god D*MN have the soundtracks gone to sh*t. The Madden 05 soundtrack is still easily the gold standard. 'Same Direction,' 'The Clincher', oh man.”

Another one said:

“06 was lit, had punk rock, metal, and the right amount of rap. Similarly I like NBA 2k14 because the rap is more toned down and more r&b and pop.. Like all of the lights by Kanye, get lucky, and southern. But if you have the NFL themes in the game and the NFL films footage theme by Sam Spence, you could be fine."

Those who pre-ordered the game’s Deluxe Edition can enjoy it starting August 15. Meanwhile, its official release date will be three days later.

With the release of the new EA Sports game fast approaching, more features are being revealed, including crossplay. Like its FIFA and NHL video game counterparts, gamers with different consoles can enjoy the same action.

However, while Electronic Arts has enhanced some of the NFL-sanctioned game’s features, some football fans see no difference from the previous version.

There’s much pressure on EA to make the latest version great because they are in the final year of their license to create the game. However, they can extend it if they can sell a certain amount of copies, per YouTuber Flight White.
