Lore & Background

Development concentrated on the series' artificial intelligence, which won critical acclaim, and some reviewers saw it as a landmark for football AI. It was the last Madden for the SNES, Genesis and Saturn, and the last to use 2D sprites on 3D fields. The PlayStation version is included, with updated rosters, in the collector's edition of Madden NFL 2005.
