Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. In what year was the first "Madden NFL" game released?

Answer: 1989

The first Madden game was published for the Apple II. It was called "John Madden Football" and originally only featured sixteen teams. It didn't have any specific players or logos, so it was very basic.

2. Which one of these players has never been on the cover of a "Madden NFL" game?

Answer: John Elway

Daunte Culpepper was on the cover of "Madden NFL 2002", Ray Lewis made his appearance on "Madden NFL 2005" as the first defensive player to do so, and Vince Young appeared on the cover of "Madden NFL 08". The "Madden NFL" games have featured a player on the cover since the 1999 game which has a player in the background. "Madden NFL 2001" was the first game not to have John Madden on the cover.

3. What was the first year in which the "Madden NFL" game featured franchise mode?

Answer: 1997

For the first time, franchise mode gave player the ability to play multiple seasons and pick and chose their own players and draft and trade players. The game was also the first game to offer real free agents that could be traded.

4. The "Madden NFL" games have featured NFL Europe teams, at one point or another.

Answer: True

The NFL Europe teams have been on some "Madden NFL" games. The teams that have been featured on the game include Amsterdam Admirals, Berlin Thunder, Cologne Centurions, Rhein Fire, Hamburg Sea Devils, and Frankfurt Galaxy. With the end of NFL Europe, the "Madden NFL" games ceased to feature the teams.

5. Which one of these features is not available in "Madden NFL 2003"?

Answer: Create a Fan

The create a fan feature is not available until "Madden NFL 2005". Tournament mode is when you put you team in a tournament against other teams. Mini-camp is when you do training drills in specific categories. Two minute drill is where you must score as many touchdowns in two minutes as possible.

6. What was the (somewhat annoying) feature that was only in "Madden NFL 06"?

Answer: QB Vision

QB vision was a feature where the player's quarterback would have a lighted area on the field where the player could pass. If the player passed within the area, there would be more chances of a reception, if it was out of the area, there would be more chances of an interception.

The better the QB, the wider the range. Although this feature was available after 06, it was optional and not forced on every play.

7. There are historical teams available in the game (any of the games).

Answer: True

In addition to being able to play as historical teams, the later games have included hall of fame teams. The historical teams do not have player names or actual rosters, but they are still popular.

8. Which team has the best overall rating in "Madden NFL 07"?

Answer: Indianapolis Colts

The Colts have a rating of 91 in the game. The Patriots, Seahawks, and Panthers are all tied for second with a rating of 90. The Steelers have an overall rating of 89. The rating system helps player know which teams are the best.

9. "Madden NFL 09" was the last "Madden NFL" game released for which game system?

Answer: Xbox

"Madden NFL 09" was the last Madden game for the Xbox because "Madden NFL 10" was released for the PS2 and the GameCube and PlayStation no longer had "Madden NFL" games for a long time. "Madden NFL O9" features Brett Favre on the cover in both a Packers and Jets jersey.

10. "Madden NFL 10" saw a drastic change in the game. Because of John Madden's retirement, what two new people became announcers in the game?

Answer: Chris Collinsworth and Tom Hammond

Since John Madden retired from announcing in 2009, Chris Collinsworth and Tom Hammond took the place of John Madden and Al Michaels. John Madden and Al Michaels were the pair that announced for ABC'S Sunday Night Football in the '08 season. In actuality the new Sunday Night Football cast was Chris Collinsworth and Al Michaels in the '09 season.

The original announcers were John Madden and Pat Summerall.
