Another Year, Another Madden
Madden 25 is an American Football sports video game, based on the National football League and published by EA Sports. It was released in late August 2013 for the Playstation 3 and Xbox 360. It was named Madden 25 instead of Madden 14 (after the year, as previous Madden games had) to celebrate it's 25th anniversary in the series.
In the game players can own their own football team. You can move your teams to other cities. Madden 25 has improved the running factor in the game, which in turn has made the game a lot smoother. Just like in previous Madden games you can still choose the plays and the runs. One difference is that you can stop running in Madden 25. In previous games you would run into other people or players. Another improvement of Madden 25 is that the graphics only seem to get better every year. Madden 25 has gotten a lot of mixed reviews.
If people say that video games influence children, does Madden 25 influence children to play professional football? Most kids who play Madden 25 are probably more willing to stay inside and play games and relax in the comforts of the house. So if Madden 25 doesn't influence kids to play football, why should we conclude that other games such as Call of Duty, Need for Speed, or GTA V cause kids to be violent.
