Mutant Football League 2

“The graphics are a little dated and not the greatest, but the gameplay is leaps and bounds ahead of previous titles in the series (including Mutant League Football on the Genesis).”

“Graphics just very strange like an ugly cartoon compared to the older one.”

“The play by play is the same few lines over and over, the graphics glitch out after half time and the framerate drops when you open packs at the end of the game.”

“Weird, just legitimately unfunny jokes about immigrants, music devoid of any real emotion, talent, writing, dynamism, or hype. How much better the music is in the first game is mind boggling.”

“Fart jokes are never not funny though.”

“A bit buggy but who cares if you enjoy the experience!”

“I would have still recommended it if you liked the first game, but I can't in this buggy state because some of the dirty tricks just don't work at all or cause the game to glitch out.”

“$30 for a buggy game that looks worse and plays worse than its predecessor.”

“The soundtrack, while having a few returning 'team themes', lacked a lot of the soundtrack I liked from the previous title. While I didn't expect songs like 'Coming After You' or 'It's After Midnight' to return, I expected something with the same energy.”

“Also, the music is an absolute joke. After going back to the first game and comparing the two, it feels like how blatantly overly 'woke' ideas in a game feel forced and lame.”

“Weird, just legit unfunny jokes about immigrants, music devoid of any real emotion, talent, writing, dynamism, or hype. How much better the music is in the first game is mind boggling.”

“Unfortunately, this game is not yet optimized for old PCs like mine.”

“Happy to update this review when teething issues with performance get fixed so we can play the game and, of course, more teams.”

“Looking forward to further optimizations and just excited in general.”

“Be the force against the monolith of greed, excess, and monetization that EA has turned Madden into.”

“Microtransactions and monetization destroyed Madden, turning football fans' pastime into a nightmare, where the only innovation and creativity displayed in the game was on how the developers and publishers were going to milk more money out of the consumer.”

“Finally, for the love of god and all that is holy and sacred: do not put microtransactions or purchasable in-game currency into the game.”

“Overall the game is lackluster unless you have someone to play with. I have the commentary turned down pretty much all the way. The only story is their coach/dynasty mode; there isn't much going for it at this point, only holding onto it because it made for a fun time with my friend.”

“No story.”

“Maybe a character storyline in the future of this game franchise would be nice, like Warhammer characters added as well, but mostly just fun to play.”

“Grinding can be a bit tedious and kind of annoying.”

“You'll need a second life for grinding.”
