I was a photographer for the Milwaukee Mustangs during the mid 90’s ...10,000 fans every week , fast action , really fun
Nice to know
Yea I played them they’re last year before the fold Orlando Predators/Jacksonville Sharks
@@trevisturner562 was Jake Grande one of your coaches?
The Milwaukee maverics
Blog it!
I actually rented this from a store as a kid and never returned it. Wonder if the cops are still looking for me
Most likely
We got em boys
Went out of buisness?
its fine that was years ago
Sam Lawson turn yourself in I been waiting
I love how back in the day, when animations and graphic quality reached their ceilling, they put a lot of emphasis on diverse features and physics, such a golden era of sports games.
Back when they gave a shit
I think that's the best explanation for why that era of sports games were so good I've ever heard.
Well they actually had competition with afl ncaa and 2 other nfl games madden had to compete with
It's sad that this game has better animations than madden..
The little things. The shit talking cut scenes etc. makes the game feel more in depth
Fun Fact, aside from the specific Arena Football rules, this game is a nearly exact clone of Madden 2005. I started as a tester at EA Tiburon in 2005. Most of my class of new hires worked on this game (I was sent to work on Madden 06 for unreleased Xbox 360 console). The team that created this game were mostly developers from a studio called Hypnotix (that made the games Outlaw Golf and Outlaw Volleyball), a NJ studio that was bought out by EA. They all moved down from NJ to FL and worked on this game. That is the first game that used the Analog Stick for kicking (this was a main part of their previous games). Most of those developers ended up moving to work on Tiger Woods Golf afterwards (using the same Analog Stick mechanics for the swing).
When Arena football has more features than Madden
Madden take note
Madden is just a horrific game. Id honestly have any other license take over. ESPECIALLY 2k.
ꌚeidon 海神 2k kinda slimey but yeah it would still be better
I came down to the comments to say the same thing
Madden says "I have lots of features"
2k says" Hold my beer"
You keep complaining about appearance I don't get it. They're called head coaches not neck coaches
Best comment ⬆
Lol
Underrated comment. This is gold.
@@s_camp It's the highest rated comment for this video, so I doubt it's "underrated."
@@Gamer2k4 Well you see, 12 hours prior to your comment... It was. Time man. It gets ya
When I worked at GameStop back in the late 2000s I remember an unreasonable amount of children specifically looking for the arena football games and the PBR bull riding games and usually not much else.
I feel like Cabelas Big Game Hunter probably fits into this bucket too.
Cos the arena league was awesome and very kid friendly games(fan give aways and stuff)
I was one. Played this game for years.
So Layne Bruner, the girl at the start, is currently working for Wellthy Soul, a fitness company she founded. Yes she is still very fit and pretty hot. Shout out Layne, she's getting shit done!
How did you know all of this
Chinno Beano dude researchin
Stalker....
The hero we didn't know we needed. Thank you
It's sad that this 15 year old game has more features than today's Madden.
Ryan Tamo if it looked like madden it would be 10 times better
Not it would be trash Madden is trash
Madden 2008 was the last truly great madden.
Jackson Hagaman madden 09 was pretty damn cool tbh
Jackson Hagaman madden 11*
Yo I would play the SHIT out of this game in elementary school
Fun fact:
You can run over the coaches after the play
Riley Hart best part of the game lol that’s all I did
Riley Hart You can while it’s going
😂😂😂
I remember doing that in ncaa football on the gamecube. I would literally play the game just to run over coaches the whole time.
@@stephengalvinjrtrue 666 likes omg
Dude!!!! You missed it Matt Nagy (bears HC) was right there below Ryan Dingle
Glad someone else caught that.
And he was a 90 overall
Fun fact Jay Gruden also played in the Arena Football league and was a HC
Not the only one who noticed...good
I also noticed that
The tiburon brings back memories of old madden create a team
Wasn't just Madden, right? Pretty sure Tiburon did the NCAA games as well
@@trevorb1898 the last NCAA game I played was i think 10? I don't think they had a create a team. Only some franchise thing. But I don't know lmao
Matt Nagy the Bears coach is a QB in this game, he played for the Columbus Destroyers. And Jay Gruden should be in the game as a coach and maybe still a QB.
I thought I was seeing things at first 😂 thanks for the comment
Jay gruden was on Orlando’s team
Yep i saw that too
Matt Nagy went to the same University as I did! #RollHens #BlueHens
At 2:53 I also saw Matt Nagy
2:43 omg Matt Nagy is in this game
Best coach in the nfl❤️
I was just going to say that lol
@@sportsgeek3476 Best coach in Madden Overdrive

RIP Arena Football League. 1987-2019
The Washington Football Team should absolutely be the Timid Yetis
WWE's Titus O'Neal (aka Thaddeus Bullard) is in this game for the Tampa Bay Storm
You know that stuff is fake right?
@@ricjeknings8050 your point being?
@@ricjeknings8050 it's enjoyable
On a related note, Roman Reigns is in NCAA Football 2005, that was the first NCAA game I played too.
@@ricjeknings8050 You're only the 1,007th person to say that.
Did we all forget that Ryan Dingle went to the Arena Football League after he left ugf
The American Nightmar3 I didn’t
Yes
Doesn’t he play for the flyers?
Raishaun Tanner yo legend what episode is that in?
Imagine a game like this with today’s graphics. It’d be amazing 🙌🏻
Back in 2006, we all would think it would improve.......
9:57 when he randomly tackles him a second time cracks me up
I remember going to arena games because my mom always got free tickets from her job. The scores would be astronomical, like 102 to 64. It was so entertaining
Been to both NFL and Arena. NFL is boring compared to the other.
I actually rented this game at blockbuster back in the day and I ended up keeping it after they closed lol. It was a pretty good game
Stole a 2$ game lol
I had about 2 games out I had battlefield bad company and something else I don’t remember
Did you guys not be kind and rewind either?
GoldenGamerG4 Ea aww shit i remember battlefield bad company vividly such great memories
Gjr Hatz right even a new madden back then wasn’t 60 I don’t think the prices raised till ps3 came out
When Arena Football has more famous sponsors than Madden.
Games like this is how EA took over. Shame there isn’t any competition to keep them on their toes and producing quality material again.
I had season tickets to the AFL 2 with my dad before the league folded to give the AFL more money. It was a blast, way more fun that any NFL game I've been to. No big deal but I was elected Fan of the Night twice.
MukBackwards Yo same here
"No big deal but I was elected Fan of the Night twice.
"
Considering you were one of 8 people there, I can see why.
This league folded not it fucking didn't
😂😂😂
“No big deal but I was elected fan of the night twice” 😂😂 I like how you just threw that in
Damn. The sports video game market used to be so cool. You had games for more obscure sports like Arena football & College Baseball. You also had multiple NFL games besides Madden & several college football franchises as well. There was also a lot of cool arcade NFL games like NFL Street and other niche games for kids like Backyard football & baseball.
Yeah sucks we don’t have that variety anymore it was a little something for everyone back then.
“Dingle out here throwing some dots”....😂😂😂
Dingle slings them berries.
😂😂😂
I remember playing this game at a buddies house in elementary school and begging my mom to take me to blockbuster to rent it. It was cheaper to buy it than rent it so she did and it was a glorious day.
Kurt Warner's Arena Football Unleashed was fun too. It was the Midway/Blitz version of arena ball
Timid Yeti, looks like he is in line at the DMV, literally just died 😂😂
Don't make fun of him he's just trying to his ID renewed 😭
The speed of the gameplay reminds me of NFL Blitz!
My city had an Arena football team and I went to a few as a kid and honestly this game nailed it in terms of atmosphere and fun factor
Surprised the sport didn’t stick around like when it was first launched
the sport is actually a great alternative
It's coming back in '24, back in the late 90s and early 2000s, no other off-season football league was touching it
It's still around, it's just that the AFL won't be back till 2024, but the IFL is around, the rules are a bit different and I started going to the games this year cause I go to college in a city that has an IFL but man lots of fun, I'm locking up season tickets for next year. Definitely a great atmosphere and lots of fun!

Please play a series of this lol
I thought arena football was just regular football with a shorter field. I had no idea that it had its own rules. I especially love the field goals being adapted for the shorter field.
"Next time bring a blanket because I'm going to knock you out"?lol
I thought he would of said "put you to sleep" but okay
When the Tackling Physics is still better than Madden 19! Wow!
June Harry You’re wrong and you know that.
Eclipse Fields Haha, Yea Ok 😎
Madden should use euphoria engine, as brackbraker
@@juneharry8908 but you are wrong, you only said that for likes. and its been said to death...at this point its a meme that makes no sense because its just plain not true
MIKEL RIVAS I still play Backbreaker to this day. No tackle is ever the same, the rag doll effect keeps the game endlessly playable!
I loved turning off late hit penalties and going crazy after the whistle. You can even knock over the opposing team's head coach lol
Low key the tackling and all the motions are pretty realistic 😂😂
Another thing I liked about this game (I believe it was this one, since the Road to Glory had the AF2 teams), was it featuring all of the old arena league teams that had existed as unlockables. It was cool unlocking the New Orleans Night with their Zubas jerseys.😁
It's probably better than Madden 19
not saying much. Madden 19 is a pile of garbage
The tackling looks very impressive. It's better than the madden tackling for like the past 5 years lol
The tackling physics are awesome lol
yeah, you can tell that this game is physics driven, not animations and preset shit. like the gameplay is natural.
Hell yeah no question even the graphics and running are better than 19. 😂😂
I've actually been to many Arena games, they're lit as hell and really fun!!
I still go to Green Bay Blizzard games and have been so since they were established in 2003, been a front row season ticket holder for at least 8 years now. They played in the af2 and appeared in Arena Football Road to Glory. The Blizzard now play in the IFL with the Iowa Barnstormers and Arizona Rattlers.
Lol lit
NikeTube Studios AFL still exists?
kinja, Steven M summed it up better than I could. The af2 is pretty much dead now as far as I know and the IFL fills its capacity.
also the game time keeps running and only way to stop the game time is to call a timeout. unlike NFL were the game time stops on every down. I have this game on xbox I play season mode its fun. I didn't see a AFL in real life we used to have a team in Portland or but it only lasted 4 seasons.
I’m surprised how much more fluent the players move and interact with each other, compared to the NCAA & Madden games
6:39 i laughed so hard
"Creepy little Vampire. "
"A zombie that doesn't even look at you."
"A yeti that looks like hes waiting in line at the DMV."
LOL this guys commentary is entertaining as hell.
You should check out a channel called "call me Kevin"
This games main reason for existence is Kurt Warner. Iowa Barnstormers if you were wondering what team he played for.
The barnstormers aren’t even the regular lineup of teams. They’re like a legacy team that you can unlock, but it doesn’t use actual rosters for those teams
And i always thought he made it to the nfl thru nfl europe?
He played in both leagues.
@@JonesMediaMan Kurt was kinda a legend for the Barnstormers in the beginning. Then he went to Europe. Now his number is retired by Iowa and they are set to defend their IFL title
This is the stuff we want to see. Teambuilder and during games I like the cut aways with smack talk and talks with the coach. Honestly it’d be super cool to see this for the upcoming ncaa game. Imagine if you have those smack talk scenes during a rivalry game. It’d be so dope. Also the NCAA game needs teambuilder or I think people might riot.
2:51 hey the Bears coach went 10th overall
When I was little I couldn't afford A new Madden so I purchased this and I loved it 😭😭
please make this a series. I picked this game up for $5 in 2012 after replaying NCAA 06 and watching the trailer for it. Gotta love nostalgia
Just the fluid ness when you’re running is so satisfying
The only complaint I had about the 2 games was the unlockable logos weren't available on create-a-team. I went to my first AFL game in 1990. In fact it was Arena Bowl 90. Here in Detroit the Drive were the first AFL dynasty. Only around 6 years. Appeared in the Arena Bowl each year, winning 4, including 3 in a row from 88-90. I would have loved to been able to use the logo once unlocked then put them in a season. Other than that, I still play this today. Fun game you can jump into and enjoy, or get in depth with.
This time era is when EA was hitting their stride with all games 😭😭😭 I miss those days
Back when they actually had to finish games before they were released
its amazing what having competition does
re: monopolies
Labyrinth9000 nah, minecraft was the best game they made
Good games like the lord of the rings need for speed command and conquer the sims man what happened to ea
I'd love to see an NFL Street game...
8:07 yup, a 5 story office building here in Maitland, FL. A suburb of Orlando. Go Predators.
kevinerosa Orlando represent 💪🏼
I believe I still have this game put up in a box somewhere.
Two things I remember loving most about this game as a kid was running over the walls and knocking the coach down while making touchdowns.
Touchdowns was so easy.
memories of me and my best friend playing all night,laughing at all the stupid plays we would do,and catches we made...
fun stuff
@0:56 Hold up is that Matt Nagy, current Bears HC loll.
Yep. He spent 6 years in the AFL. Actually a very strong QB in the league, passed for over 4000 yards twice, and 74 touchdowns with 8 picks in his final season in 2008.
This would've been an oversight for me if I replayed this game.
He played for the Columbus Destroyers
Pretty sure that coach was Daddy dirtbags actual dad🤣
"Youre a good motivator right?" Lmao.
"So your gonna be scoring on almost all possessions"
Pretty much that's what its like in the AFL. Scores in the 40s and 50s sometimes 60s were common.
I’ve been to an arena football game before. I saw the now defunct Utah Blaze play I think the Iowa Barnstormers
I would have to get Utah Blazed to go watch this.
Jeremy C get off the stage *throws tomato*
Iowa Barnstormers are the best team in at least the IFL and maybe in all of arena football (maybe because theres a ton of leagues and all different rules) but of course both are in my opinion
the madc2004
nah fam lorenzo brown jr and the sioux falls storm are the best team in the IFL
Will there be a vid on All - Pro Football 2k8?
Peter The Panda goat football game
I bought that game 4 times (dif systems) lol, love that game.
Lol I have both these games, and Blitz The League that's another one non NFL football
Dude, this game is great! We had this at the Blockbuster I worked at.
1:03 M. Nagy is now coaching in the NFL with the Chicago Bears
I remember if you reached the championship in season mode, the halftime show would be even better.
Love your vids keep it up man, you are the best youtuber and kept me up during my surgeries
I remember watching Arena football games on Spike TV, it was awesome, I loved it. Didn't really follow it, but it took me awhile to change the channel when I stumbled across it
I used to love going to the San Jose Sabercats game, they were like the Brady led Patriots of the AFL..and they averaged 13k attendance, sucks the owners couldn’t handle the financial aspect
Hey, I just wanted to give you a heads up that EA Sports Rugby exists too
That yeti literally looks like the “mom said it’s my turn on the Xbox” meme XD
I use to live near Orlando , I loved going to predators games as a kid and had a great time at the arena bowl when it came to Orlando . Hope they bring em back someday
This WAS a great game. I loved how you could unlock all the defunct teams
Matt Nagy looking nice! 90 overall flex. Bear down 🐻
0:57 COACH NAGY 🐻⬇️
🐻⬇
I lived in Albany,NY and we had an NHL affiliate called the Albany River Rats...that logo looked eerily similar.
BTW, our Arena football team was the Albany Firebirds. Top receiver was Arena FB’s all time leading receiver, as well as the father of Antonio Brown.
I loved this game when I played it. Its how I found out about Arena football and then watched it on TV. Was very interesting format. I also love when they go out of bounds. This was the closest to a NFL Blizt or Street game that they made.
Bears coach Matt Nagy played in the AFL, you can see his name at 1:05
He's a 90 OVR
Not sure if y'all recognized it. Matt Nagy was listed as a QB. That's pretty damn cool.
I loved this game growing up. I always went to our local Tennessee Valley Vipers arena football games in Huntsville, Alabama.
11:50 UGF flashbacks Intensify
The 10 pick was matt Nagy the coach for the Bears
Last summer I cranked days into my ps2 playing Arena Football RTG!
I literally did the same lol
won the ArenaBowl with Grand Rapids
Arena Football was severely underrated. Loved these games and going to the events was pretty fricken cool too
Gameplay looks better than today's
Bro you gotta play the 2nd arena football game. Wayyyy better. Also arena football was at its best during this time
FACTS!
I used to watch the tampa bay storm games like ever week a couple years ago with my family they were so awesome. its too bad not much arena football exists today but if you ever get the chance to watch a arena football game do it.
Arena for a brief period of time in the 90s was absolutely huge. I lived in Albany NY, home of the '99 World Champions, Firebirds. For 5 or 6 years, the Firebirds not only sold out the arena but we had huge NFL-like block parties before the game all day. Then one day they moved to Indianapolis over night. 😐. Really. The Arena league moved from mid sized cities to NFL cities, couldn't compete and died. And we loved our original Birds like big cities love their NFL team. They put an "AF2" team in as the new Birds but nobody cares about a minor league Arena team and the league itself lost the momentum. Glad you like the game. I'm downloading it. It's hard to describe how much fun and how serious the Arena league was in the 90s. Everyone at school knew the players like the NFL. It's like a different sport when done right. And guys play both sides earning their money. Long live "Touchdown" Eddie Brown.
Don’t forget the AF2 as well
that fight sequence when the qb was hit outta bounds is peak football gaming. it's unbelievable how detailed this game is in comparison to madden today.
“EA Sports Arena Football” threw me off lol.
When the kicker he drafts is actually a close family friend XD
I always loved the Arena Football games. Reminded me of Blitz from like '99 at the arcades :)
This video game brings me back so many memories. My favorite AFL team while playing this game was definitely the Chicago Rush
"Dingle's out here throwing some dots" ME: Dare we say he's throwing Dingle Dots?
Damn what happened to EA. This game looks better madden 19
I loved playing this game as a kid, so fun to deck people out of the field
Greatest video ever. You can’t tell me otherwise. I come back a year later and watch it over and over.
