Most people remember Ludacris' Madden 2000 theme which still stands as one of the most memorable intros to a sports video game ever. What people may not realize is that the 2000 theme helped usher in a new era of music in sports gaming. Michael Finch takes a look at Madden's role in presenting music and also asks for your feedback as well!

Quote:

"Music and sports games have developed a very unique relationship over the years, and no other sports franchise is more synonymous with music than the Madden NFL series. Ever since the start of this decade I can’t seem to get over the fact that as Madden grows, the soundtrack of the game blooms with it. Over the past years, Madden has jump started the careers of many artists that you hear on the radio today -- which makes sense because when Madden releases, you have millions of people listening to songs that usually aren't even surfing the airwaves yet."
