I remember getting Madden 99 on PS1 and it introduced me to the franchise. Definitely a huge blow to football as he was fun watch on TV while calling NFL games before he retired. I recently watched a documentary on Madden franchise and was amazed how hands on he was with the game developers with using his own playbooks.
Guacamelee is definitely my favorite Metroidvania inspired games. Haven't beaten Guacamelee 2 but hope a third game comes out Axiom Verge is pretty good though I haven't beaten it or it's sequel.
