Since the vast number of games played of MADDEN are played on consoles, I'll bet that most people would be comfortable with using the gamepad controller.

Once you make the decision to learn MADDEN on the PC, you will in short order be confronted with an important decision: One really has to want to play a football simulator to learn all of the intricacies of MADDEN. Because North American football is a rather complicated game compared to say South American football (soccer), the MADDEN NFL simulator is very complex and it has somewhat of an intimidating learning curve.
