So in my review I mentioned in passing how EA can really take this game to another level. It's going to take some programming work, but here is what I think they can do to actually revolutionize this game, at least on Xbox 1 anyways.

Madden NFL 25 has a few voice commands. On offense you can do your standard adjustments via voice such as audible, line protect left/right, call a time out, and hike the football. On defense you can audible, call a time out. Once I saw this my mind...
