The wipes are also just horrendous....Whoever his in charge of that department probably hasnt watched an NFL game

agree 1 millon percent

madden 20 at least had decent "EA"presentation...

OHHH awesome

I dont mind 1080p not ona 4k tv yet

that was ALSO the case with xbox vs ps4

i remeber when i went to xbox one x it was NIGHT & DAY

Just loaded up a quick game on the XSX.

Immediately noticed the player movement difference with ball carriers. It's impossible to not notice it. Turning finally feels realistic. This has definitely been the most notable improvement for me. There are some new animations sprinkled in as well which is nice.

Graphically, it isn't a huge step up but it looks cleaner. The field looks noticeably better, the lighting has improved quite a bit. Jerseys still look painted on (hopefully they get a touch-up next year).

Next Gen Stats (albeit it's early) are actually kind of cool and make sense for a video game. New play call screen is nice too (pretty big, but functional).

oh your xbox series x won't be here for 3 more weeks ? you mean you not able to find one to order it ? blame Ebay scalpers for order more units whenever it restock in stores like Gamestop, Walmart, Target, Best Buy beside Amazon.. Online is awful for people to order it due to stupid bots

Played 2 games, it finally feels “good”, players actually have weight and momentum, Julio Jones routes are crisp and precise compared to lesser wrs. The next gen stats while a good idea are implemented poorly IMO, the replays feature cuts to like 4 or 5 different angles which looks bad. Wish ea would just watch an NFL game and copy that presentation.

Also noticed we are back to no mouth pieces

Graphically bot a big upgrade but the game already looked decent.

I got it on the XSX as well even though I have a ps5. Can’t wait to try this later on.

yep gameplay is solid especially movement, foot planting. i am disappointing with Franchise Mode especially player stats are ridiculous awful like Cam Newton has 51 passing TD with 12 ints.. Elite RB like Derrick Henry and Dalvin Cook had less than 200 rushing attempts with 1,000 rushing yards
