![]() ![]() ![]() Jets coach Robert Saleh looks like a weird last-gen uncanny version of himself. I'm getting intercepted more, but learning to push and barrel as a running back more too. with some ways I think I'm already exploiting the behaviors. The graphics and physics upgrade that last year's Madden 21 for PS5 and Xbox Series X got in the fall feels a lot more polished now, and player movements do seem more full of normal momentum. Graphics look strong, but in-game they're pretty similar to last fall's next-gen Madden 21 version. The momentum meter unlocks specific effects that impact the other team, which sometimes feel a little artificially imposed (the camera shaking, or wide receiver icons randomly disappearing after the snap). Madden already had this quality before, in a sense: I found my team getting on a roll and opponents crumbling during blowouts. It also means that swings in game energy are very real.

Scott: Another half-step over last fall's next-gen update Just like we did last year, we're seeing how things have changed as we ready for another real NFL season. (Don't they always, though?) We've been playing and these are our impressions so far: Scott Stein for the Jets angle and Eli Blumenthal for Giants. EA Sports has promised big changes this year to the game's Franchise mode and its stat-based performance of players. It's another year, another late August where EA Sports' Madden arrives again, like the first leaves of autumn. Will this be the Jets' year? Will it be Madden's? ![]()
