This was my first time playing a Madden Game since Madden 18. Since that time, all I had had seen were sloppy absurd madden clips of errant catches, fumbles not being recovered properly etc etc. Against better judgment, I picked up Madden 24 and found it to be the same usual Madden antics that are alright. There's weird glitches in superstar mode in places I wouldn't expect like with dialog or day to day options your character can choose. As for the gameplay, I will give credit and say this feels the most realistic madden I've ever played (keep in mind my last time touching Madden was '18). I was playing all pro Superstar mode and there was no margin of error for my mistakes. I couldn't play sloppy and not have the consequences come back to bite me in this. I felt the pressure of trying to be a rookie/sophmore qb and being selective and purposeful with your deep and medium throws. In previous experiences, I would just throw Four Verts, PAs and slants but the defense AI mechanics felt tougher in this year's all pro compared to previous editions I've played. X-Factors and Team Advantages were a cool kick too.
