In comparison it feels like a last gen Madden actually now that I think of it. Smooth gameplay like Madden 2005 and 06.
Recently got a hold of the whole madden anthology/collections for my dusty ol' gamecube and fired up 2003,2004,2005 2006 and 2007 and honestly those game had something arcade about them but still felt much smooth than anything we've seen this gen. That was until this edit came along and now it plays so much more smoother.
testers should be more like this instead of bugs looking for things that make the game look smoother and play more realistically rather than "yeah ok i saw no hiccups" yeah ok i didn't see anything glaring'
