In real life, coaches can challenge and demand an instant replay of nigh-on any aspect of every play, twice per match. In ESPN NFL 2K15, coaches could challenge and demand an instant replay of nigh-on any aspect of every play, twice per match. In Madden NFL 16… sometimes there’s an option to challenge the spot of the ball, or an incomplete pass. Often, there’s no way of knowing exactly what you’re even challenging. Brilliant.
“At the very least, the challenge option should specify what element(s) of the play will be reviewed,” assesses blogger Mega Bears Fan . “So the option shouldn’t just say ‘Challenge play’, but ‘Challenge the spot of the ball’, or “Challenge the fumble”. Elements that can be challenged should include spot of the ball, stepped out of bounds, down by contact/fumble, catch/no catch, catch in/out of bounds, incomplete pass/fumble, illegal forward pass, and hit while the arm was moving.”
GR verdict: A salient reminder that an 11-year old PS2 game still does some things better than modern Madden. Detail is everything, and this is a critical series addition.
