Tiny football player excuses any glitch in Madden NFL 15

Add as a preferred source on Google

Madden NFL 15 is a great game, really one of the best that EA Tiburon has produced in a long, long time. It’s not perfect though. Sometimes, the passing game feels like it trades away too much accessibility in the name of realism. Other times, ball carriers trip up around seemingly impossible physics.

And still other times, Cleveland Browns rookie linebacker Christian Kirksey shrinks down from his 6-foot-plus stature into a foot-high micro-player.

Why is this so funny? Tiny things often are, especially when their extreme diminutiveness is highlighted by the normal-sized world that surrounds them. In this case, a professional NFL player that’s no taller than an actual football gives his full effort in a game populated by comparative giants. It doesn’t get much more perfect than this.

Check out the video above, from YouTuber Shake4ndBake, for a hilarious look at the glitch in action. Thanks as well to SBNation for sharing this crazy thing in the first place.

Madden has been available on phones for years, but its mobile versions have never offered the same depth as the main console games. EA is now bringing a more substantial version to Apple Arcade through Madden NFL 27 Arcade Edition, which launches on August 6.

As per EA, the game focuses on full NFL seasons, franchise management, and 11-on-11 matches. Players can manage trades, free agency, and roster changes before taking their team through the regular season and playoffs. Quick Play is also included for anyone who wants to skip the management side and start an exhibition match.
