Madden NFL '13 is attempting to bridge the gap between reality and the digital game by giving armchair quarterbacks the ability to control the line of scrimmage using just their voice. Kinect on Xbox 360 will gives gamers control over pre-snap adjustments, audibles, and personnel. If these new features work correctly, Madden NFL '13 could immerse gamers like never before.
