Madden 17 Doesn’t Know Where the Sun Sets in LA

Madden 17 Doesn’t Know Where the Sun Sets in LA

An observant Madden 17 fan named Eloy and Kotaku have discovered a rather embarrassing mistake in the latest entry in the series. Think for a moment, where does the sun set? Is it in the east or west? The correct answer is the west, unless you’re in Madden 17’ s Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum for an evening game.

It turns out there’s quite a glitch in Madden 17 . Eloy submitted the screenshot above, showing the sun setting in the east over the edge of the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum. What a whoops, right?

Kotaku contacted EA, which unfortunately probably won’t be able to fix Madden 17’ s wayward sun. Instead, a spokesperson said, “Our art team is investigating the issue, and working on correcting it for future editions of Madden NFL . In the meantime, we hope players enjoy this sneak peek into what the world might look like if the Earth rotated in the opposite direction.” That’s a rather positive way to approach things.

All I can say is, good eyes, Eloy! It seems like a really obvious thing, but nobody really caught this Madden 17 mistake until now. I guess we were too preoccupied with other parts of the game.
