The long-running and hugely popular Madden NFL series is back with it's latest installment.

The game looks gorgeous on next-gen consoles and has introduced a new defensive system that truly changes a game that had begun to feel a little stale.

But some players have already been on the receiving end of some hilarious glitches in the new game.

One Vine has shown a defensive lineman go flying hundreds of feet in the air, while another has linebacker Christian Kirksey - who stands at 6ft 2in and 16.6 stone in real life - miniaturised to about a foot tall.

Kirksey even tweeted about the incident himself, as they quickly went viral, with the flying lineman seeing more than 6million plays and the tiny play viewed more than 180,000 times.
