all these issues with franchise player progression and gameplay is why i prefer madden for the ps2, i know theres know comparision with the graphics, etc., but the ps2 version is nearly flawless when it comes to rosters and franchise mode, ive been simming franchises for years on the ps2 and never had a problem ever

i got the ps3 and gameplay and graphics are amazing but some of the limitations with player and roster editing and franchise mode glitches minimize my interest in the ps3 version

so i'll stay with the ps2 version until they fix the ps3 or dont make the ps2 madden anymore

EA PLEASE GIVES US A CUSTOM CAMERA OPTION IN ONE OF THE PATCHES. HOW CAN YOU HAVE A NEXT GENERATION GAME WITHOUT A CUSTOMIZABLE CAMERA ?

I think I got the roster update automatically when I started the game for the first time tonight. I do notice that Favre is gone from the Packers, but he's not with the Jets, Pennington is still on the Jets, and Shockey and Strahan are still on the Giants.

Obviously other additions or features were priority.

Yes but I think the point is not "why is it in last-gen and taken out in next-gen?", the point, to me, is "If they could put it in last-gen, why can't they ADD it to current-gen?"

Then you didn't. With the default rosters Favre is not in the game, only on the all-time team or whatever they call it. Just go to play an online game and will prompt you to download the roster then ust quit the game then load the roster and start your dynasty.

I'm not being rude, but does it really matter? The cameras seem fine to me.

Anyone know if there is a way to get the roster update on Xbox 360 without a XBLive Gold account? I read earlier in this thread that there was supposed to be a way. Anyone know if thats true, and if so, how to get it?
