The Madden team said that they wanted to shut up people complaining about 2k5's game play being more realistic than Madden's, and I believe them. All of this will be answered when I play the game.

I haven't followed all the Pro-tak details but some of the videos make it look like you have to gang-tackle or else you're going to get a lot of Tecmo Bowl type action, shaking the controller to break 4 tackles every play.

Yea, i wanna see the running animations being used properly, I got tired of seeing people turn full speed on a dime in a complete right angle type of turn and not lose momentum.

Thats one of my biggest gripes about madden andit would really shake up the way people play this game and the way angles are taken by the Olinemen who seem to be able to catch DBs when the ball is picked off. Also it would teach those fools a lesson who like to take control of there player and run around in circles until the ball is hiked like its nothing.

I also want to see the make up speed in the game, like I mentioned above, for those who do gimmicks like dont get punished for playing around like that. I hate it when the guy controls his safety and I go to hike th eball and throw it deep and he's there to break up the play or make a play when he was just a few yards away for the LOS compared to where he was SUPPOSED to have been in the first place.

Other than that and the RC no look LBs being fixed then we should be all good if this and the baove have been worked out the way they say it has.

Most of the time you get a pro-tak gang tackle blog, they try to bring out out by using a bigger/more physical running back, like Jacobs, Marion Barber, or Michael Turner where its more likely a gang takle will need to be performed to get these dudes down, because thats often how it is in real life....

As for more elusive backs like Bush, Norwood, Portis, ect...you wont need those gang tackles..

There is already far more than I expected included in online franchise. I would not put it past them this time that it is included. It may be something they are still ironing out but I feel good about it.

hopefully all the gameplay questions will be answered,Madden will be on the floor at E3 tomorrow.

I will be so glad to give my job away to a Mexican after today. This news just severily hampered the productivity in the work place.
PSN- PYA-MUSTANG86, so if any of you want to set up an online franchise in advance just send me a friend invite, I've already started to get people togather.

Will online franchises require all 32 teams to be user controlled?
