I'm on a post replying rampage, and no I'm not trying to get my post count up..just excited as hell.

I know I would pay extra money for an optional DLC for more of a robust highlight show along with what they have already.

Don't ask what I would pay for it because you'd laugh at me.

at least sliders are back this year, so that shouldn't be a problem

Definitely the first step in the right direction for franchise.

Hmmm there's alot of hate coming from your general direction.

But i think the franchise looks really good this year. Cant wait to try it out!

Just wanted to add to earlier thought about why I'd like to have it as stand-alone DLC. 2k5 had basically a Eagles vs. Redskins to a single highlight with very limited commentary. I'd love to see where they could have multiple plays throughout a game that basically told the story of how the game was won or lost. This would require something a lot deeper tech-wise and a lot of commentary to really flesh out the package. I'd give a gig of HDD space to have something a little deeper than single plays and one-liners...

The little things are what really make the game to me.

Gameplay and presentation combine make one half of the game.

The little things in franchise mode make the rest.

correct logic for CPU teams, progression/regression, retirement, all time records, injuries, coaching/GM impacting teams and their off season planning logic, all offseason logic, FA logic, salary cap, the draft, draft classes, scouting, trading and trade logic, correct stats for existing players including pro bowl appearances and RoY Player of the year info., etc.

ADD all time career stats for top 15 in each stat and ADD retirement players into that list and be allowed to COMPARE with current active players, FIX BUGS,

IF the little things were all working in Franchise Mode with good gameplay I would be much MUCH happier then some fancy new presentation or little details like colored cleats.

SO, yeah the little things MATTER!

Wow, and you guys wonder why Ian doesn't come around here? You are so awesome....That's not what I want to say, but you're not worth me getting an infraction.

I think Ian has something up his sleeve and will come up with something for us. either before release or as a DLC. Might not be the best solution but enough to hold us until madden 11
