Madden NFL 11 Hands-On Impressions (Kotaku)

Well I think gameflow is going to be a ok feature and all. But I'm really waiting to see what they have done with offline franchise mode then anything. I really doubt I will every use the game flow and all. I never did like using ask madden. I wheather choose my own plays instead.

I second that. I want to know what details went into the offline franchise.

Are you aware that you can call the plays you want before the game starts? You can have the CPU call the plays if you want, but Gameplan allows you to call the plays before the game starts.

Sounds to me you just think the CPU calls the play for different situations.

Dual stick control is technically six years old.
There was this game that had it, I can't remember it's name, b/c it was on the original XBOX.

$20.00 says the "Locomotion" engine is total ********.

Why would I want to call plays before a game starts?

If you are a sim player, teams study films on Monday and Gameplan on Tuesdays or Wednesdays.

On Thursdays and Fridays, it's usually walkthrough's of the Gameplan you are calling.

Wow did you REALLY ask this question? You don't think real coaches call plays before a game starts? Gameplanning ring a bell bro?

I couldn't be happier about Gameflow because it's putting more NFLHC features into Madden which is what alot of us simmers and stat junkies really wanted.
