EDIT: I'm glad you enjoy it (Madden). I'm not against you enjoying it.

i wasn't really talking to you. i was talking to.. some dude with a bunch of iii's in his name that i can't remember.

but i'm glad you're not against me enjoying the game. i don't play madden anymore, cause i'm a skins fan and the team is so different now. it always gets to that point in the offseason. just waiting on ncaa. i don't play the game for perfect cpu interaction or graphics or presentation. i play it because it's the nfl. that's why ea got the exclusive license. suckers like me i guess

i just wanted a link because i thought maybe there was franchise info from this years madden that i hadn't heard that maybe you were basing your argument on.

Phil Frazier posted a blog on the Madden site stating that there would be no significant changes to Franchise this year...they're looking into an overhaul for Madden 12. I don't have a link at the moment, but it's on the Madden site. Just minor tweaking.

I'm not sure if that's what you were looking for...if you're looking for a list of franchise updates throughout the years, that's not that.

Now, I'm excited about this upcoming NFL season cause my Packers have a chance to be a pretty good team this year. That's one of the things that so disappointing about Madden's lack of franchise, and/or franchise flaws. And why I'm a little displeased that there is no competition. Cause this would be a good year for me to have an NFL Licensed game.


I think you can understand my frustration. If there would have been another NFL Licensed game out there, I would be on there site trying to get info. But Madden is the only choice I would have.

Definitely man. I'm pretty frustrated as well. Especially reading about this:

I was really excited about the Head Coach guy joining the team. Real bummer. The most frustrating thing is the features they added are more mass appeal, back of the box type things. Gameflow is something I won't use. Simple as that. I call my own plays. I don't care if my games statistically lasts longer than other peoples. What are the other features? Co-op with three people instead of 1? Really? That's a years worth of work. I like the whole locomotion/body lean thing that's in NCAA and Madden this year, but that's not enough. Hardly an update.

EDIT: That said, I'll still buy the game. Cause I enjoy it. I've enjoyed it since 07. It's been lacking, sure, but I still enjoy the game. I buy it cause I love it. It's that simple

Does not look like a good simulation of the NFL. Look like an arcade game. I am usually hyped for Madden but I don't know this year

I mean cmon EA, if you are going to resort to putting out a game like this after yet another year of development then I truly question the talent of the EA Tiburon development team, and I question the decision making of the EA Tiburon management team. I'm sorry but as customers we don't have to settle for garbage product. These videos look horrible. There's my constructive criticism.

are you the resident whiner for each Madden thread?

in any event..
