That may send these forums off the deep end.

Lord, help EA if it isn't.

Come on, let's not start this. Stay on topic.

Just let the consumer have their opinion, it's should not bother you to the point you feel you can dictate how a Madden or NFL fan spends his or her money to to fulfill and recreational desire.

I don't think it ridiculous at all. If he is not happy with the features that were removed that he liked then he simply shouldn't buy it. No one is making him "have to pay" for anything. How many of these guys that complain about it still go out and buy it and come back here and cry and moan about how bad it is! You knew going in what features/modes were left out! Then you have no one to blame but yourself!

Of course you don't have to buy something to have an opinion on it, No one has bought this game yet and how many people here have formed opinions already?

Perhaps, but how many gamers play or control more than 1 team in an offline franchise any way? That's not a rhetorical question; it's real. I'm curious as to how many offline gamers this will affect.

My guess - more than I think.

Why is there never any modest news? It's either one extreme or the other.

This is horrible news for guys like me who like to play various games on the schedule.

I really can't believe this. Is regular franchise going to be removed?

Seems like a lot of whining and bickering. They have added so much to Madden 13 and yet some people will never be happy. I truly "can't wait" for Madden 13. I can appreciate what they have done and I will definitely be buying Madden 13 and enjoying all of the new features! The things some of you are complaining about are minor details that we can do without. If you are playing with a team, why would you want to leave your team and play with another? I really don't see the big deal. If you want to play with multiple teams then start multiple franchises... ding ding!

We'd have to sim it? That's...that's not good news. Ugh. I'll have to tell my uncle he needs to stay away from the game since he doesn't have xbox live. Here's a list of thing people without Xbox Live won't get: Updated rosters in any form (USB trick won't work any more) The ability to edit rosters The ability to play with more than one team The ability to play or watch a CPU vs CPU game in CC Oh, and patches, but they couldn't get that in the first place EA basically just told him:

Yeah I know no one cares but you CAN still user control any team you want as long as it's outside of CC (eg, play now). While I'm not happy that these changes are being made, to me they are relatively small. Even though I did use edit rosters a lot, if the new rating progression system works like it's supposed to that won't be as much of a problem. I'd like to play the mode before I judge it.
