It is slightly funny as long as it doesn't get personal. Some of the sarcasm is just hilarious.

Yes on not being able to edit/create players. Will not be purchasing this year because of this. No imported drafts was almost the deal breaker, but creating players would of been the substitute.

They should put an option to change a player's position at the end of the season. Like if you want to move a CB to the FS position. Or turn a tackle into a guard or something. I wouldn't think it would take very long to implement a change like that.

3 points for graphics, 1 point for the passable commentary, and a half point for the boxart. I can give no further points since the all over the place gameplay would ruin it anyway.

Wouldn't a lack of immaturity mean that the person is mature?

So do you know the tweets he is getting? Do you know if he is blocking people just because they were being rude? See your assuming that they were rude when people have said they asked simple questions and got blocked for no reason. I'm sorry but Josh's "It's My way or the highway attitude" is going to turn people away and make them feel disrespected. So you know the saying treat people the way you want to be treated, well Josh is being rude to people so guess what, he wants to be rude, then they will be rude to him.

Josh can't have it both ways and that's like treating someone so bad and when they start treating you the same way, you get upset at them when the whole time you were doing to them what they did to you. Right now Josh is treating the customers so bad and being rude that when customers starting doing what he is doing to them, he is getting upset, believes he is in the right(not realizing he is being rude back to them) and blocking them.

EA does it again, give them what they want and take away something they had. This movement to online play for everything is really getting old. Now my next door neighbor has to buy a 360 and get xbox live just to play me. It is all about the dollars, because offline co-op will be back next year and guess what another Madden purchase. What ever happened to making a game so good you could not help, but get it? This could have been "THE MADDEN" easily, but realistically they don't want to give you that so you can get Madden again next year. Next years selling point "now you can play co-op with friends"; thanks a lot EA. NBA 2k11 was outrageous, but just because you expect so much, most people probably went out and got 2k12. It may be debatable which was better, but I know everyone has an eye out to see what is up with 2k13. Nonetheless, looks like it is going to be a NCAA year now. At least I can play with my friends around the way.

I have seen them so I'm not assuming anything. While most people do take a more respectful approach, there is the few people that feel the need to say things like "You and the entire EA Sports crew are lazy, incompetent, hacks. You don't deserve to have a f***** job."

Things like that will get you blocked.

People also ask him why stuff didn't make it in but refuse to accept any answer other than "It will be in M13".

This.

I can't tell you how many cases of beer were put away between friends and I over some games of virtual football. It's a real shame that they're clipping the wings of franchise players in Connected Careers, a feature that, otherwise, sounds like it's the God-send we [Head Coach players] have been asking for for years.
