"A feature that may not receive a ton of publicity, but well warrants it, is the return of a full 32-team offline dynasty. Players are able to create one owner, coach, or player for every team in an offline dynasty and easily switch between each option using the right-analog stick."


Sounds great !!!!

Fans lashed out at the lack of a “franchise” mode, but most didn’t realize that Connected Careers was exactly what they were looking for in Madden NFL 13.

People really still believe this was the case, huh? Many realized perfectly well what Connected Careers was and, no, it wasn't "exactly what they were looking for."

That gripe with the poor reasoning aside, THIS is what many of us were looking for:

One of the most beloved features in the long history of Madden has been Owner Mode, and you’ll be happy to know that it’s returning this year.

It’s a great way to try out multiple positions or to try and feel how different teams can work out using various schemes.

One of the more beloved features in the NCAA Football series roster import/export option wasn’t available last year. Though EA SPORTS added a fantastic list of hand-crafted fake rosters for players to use with unique stories, fans ultimately wanted the ability to draft players from their Dynasty within NCAA Football. That feature is back this year and will be available to use within both online and offline dynasties.

Now, it obviously remains to be seen how well it all actually works, but they've got the right idea, at least.

EDIT: Just saw the menus and I like what I see there as well. From the advisers to responding to the media, there seems to be a lot of potential here.

Superbowls are won based on this decision, be wise ! Seriously, i hope we can assign the food stuff to the CPU.

If that is the Superbowl celebration from previous maddens then fine but if it from M25 then, the trophy is still dull matte grey and the celebration is the same. Makes winning the SB feel pointless.

This is how felt while watching/reading the article

One thing I thought of while reading was, how is building a new stadium going to work?

Will there be different process for stadiums? For example if I want to build a new stadium for the browns can I build a Jerry Jones like "palace" in Cleveland or will I be limited on what I can build based on the money I have.

And to what extent will stadium upgrades go. Will it actually affect anything or will it be pointless like in earlier iterations of Madden.
