The lawyers would love it too. Another opportunity to sue.

If that's the case im all about the RTG getting mixed into the Madden series-- Especialy the camera lock on RTG on DEF!

Well if it was as generic as the high school teams in RTG, the lawyers couldn't touch it.

There is no need to start this off with a lie.

good read, there are some things such as the customization and cam options that madden can take away from ncaa i would to see my features when editing a player(equipment and uniform wise) those gloves with the team logo need to make its way over to madden asap

... can we get the NCAA team to incorporate a lot of what made that game different and fun into Madden?

- Some NFL teams have mascots, but there aren't any in Madden.

- The HFA [Home Field Advantage] feature was nice, and could be turned off for those who don't like it. Not every team in the NCAA game had HFA effects, and neither would every NFL team, however, the Chiefs and Seahawks come to mind right away. In NCAA, if youlooked at the coach cam [to see the play art] the routes would wiggle and some would have a question mark above them and not show you the route. Also, I think you couldn't hot route those players either. There were also animations for your team mates not being able to hear you and false stats were more common. The visual effects of a shaky camera pre-snap and everything was really nice. You could also take the crowd out of the game by playing well and racking up points, but in a close game and big situations like 3rd down, it got more intense. Watching the my 49ers fall apart in Seattle last year and earlier this makes this ever more apparent how nice it would be to have in Madden.

- Mass substitutions. This is good for blow outs. You want to bench all of your starters with the push of a button and not having to do each player individually.

- How NCAA handles the no-huddle/hurry up offense. How the Broncos and Pats play football.Well, maybe not the pats so much this year, but over the last two years for sure. In fact, it was big deal in NCAA 11 that teams play more and more like themselves.

I am sure there are more things I am forgetting, but the excuse in the past for Madden not getting these updates/improvements was because they wanted to he two games to feel a bit different, and that some of the stuff in NCAA isn't as common in the NFL. Well, no more excuses EA. You are only making one football game for now on. Let's go!
