CPU vs CPU?

[Kalkano]

Madden removed it from franchise, and NHL seems to be going in the same general direction as Madden. So, I'm kind of wrried that CPU vs CPU will be removed from NHL franchise mode, as well. Does anyone know, one way or the other? It's a deal breaker, for me.

Same for me, though I've already pre-purchased it as an import title. The demo does allow it and I'm hoping season mode does at least (if season mode is still in the game).

Any ideas anyone if this is still in the game, especially for season mode and GM Connected?

Well both games still have the coach mode feature which is great, that way you at least feel in the game a little bit.

I correct myself, NHL 13 has coach mode, but Madden 13 does not except exhibition games.

I just want to make sure I can put the controller in the middle, and just watch. And it has to be an option in franchise.

You can position lock as Coach before you start the game. It is one of there selling points for GM Connected as part of the "five ways to play" so it will be available.

I was a huge fan of simulation games like NFL Head Coach 09. Since Madden got rid of coach mode for their new franchise option, I am utterly devastated.

Don't ask me why I felt the need to preface my question with that. So I digress....

Could you point out where I can read more about this GM Connected mode for NHL 13?

Do you mean just watching a CPU vs. CPU game, as a "spectator"?

I just did this last night.
