I don't remember the last time I was this excited for a video game.

I am impressed! that is a big undertaking. a lot of code will be written! Kudo's to the EA Dev team and Creative management to head in this direction. as a offline franchise player this means 'heart' to me man! MADDEN 12 has my hype to real so far!
Awesome feature list. AI will still be a huge factor in how well franchise mode plays as it directly relates to the ability of the mode to stay challenging past the first few seasons.
But even just a revamp in how things are done is welcome. The mode has been basically the same since 2004 or so - in fact it has probably only gotten slowly worse. A reversal of this, even a small one, is a great start.
Also, this means CPU to CPU trades, right?

Awesome news so far for Franchise! One of my favorite things to do in Franchise is rebuild teams and make them playoff contenders year in and year out, though once this is accomplished I usually start a new one because it's kind of easy stack the team through EA's generic draft classes and you end up with a super roster easy.
Going to be fun rebuilding teams and moving on to others. Looks like I'll work on getting the Bronco's back and adding more depth to the Bucs then start some other rebuilding processes. Best part to me though, is I can take a year off a team and relocate another then switch back the next year.
One thing I would really like for them to do is be able to add an expansion team (basically like relocating) to replace a current team in Franchise. Basically, same process as relocating but all your players are put into the FA pool and you go through a supplemental draft to build up your roster. That way you have to start from scratch big time. Also, would be a reason to add supplemental drafts to Madden and a 2nd tier draft class from NCAA (basically a random set of graduates/declared who didn't make the draft cut).

this is a step in the right direction, but i just have a feeling that when its all said and down that us hard core guys will still see the flaws in the franchise mode and superstar mode. im not one to really wine about the gameplay but in my eyes when you brag about being around for 20 plus years and u still dont have what happens in football off the field and in the front office. you will still have hard core football fans like me ask myself why is this that way and how come we still have this issue and why do i at 60ovrl still start over ed reed and not beside him at the other safety spot

Would be awesome just to have to players, then use roles and maybe even some basic descriptions "Fast burst.... Great route runner with inconsistent hands... Canon of an arm but lacks consistency" and etc, then you base players off how they play and not what all those numbers and OVR rating add up to.
Not only would this add more depth (at least for me it would), but FA bidding and trading would have more impact then it does now. It's too easy to just look for the best OVR player and add them, when instead you can use past season stats, on field performance, and maybe even scout them to see how they would fit in your system. Picking a player based off of how he plays and his strengths and weakness is better then just saying "Oh look, 99 catch and 90 route running, ok your signed."
The list of thing they are finally bringing back in madden 12 is quite
impressive, especially considering they are doing it all in one year.
Madden 12 appears to have more of the missing features returning than
all of the other madden titles combined over this generation of consoles. So, if they can put all this stuff back in, in one year, then what is their
excuse for all the other years and the 3 year plans etc

I really hope we're able to assign positions like they did back in Madden 05. My brother plays with the Saints and loves to move Bush to slot receiver and keeps Thomas in the backfield.
In a franchise mode, i would love to move lets say a TE to fullback or a good receiving running back to a slot position or so. But so far all the info coming in is WIN, i knew that skipping Madden 11 would only make Madden 12 that much better and WOW, game sounds like a dream come true.

Man, good things come to those who wait! Not skipping it this year thats for sure. NCAA however has me wondering. For the first time I wanted to play a season in NCAA and play a season in Madden and import draft classes every year. But the way this is looking it might awesome because that means if your heisman winning QB comes in with a rating you dont agree with then you can just change it! So I think regardless, NCAA is also a must buy just due to the fact that I can tweek ratings on imported Draft classes.

I love/hate to say it, but I am VERY excited at this point. Being able to change ratings in a franchise is huge to me. I love the ebay style bidding on free agents.
This is going to be awesome. I hope this game makes me want to put away 2k5, because no other Madden has yet. Really, really want to play with HD Graphics. I know that might sound dumb to some, but after 2 years with 2k5, I am ready to move back to better graphics.

Although I will say I don't disagree with you that I want to see with my own eyes that these things work properly and there isn't any big issues.
